Suppression of the temperature-sensitive phenotype of a mutant of reovirus type 3.

A revertant of a reovirus group A temperature-sensitive mutant was crossed with wild type. More than 50 percent of the progeny were temperature sensitive. In all of the temperature-sensitive progeny examined by recombination tests, the temperature-sensitive lesion was in group A. The results indicate that the revertant was phenotypically suppressed.

Mammalian orthoreovirus 3↗

Genome RNAs and polypeptides of reovirus serotypes 1, 2, and 3.

The virus-specific double-stranded genome RNA and polypeptides present in virions and cells infected with the three mammalian reovirus serotypes have been examined by co-electrophoresis in several different polyacrylamide gel systems. The double-stranded RNA and polypeptide species previously described for type 3 Dearing were found to have corresponding species in the other serotypes examined. In each serotype several RNA and polypeptide species were found to have different electrophoretic mobilities from the corresponding RNA or polypeptide species of type 3 Dearing. The combination of electrophoretic variants among the RNAs and polypeptides of the reovirus serotypes gave electrophoretic markers in all 10 of the reovirus genes. The usefulness of these electrophoretic markers in "mapping" the reovirus genome is discussed.
