Host Cell Nuclear Function and Murine Hepatitis Virus Replication

Abstract
Murine hepatitis virus strains A59 and JHM replicated with equal efficiency in nucleated and enucleated mouse L2 cells. Treatment of the host cell with actinomycin D or .alpha.-amanitin, both inhibitors of host cell RNA synthesis, had no effect on virus replication. The replication of murine hepatitis virus did not appear to depend on either the presence of the host cell nucleus or continued host cell RNA synthesis.
