Abstract

Reovirus messenger RNAs are degraded faster in crude extracts (S30) from mouse Ehrlich ascites tumor cells which have been treated with either a partially purified interferon preparation or the interferon inducer poly(I).poly(C) than in corresponding extracts from untreated cells. The faster degradation appears to be a consequence of endonuclease action. The endonuclease activity invitro depends on the presence of double-stranded reo-virus RNA in the reaction mixture.
