Abstract

Under specified growth conditions, simian virus 40 encapsidated host DNA in a noncircular form free of viral DNA. Two bands of virus particles were present in cesium chloride equilibrium density centrifugation. The host DNA species contained in the upper band was of a lower molecular weight than the DNA present in the mature virus in the lower band.
