Abstract

The genome structure of the long, truncated defective interfering particle derived from the heat-resistant strain of vesicular stomatitis virus has been examined. Stocks of this defective interfering particle are shown to contain several different species having information primarily from the 3' half of the vesicular stomatitis virus genome; the proportions of these components vary depending on the passage history of the stock. The two most abundant types have been identified and characterized. One has complementary 5' and 3' termini and consequently appears as a circular molecule when examined by electron microscopy. The other cannot circularize and remains linear. The circular forms are consistently 8 to 10% longer than the linear molecules. Rapid sequencing analyses reveal that both forms retain the 5' parental viral terminal sequence, but only the linear form retains the parental 3'-terminal sequence which is the complement of the 5' end. Hybridization experiments and electron microscopic analyses indicate that the linear form has retained 320 to 350 nucleotides of the 5' parental sequence and was probably generated by an internal deletion of the vesicular stomatitis virus genome.
