| Abstract: | Experiments were carried out to determine if pretreatment of cells with N-Methyl-N'-Nitro-N-Nitrosoguanidine (a potent alkylating agent known to induce DNA repair) would affect Herpes Simplex Virus Replication. The data demonstrated a 1.5 fold increase in virus yield, a 2 fold increase in HSV specific TK activity and no change in HSV specific DNA polymerase activity in MNNG treated cultures. The effects of MNNG treatment on virus replication and enzyme expression are discussed. |
