Abstract

The morphogenesis of Yaba monkey tumor virus (YMTV) was investigated in a cynomolgus monkey kidney cell line. YMTV has been shown to grow less rapidly in high-passage cells (i.e., 65 passages) than in low-passage cells (i.e., between 30 and 60 passages). This prolonged growth cycle in high-passage cells allows for a more detailed analysis of the events in morphogenesis. Samples of YMTV-infected cells were prepared for analysis at 2, 3, 4, and 5 days postinfection. At least 12 “stages” of virus morphogenesis can be identified.
