Abstract
For the baboon endogenous virus to infect human cells a specific region on chromosome 6 is required for viral DNA replication and integration. In studying the kinetics of baboon endogenous virus DNA replication we show that linear DNA was synthesized as the predominant species after infection and that unintegrated DNA persisted after many cell passages. Examination of integrated DNA revealed the failure of the virus to integrate at early passages. With continuous replication, however, virus integration was observed, but at multiple sites in the host cell.
