Structure of the joint region and the termini of the DNA of herpes simplex virus type 1

M J Wagner et al. J Virol. 1978 Aug.

Abstract

Analysis of restriction endonuclease cleavage sites within the inverted, repeated sequences in the joint region of the DNA of herpes simplex virus type 1 strain KOS revealed the presence of two types of sequence heterogeneity. The first was an insertion of 280 base pairs or multiples of 280 base pairs which was found in approximately half of all DNA molecules from every plaque-purified stock of virus. These insertions seemed to be tandem duplications of sequences which were present at the joint and correspond closely to the inverted terminal redunancy. The second type of heterogeneity was due to variable insertions and deletions which were present in some, but not all, plaque-purified virus stocks. Comparison of restriction fragments from the joint region with fragments from the termini indicated that in the simplest observed molecules of herpes simplex virus type 1 DNA, only one copy of the inverted terminal redundancy was present at the joint. A map of restriction endonuclease cleavage sites in the joint region is presented.
