title: Cytomegalovirus: nucleocapsid assembly and core structure.
abstract: New ultrastructual aspects of cytomegalovirus nucleocapsid assembly are illustrated in cells from a Kaposi sarcoma. The occurrence of viral deoxyribonucleoproteins in the form of strands and penetration of these strands into open capsids is illustrated. The geometrical arrangement of the core material of the nucleocapsid is aslo emphasized.
