Herpesvirus proteins: induction of nucleoside phosphotransferase activity after herpes simplex virus infection.
After herpes simplex virus infection of hamster kidney cells there is an induction of nucleoside phosphotransferase activity which can utilize AMP as phosphate donor. The activity is immunologically specific for the infected cell and is induced concomitantly with the virus-coded pyrimidine deoxynucleoside kinase activity. Phosphotransferase activity is not induced in cells lacking both thymidine and deoxycytidine kinase activity.
