title: Decreased transforming ability of a temperature-sensitive mutant of human adenovirus type 12.
abstract: A mutant of human adenovirus type 12, temperature-sensitive for virus replication an for the enhancement of thymidine incorporation in resting human embryonic kidney cells, is described. The mutant was also temperature-sensitive for transformation of rat cells. The results indicate that a viral gene required for the virus growth cycle is also required for transformation.
