title: Hybridization of herpes simplex virus DNA and human ribosomal DNA and RNA.
abstract: A small DNA segment from the inverted repeats at the termini of the unique long sequence region of herpes simplex virus DNA was found to hybridize with human 28 S ribosomal DNA and RNA but not 18 S ribosomal DNA and RNA. The hybridization occurred under stringent conditions and was not blocked by nucleic acids high in guanine plus cytosine content. These data strongly suggest that the hybridization represented authentic base sequence homology.
