title: Replication of canine herpesvirus. II. Virus development and release in infected dog kidney cells.
abstract: The studies reported in this paper demonstrate that, although canine herpesvirus differs from other herpesviruses in that it is characterized by a restricted host range, the pattern of virus development in the permissive host closely resembles that previously described for herpes simplex virus. These experiments also reveal the formation in the infected dog kidney cells of a system of tubules and channels in which virions accumulate. It is suggested that these membrane-bound structures serve to protect enveloped virus from being uncoated in the cytoplasm and function in virus release from the infected cells.
