title: Impairment of host cell ribonucleic acid polymerase II after infection with frog virus 3.
abstract: Evidence is presented that, in frog virus 3-infected BHK cells, inhibition of ribonucleic acid (RNA) synthesis is paralleled by a decreased activity of host cell RNA polymerase II, while the template ability of host cell nuclei and chromatin is unaffected.
