Abstract
The C-type particles observed by electron microscopy in PK-15 cells were demonstrated to have biochemical and biophysical properties associated with the oncornavirus group: density of 1:16 in a sucrose gradient, 70S RNA, and the RNA-dependent DNA polymerase. The group-specific interspecies antigen, gs-3, was not present. Evidence of a latent infection with a porcine parvovirus was also obtained.
