The twisted circular form of polyoma viral DNA
Abstract
The major part of the DNA from polyoma virus has been shown to consist of circular base-paired duplex molecules without chain ends.(1-3) The intertwined circular form accounts for the ease of renaturation(4) of this DNA and the failure of the strands to separate in strand-separating solvents.(1-3)
