The Mechanism of Adenovirus DNA Replication and the Characterization of Replication Proteins

  • Chapter
The Molecular Biology of Adenoviruses 1

Part of the book series: Current Topics in Microbiology and Immunology ((CT MICROBIOLOGY,volume 109))

Abstract

The replication of the genome of human adenoviruses in permissive host cells is a highly efficient process. During the infection cycle a total amount of viral DNA is synthesized comparable to the entire chromosomal DNA content of the infected cell. In order to unravel the mechanism of adenovirus DNA replication this process has been studied in a number of experimental systems.
