Description:
A stable cell line expressing a complementary DNA clone encoding the vesicular stomatitis virus glycoprotein fused and formed polykaryons at pH 5.5. The formation of polykaryons was dependent on the presence of glycoprotein anchored at the cell surface and could be prevented by incubation of cells with a monoclonal antibody to the glycoprotein. Fusion occurred at a pH 0.5 unit lower than that observed for cells infected with vesicular stomatitis virus.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Florkiewicz, R Z -- Rose, J K -- 1 F32 AI06911-01/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- AI15481/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- CA 14195/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1984 Aug 17;225(4663):721-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6087454" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
