Cytotoxic effect mediated by expression of VSV M proteins.

Abstract

<p>BHK-T7 cells were transfected with pTM1 empty (mock), pTM1-M1, pTM1-M2 or pTM1-M3 for 2 h. Cells were then washed and incubated in DMEM containing 5% FCS until they were fixed at 6, 18 and 24 h post transfection (hpt). Cell morphology was examined with a phase-contrast microscope.</p
