Is cytoskeleton involved in vesicular stomatitis virus reproduction?

J Virol. 1980 Jun;34(3):777-81. doi: 10.1128/JVI.34.3.777-781.1980.

Abstract

CER cells infected with vesicular stomatitis virus showed a morphology similar to that observed after cytochalasin B treatment. Temperature-sensitive mutants affected in envelope protein maturation did not induce those morphological changes at a nonpermissive temperature. In addition, the cytoskeleton was not implicated in vesicular stomatitis virus reproduction.
