Abstract
Simian tumour virus SV40 induces transformation of primary cultures of cercopithecus monkey kidney cells. The cells become highly vacuolated, complement fixing viral antigen is formed and the cells become resistant to the cytopathic effects of the virus. It is probable that a persistent association develops between the cells and the virus genome.
