“…These rods are indistinguishable from the helical nucleocapsid of measles virus (16). Similar measurements are given for other myxoviruses, e.g., canine distemper virus (9,17). The additional coating around each cytoplasmic nucleocapsid may correspond to that observed by other workers to be associated with isolated nucleocapsid (2, 23).…”

Replication of Edmonston strain of measles virus in cultures of hamster central nervous system tissue was studied by electron microscopy of ultrathin sections. Infected cultures were fixed from 3 hr to 39 days postinoculation (PI). Measles nucleocapsid was first seen within the cytoplasm of giant cells, the latter appearing 5 to 6 days PI. Measles virus particles were most abundant at 10 days PI and appeared to bud off from areas of the cell membrane along which nucleocapsid was aligned. Intranuclear nucleocapsid was more abundant at later stages, and by 39 days PI entire nuclei were seen to be occupied. By this time, the cytoplasmic formations, which had been sequestered by membranes, appeared to lose their regular structure. Budding viral particles at 39 days PI were of a much simplified structure and did not involve the alignment of nucleocapsid about their periphery.

“…These observations indicate a remarkable resemblance of the fine structure of the measles virus particle to that of myxoviruses; in particular, the structure of the internal component coincides with that of large myxoviruses, such as mumps, Newcastle disease, and parainfluenza (55,144). The viruses of rinderpest (97, 145) and distemper (23,89,145), which have been found to be closely related to measles virus, have the same fine structure of their virion as measles virus.…”

“…Electron photomicrographs of CDV by CRUICKSHANK et al (1962) andNORRBY et al (1963) showed that their structure resembled that of the larger myxoviruses. There was a great variation in shape, but many particles were almost spherical ( Fig.…”
