In this paper we present a technique developed to physically locate the HSV-1 gene(s) which restore neurovirulence to a non-neurovirulent HSV intertypic recombinant described in the preceding report. In brief, tissue culture cells are co-transfected with unit length RE6 DNA and restriction endonuclease fragmented HSV-1 (strain 17 Syn+) DNA. In this way, random recombinations between RE6 and 17 Syn+are produced. Anin vivoenrichment in mouse brains is then employed to select recombinants which have incorporated the HSV-1 gene(s) associated with neurovirulence. In each of five cases where neurovirulent recombinants were isolated by this procedure, restriction enzyme and Southern DNA transfer analysis revealed that HSV-1 information from 0.71 to 0.83 map units had been incorporated into the RE6 genome. Confirmation of the role of this portion of the genome for HSV neurovirulence was obtained by similar cotransfection andin vivorescue experiments performed with an electrophoretically purified HSV-1 DNA fragment which encompasses this region. Subsequent genome structure analysis of neurovirulent recombinants generated by this procedure revealed that only type-1 information from 0.71 to 0.83 map units had been incorporated into RE6. Thus an HSV-1 gene function(s) which resides in this region of the viral DNA is associated with a 10 million-fold increase in the neurovirulence of the virus. Potential applications of thisin vivoselection technique are discussed.
