The inactivation of Semliki Forest virus by hydroxylamine was a first-order reaction. The ability of the partially inactivated virus to induce the production of infective virus, virus haemagglutinin, virus-induced RNA synthesis, virus-induced RNA polymerase and interferon were all inactivated with first-order kinetics. It is concluded that functional nucleic acid is essential for interferon production in this system.
