Three-dimensional structures of the core of Marek's disease virus and herpesvirus of turkey were examined by the tilting apparatus of an electron microscope. Various types of the core found in the infected cells were considered to represent developmental stages of the viruses. The basic structure of the core consisted of a toroid surrounding a cylindrical mass, which was clearly demonstrated by tilting the core in two directions. A cylindrical mass spooled by more than two toroids, which seemed to constitute a spiral band of 10 to 20 nm, was demonstrated. The maturation process of the cores of the viruses was also discussed.
利用电子显微镜的倾斜装置对马立克氏病病毒和火鸡疱疹病毒核心的三维结构进行了研究。在受感染细胞中发现的各种类型的核心被认为代表了病毒的发育阶段。核心的基本结构由围绕着一个圆柱形团块的环形结构组成，通过在两个方向上倾斜核心得以清晰显示。还展示了由两个以上环形结构缠绕的圆柱形团块，其似乎构成了一条10至20纳米的螺旋带。文中还讨论了病毒核心的成熟过程。
