The DNA of varicella-zoster virus (VZV) has been characterized by sucrose gradient sedimentation, restriction enzyme cleavage with either EcoRI or HindIII site-specific endonucleases, and by isopycnic banding in caesium chloride. Comparisons of the DNAs from different clinical isolates have been made. DNAs from VZVs isolated from either varicella or herpes zoster are indistinguishable on the basis of size and restriction enzyme cleavage pattern. The buoyant density in caesium chloride of the DNA of VZV isolated from varicella was reproducibly slightly lower than that of the DNA of VZV isolated from herpes zoster.
水痘带状疱疹病毒（VZV）的DNA已通过蔗糖梯度沉降、用EcoRI或HindIII位点特异性内切酶进行限制性酶切以及在氯化铯中的等密度离心进行了表征。已对来自不同临床分离株的DNA进行了比较。从水痘或带状疱疹中分离出的VZV的DNA在大小和限制性酶切模式上无法区分。从水痘中分离出的VZV的DNA在氯化铯中的浮力密度始终略低于从带状疱疹中分离出的VZV的DNA的浮力密度。
