The thymidine kinase inducing ability of 104 strains of herpes simplex virus was studied comparatively. A pronounced relationship was established between induction of the enzyme and the serotype of the strains. As a rule, the strains of serotype 2 are weaker inducer of dThd- and dCyd-kinase activity than serotype 1 strains. A certain parallelism exists between induction of both enzymes, however the activity of the thymidine kinase increases after infection with herpes simplex virus 4--5 times more than that of the dCyd-kinase. Adaptation of the strains to cell cultures only slightly modifies the inducing ability of the herpes simplex virus strains. The thymidine kinase activity induced by HSV-1 and HSV-2 differ from each other and are different from the cell enzyme with respect to their thermal stability at 40 degrees C. These differences are expressed more clearly in the presence of 480 muM dThdMP during inactivation. dThdMP stabilizes the type 1 but not the type 2 enzyme.
