<D. Baltimore> is the first author, with <A. S. Huang> and <M. Stampfer>, of a 1970 study showing <RNA polymerase> activity in <vesicular stomatitis virus> <virions>. The enzyme incorporated <nucleotides> into <RNA> complementary to the viral <RNA>. This distinguished the genetic information carried by a <virus> from the working molecular machinery packaged with it.<Ribonucleic acid synthesis of vesicular stomatitis virus, II. An RNA polymerase in the virion by D. Baltimore and others>[Abstract; PNAS 66, 572–576, 1970]{ref}
