Virus-like particles (VLPs) used as vaccine antigens often elicit strong immune responses due to their intrinsic repetitive, high-density display of epitopes, and the fact that the mammalian immune system is highly attuned to recognizing particles in the size range of viruses (20-150 nm). To retain
## Abstract Oncornavirus‐like particles observed and purified from HeLa cell culture supernates have a density in sucrose of 1.16‐1.17 g/cm^3^. They contain DNA polymerase and ribonuclease activities with properties characteristic of reverse transcriptase and ribonuclease H of known oncornaviruses.
