## Abstract We have recently found that aphidicolin, a tetracyclic diterpeneβtetraol produced by several fungi, blocks DNA synthesis of sea urchin embryos by interfering with the activity of DNA polymerase Ξ±. These cells fail to proliferate in the presence of aphidicolin. In continuation of these

The temporal coordination of histone and DNA synthesis in mouse eggs and preimplantation embryos were examined. In unfertilized mouse eggs arrested at metaphase 11, histone synthesis was observed, but at lower rates than previously reported for fertilized zygotes. Cytosine arabinoside, an inhibitor
We have shown that antisense oligonucleotides can be targeted to hepatitis B virus (HBV)-infected cells, resulting in specific inhibition of viral protein synthesis and replication in vitro. The targeting system was based on the internalization of DNA complexes by highly selective receptors for gala
