Poliovirus infection and poly(A) sequences of cytoplasmic cellular RNA.
نویسنده
چکیده
The influence of polio infection on Poly(A) sequences of cellular cytoplasmic RNA was investigated. In the presence of guanidine, cellular protein synthesis was still shut off after poliovirus infection, although there was no viral RNA synthesis. The Poly(A) of these cells was unchanged with respect to quantity, size, and linkage to cellular cytoplasmic RNA. This finding strongly suggests that the shut off of cellular protein synthesis is not caused by a change of the Poly(A) sequences of cellular mRNA.

The content, size, and mechanism of synthesis of 3'-terminal poly(A) on the various intracellular species of poliovirus RNA have been examined. All viral RNA species bound to poly(U) filters and contained RNase-resistant stretches of poly(A) which could be analyzed by electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gels. At 3 h after infection, the poly(A) on virion RNA, relicative intermediate RNA, polyribo...

A template-dependent RNA polymerase has been isolated from poliovirus-infected cells by assaying for the ability of the enzyme to copy poly(A) complexed to an oligo(U) primer. The polymerase was solubilized with detergent, and RNA was removed by precipitation with 2 M LiCl. The solubilized polymerase required both poly(A) and oligo(U) for activity and was stimulated by Mg2+ but was inhibited by...

The binding of the purified poliovirus RNA-dependent RNA polymerase to viral and nonviral RNAs was studied using a protein-RNA nitrocellulose filter binding assay. A cellular poly(A)-binding protein was found in viral polymerase preparations, but was easily separated from the polymerase by chromatography on poly(A) Sepharose. Optimal conditions for the binding of purified polymerase (fraction 5...

A crude replication complex has been isolated from poliovirus-infected HeLa cells and used for synthesis of poliovirus replicative intermediate (RI) RNA, replicative form (RF) RNA, and single-stranded (SS) RNA in vitro. All three classes of virus-specific RNA synthesized in vitro are shown to contain poly(A). Poly(A) of RF and of SS RNA [RF-poly(A) and SS-poly(A)] has a chain length (50 to 70 n...

A crude RNA polymerase preparation was made from HeLa cells infected for 3 h with poliovirus. All virus-specific RNA species labeled in vitro (35S RNA, replicative intermediate RNA [RI], and double-stranded RNA [dsRNA]) would bind to poly(U) filters and contained RNase-resistant stretches of poly(A) which could be analyzed by electrophoresis in polyacrylamide gels. After incubation for 45 min w...
