mRNA activity of a Sindbis virus defective-interfering RNA.
We obtained Sindbis defective-interfering particles by nine and undiluted passages of standard virus on chicken embryo fibroblasts. These particles contain a deleted 20S RNA molecule which has mRNA activity, as shown by translation in cell-free systems in vitro. In infected cells, this mRNA activity appeared to be totally inhibited except at very late times postinfection.
متن کاملReplication of vesicular stomatitis virus defective interfering particle RNA in vitro: transition from synthesis of defective interfering leader RNA to synthesis of full-length defective interfering RNA.
The replication of the RNA of vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) defective interfering (DI) particles was established in a defined cell-free system. The transition from synthesis of only the DI-leader RNA to replication of the full-length DI RNA was effected in the system by newly synthesized VSV proteins and occurred in the absence of VSV helper virus. Both positive- and negative-polarity full-l...
متن کاملDe novo generation of cymbidium ringspot virus defective interfering RNA.
Nicotiana clevelandii plants were inoculated with cymbidium ringspot tombusvirus RNA synthesized in vitro, after which further passages were made by sap inoculation. During the third passage, low Mr RNA species appeared which had the characteristics of deletion mutants of genomic RNA. Sequence analysis of several of these defective interfering RNAs suggested a possible evolution of smaller from...
متن کاملSequence analysis of cDNA's derived from the RNA of Sindbis virions and of defective interfering particles.
Sindbis virus generates defective interfering (DI) particles during serial high-multiplicity passage in cultured cells. These DI particles inhibit the replication of infectious virus and can be an important factor in the establishment and maintenance of persistent infection in BHK cells. In an effort to understand how these DI particles are generated and how they interfere with the replication ...
متن کاملEvolution of virus and defective-interfering RNAs in BHK cells persistently infected with Sindbis virus.
We analyzed a BHK cell line persistently infected with Sindbis virus for 16 months and a virus (Sin-16) cloned from these cells. Sin-16 virus was resistant to the defective interfering particles present in the original infection. We found that (i) cells infected with Sin-16 were impaired in the processing of a viral precursor glycoprotein, (ii) high-multiplicity passaging of Sin-16 gave rise to...
