Very high frequency of reversion to guanidine resistance in clonal pools of guanidine-dependent type 1 poliovirus.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We have carefully examined the frequency of guanidine-resistant revertants in six different clonal pools of guanidine-dependent mutants of type 1 poliovirus. The mutation frequency was (6.5 +/- 6.3) x 10(-4) (with all amino acid substitutions occurring at position 227). The minimal corrected base substitution frequency per single nucleotide site in the codon for amino acid 227 was (2.1 +/- 1.9) x 10(-4).

Production of guanidine-resistant and -dependent poliovirus mutants from cloned cDNA: mutations in polypeptide 2C are directly responsible for altered guanidine sensitivity.
cDNA fragments representing the region in polypeptide 2C containing mutations in a guanidine-resistant or -dependent mutant were cloned into the wild-type background of an infectious clone. Transfection of COS-1 cells with these plasmids yielded viruses that were either completely resistant to 2.0 mM guanidine hydrochloride or dependent on this concentration of drug for growth.
متن کاملReplication of Poliovirus Rna Induced by Heterologous Virus.
During a previous study of interference among enteroviruses, no evidence could be obtained that the growth of one enterovirus in human cells could accelerate or support the growth of another superinfecting virus.' The present report demonstrates that the ribonucleic acid (RNA) of a drug-dependent poliovirus can be replicated by enzymes induced in HeLa cells through simultaneous infection with a...

Mixed infection of monkey kidney cells with two mutants of the LSc2ab strain of poliovirus, one resistant to guanidine and the other resistant to both dextran sulfate and 2-(alpha-hydroxybenzyl)-benzimidazole (HBB), yielded progeny in which the number of gua(r)dex(r) particles exceeded by a factor of 7 to 10 the expected number of similar particles occurring through spontaneous mutation; recomb...
متن کاملGrowth inhibition of Newcastle disease virus upon superinfection of poliovirus in the presence of guanidine.
When HeLa cells were simultaneously infected with a high multiplicity of poliovirus and a low multiplicity of Newcastle disease virus (NDV), a definite inhibition of NDV growth was observed, while the growth of poliovirus was unaffected. Moreover, under conditions where the multiplication of poliovirus was prevented by guanidine, which is known to inhibit the formation of the ribonucleic acid (...
متن کاملMutations in the 2C region of poliovirus responsible for altered sensitivity to benzimidazole derivatives.
MRL-1237, [1-(4-fluorophenyl)-2-(4-imino-1,4-dihydropyridin-1-yl) methylbenzimidazole hydrochloride], is a potent and selective inhibitor of the replication of enteroviruses. To reveal the target molecule of MRL-1237 in viral replication, we selected spontaneous MRL-1237-resistant poliovirus mutants. Of 15 MRL-1237-resistant mutants obtained, 14 were cross-resistant to guanidine hydrochloride (...
