Cell-type-specific growth restriction of vesicular stomatitis virus polR mutants is linked to defective viral polymerase function.
Vesicular stomatitis virus polR mutants synthesize defective RNA replication products in vitro and display growth restriction in some cultured cells (J. L. Chuang, R. L. Jackson, and J. Perrault, Virology 229:57-67, 1997). We show here that a recombinant virus carrying the polR N protein mutation (R179H) yielded approximately 100-fold- and approximately 40-fold-lower amounts of infectious virus...
متن کاملOverproduction of double-stranded RNA in vesicular stomatitis virus-infected cells activates a constitutive cell-type-specific antiviral response.
In a companion paper (D. Ostertag, T. M. Hoblitzell-Ostertag, and J. Perrault, J. Virol. 81:492-502, 2007), we provided indirect evidence that cell-type-specific growth restriction of the vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) polR mutants may be due to enhanced production of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA). We show here that polR growth in mouse L-929 cells was rescued by vaccinia virus coinfection and ...
متن کاملTrojan horse lymphocytes: a vesicular stomatitis virus-specific T-cell clone lyses target cells by carrying virus.
We have isolated a vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV)-specific CD4+ CD8- murine T-cell clone. This clone proliferates only in response to VSV and lyses infected tumor cells bearing class II major histocompatibility antigens in short-term chromium release assays. In addition, the cell has VSV antigens on its surface and is capable of killing uninfected tumor cells without major histocompatibility ...
متن کاملGenome rearrangement affects RNA virus adaptability on prostate cancer cells
Gene order is often highly conserved within taxonomic groups, such that organisms with rearranged genomes tend to be less fit than wild type gene orders, and suggesting natural selection favors genome architectures that maximize fitness. But it is unclear whether rearranged genomes hinder adaptability: capacity to evolutionarily improve in a new environment. Negative-sense non-segmented RNA vir...
متن کاملGeneration of Helper Plasmids Encoding Mutant Adeno-associated Virus Type 2 Capsid Proteins with Increased Resistance against Proteasomal Degradation
Objective(s): Adeno-associated virus type 2 (AAV2) vectors are widely used for both experimental and clinical gene therapy. A recent research has shown that the performance of these vectors can be greatly improved by substitution of specific surface-exposed tyrosine residues with phenylalanines. In this study, a fast and simple method is presented to generate AAV2 vector helper plasmids encod...
