Sendai virus-induced transcriptase from infected cells: polypeptides in the transcriptive complex.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A Sendai virus-induced transcriptase-template complex was isolated from the cytoplasm of infected cells by combined sedimentation and isopycnic centrifugation. This transcriptive complex banded at 1.27 g/cm(3) in D(2)O-sucrose gradients. It contained two polypeptides, the viral nucleocapsid structure unit (molecular weight, 60,000) and the largest virion polypeptide (molecular weight, 75,000). The buoyant density, chemical composition, and electron microscopic appearance of the transcriptive complex indicate a structure like that of viral nucleocapsids.

Ribonucleic acid polymerase induced in cells infected with Sendai virus.
A ribonucleic acid (RNA)-dependent RNA polymerase was induced in chick embryo fibroblast cells after infection with Sendai virus (parainfluenza 1 virus). The enzyme was associated with the microsomal fraction of infected cells and reached maximum detectable activity at 18 hr after virus infection. The activity of the enzyme in vitro was dependent on the presence of added magnesium ions and all ...
متن کاملCharacterization of Sendai virus persistently infected L929 cells and Sendai virus pi strain: recombinant Sendai viruses having Mpi protein shows lower cytotoxicity and are incapable of establishing persistent infection.
It is commonly accepted that the temperature-sensitive phenotype of Sendai virus (SeV) persistently infected cells is caused by the M and/or HN proteins. Expression level of the L, M, HN, and V proteins is extremely low in L929 cells persistently infected with SeVpi (L929/SeVpi cells) incubated at 38 degrees C. The HN protein quickly disappears in L929/SeVpi cells following a temperature shift ...
متن کاملMumps virus replication in chick embryo lung cells: properties of ribonucleic acids in virions and infected cells.
Ribonucleic acid (RNA) species in mumps virions and in infected cells were compared. The predominant RNA species in virions labeled with (3)H-uridine sedimented at 50S; RNA species sedimenting at 28, 18, and about 10S were also present. The virion-associated RNA species sedimenting slower than 50S contained some nucleotide sequences similar to 50S virion RNA. Although mumps virus replication wa...
متن کاملTemperature-sensitive HVJ (sendai virus) with altered P polypeptide derived from persistently infected cell lines.
HVJ isolated from culture fluids of G2, THEL and GM2 cells persistently infected with HVJ (G2-HVJ, THEL-HVJ and GM2-HVJ) were characterized in comparison with wild-type HVJ (HVJo). Viral structural proteins were analysed by 10% SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and its was found that only the P polypeptides of all the HVJ clones isolated from G2-HVJ cells had a smaller size mol. wt. of 77 ...
متن کاملPGJ2, a new antiviral prostaglandin: inhibition of Sendai virus replication and alteration of virus protein synthesis.
Prostaglandin J2 (PGJ2) was found to suppress dramatically Sendai virus replication in African green monkey kidney cells in culture. PGJ2 was not toxic at the active dose to uninfected cells and did not significantly inhibit macromolecular synthesis, but it specifically stimulated the synthesis of a polypeptide of 74,000 mol. wt. In Sendai virus-infected cells, PGJ2 partially inhibited virus pr...
