摘要
Ouabain, a specific inhibitor of the membrane-associated Na+/K+-ATPase (sodium pump), has a differential effect on protein synthesis in Sindbis virus-infected and uninfected chick embryo fibroblast (CEF) cultures. At low concentrations, cell-specified protein synthesis is inhibited while Sindbis virus-directed protein synthesis is stimulated. At higher ouabain concentrations, which inhibit protein synthesis in uninfected CEF cells 95% or more, viral protein synthesis continues. Ouabain treatment of uninfected CEF cells raises the intracellular Na+ concentration and lowers the intracellular K+ concentration. The effect of Sindbis virus infection is similar. The changes in intracellular Na+ and K+ concentrations appear responsible for the selective inhibition of the translation of host cell mRNAs in Sindbis virus-infected or ouabain-treated CEF. © 1979.
