摘要
The replication of influenza virus RNA in vitro has been studied by cell fractionation of MDCK-infected cells and characterization of in vitro synthesized RNA. Analysis of the RNA product polarity by liquid hybridization to excess single-stranded DNA probes shows that only the RNP complexes present in the nuclear matrix fraction are able to synthesize negative-polarity RNA. This RNA product has been characterized as authentic vRNA by size analysis, RNase-protection by unlabelled, positive-polarity riboprobes and T1-finterprinting. Priming the in vitro reaction with ApG stimulates preferentially the synthesis of positive-polarity RNA, while ApGpU stimulates both positive and negative-polarity RNA synthesis. © 1990.
