PTPN1 is a vital proviral factor in PRRSV infection via its phosphatase activity. A Effect of chloPTPN1 overexpression on PRRSV replication in Marc-145 cells. B IFA images of Marc-145 cells (PRRSV-infected and choPTPN1-transfected) at 36 hpi. The viral N protein is green, and the nuclei are blue. Scale bars, 500 μm. C Virus titration of samples from Marc-145 cells by TCID50 calculation. D Western blot analysis of the effect of PTPN1 knockdown on PRRSV replication in Marc-145 cells. E and F RT‒qPCR analysis of the effect of PTPN1 knockdown on PRRSV replication in Marc-145 cells. G and H Effects of chloPTPN1 phosphatase activity on PRRSV replication determined by RT‒qPCR (G) and Western blotting (H) in Marc-145 cells. The following plasmids were used: chloPTPN1-HA, chloPTPN1-HA-D181A (“substrate-trapping” mutant, D for short), chloPTPN1-HA-C215S (enzyme-inactive mutant, C for short), and chloPTPN1-HA-D181A/C215S (D/C for short). The results are from one of three independent experiments. The data are presented as the means ± SDs. The asterisks in the figures indicate significant differences (*, P < 0.05; **, P < 0.01; ***, P < 0.001; ****, P < 0.0001; ns, not significant).
