TABLE 1.
Transcriptional activities of RSV P proteinsa
P protein + treatment | Transcriptional activity (nmol of UMP incorporated/mg of N-RNA/h) |
---|---|
Wild type + CK2 | 5.2 |
Wild type (CK2) + PPλ | 0.3 |
Ser232Asp | 2.1 |
Ser232Asp + CK2 | 2.2 |
Ser232Asp + PPλ | 1.9 |
Wild type + CK1 | 0.2 |
Ser215Ala | 5.0 |
RSV transcription reaction mixtures (10 μl) were reconstituted by using 200 ng of the indicated (wild-type or mutant) recombinant HRSV P proteins as described in Materials and Methods. Where indicated, the P protein was prephosphorylated by CK2 (of HEp-2 extract) or by purified CK1. PPλ indicates the presence of 40 ng of PPλ per 20 μl of the transcription reaction mixture (as in Fig. 4A).
