The lack of P58IPK causes increased PKR phosphorylation during influenza virus infection. (A) P58IPK KO and WT MEFs were mock infected or infected with the WSN strain of influenza virus at a MOI of 1, 10, or 100 PFU/cell. Cells were lysed at 8 h p.i., and equivalent concentrations of protein were subjected to SDS-10% PAGE. The levels of phosphorylated PKR, total PKR, and actin were determined by immunoblot analysis. (B) Densitometry analysis. The density of the P-PKR band was normalized to the density of the PKR band, which is represented graphically.
