FIG. 8.

Summary of naïve Huh-7.5 infections with supernatants generated by DNA-RNA cotransfections of subgenomic deletion mutants with structural protein expression vectors at 48 h p.t. Subgenomic deletion mutants used in the cotransfection experiments are at the tops of the columns, and expression vectors are on the left. The qualitative evaluation of packaging efficiency is proportionally expressed with plus signs. Numbers in parentheses are the numbers of foci (two to four cells each) detected by immunostaining. The results are the averages from four independent experiments. n.t., not tested.
