The wild-type (WT) and S282T replicon cells were derived from the clone A cell line. EC90s were determined using the RT-PCR assay. The S96T/N142T, C316Y, M414T, M423T, and P495L replicons were derived from the ET construct transfected into Lunet cells. EC90s were determined using the Firefly luciferase assay and compared to those generated from the wild-type ET-Lunet replicon cells. All values are reported as the means ± standard deviations from at least three independent experiments performed in duplicate.
Fold change in EC90 was calculated by normalizing the EC90 value for the test compound in the mutant replicon cells with that of the wild type.
