Effect of replacing the ER-localization of viperin on its activity against FPPS. The levels of FPPS were quantified in HEK293T cells transfected with FPPS; co-transfected with wild-type viperin; co-transfected with viperin lacking the N-terminal ER-localization sequence (TN50); and co-transfected with viperin in which the ER-targeting sequence the viral protein NS5A replaces endogenous ER-targeting sequence (NS5A-TN50). Neither the truncated enzyme nor the chimeric enzyme is able to reduce the cellular levels of co-expressed FPPS. The data are plotted showing the means and standard deviation of three independent biological replicates. *, p < 0.05.
