Resistance of HCV IRES translation to the eIF2 inhibitor sodium arsenite is independent of eIF2A and eIF2D. HAP1 cell lines WT, HAP1-eIF2A-, HAP1-eIF2D-, and HAP1-eIF2A-/eIF2D- were transfected with reporter RNAs (HCV-Luc, EMCV-Luc, CrPV-Luc or Cap.βGlobin-Luc) for 1 h and treated with ARS (200 μM) for 2 h. Bars represent the relative luciferase activity with non-treated control (inhibitor concentration = 0) set as 100%. The readings from CHX treatments were subtracted from all as a baseline. Error bars represent the standard error of the mean, n = 3. Statistical significance of the differences between ARS treated samples compared to control was calculated with two-way ANOVA and a Bonferroni post hoc test, and is shown as: p < 0.05, ∗∗p < 0.01, ∗∗∗p < 0.001.
