A3G inhibits EV71 5′UTR activity. (A) Bicistronic plasmid construction. (B–D) pcDNA3.1, A3G or A3G C291S plus the pIRIGF negative vector or bicistronic pIRIGF-5′UTR expression plasmid were co-transfected into HEK293T cells, which were harvested at 48 h post-transfection. (B) A3G and A3G C291S expression was detected by immunoblotting analysis. (C) Effects of A3G and A3G C291S on luciferase mRNA levels according to RT-qPCR analysis. GAPDH was used as a control. mRNA levels of luciferase downstream of CMV in the absence of A3G were set as 100%. (D) Effects of A3G and A3G C291S on luciferase activity. Luciferase activity downstream of CMV in the absence of A3G was set as 100%. (C and D) The results are the means with SD from at least three independent experiments. The asterisks indicate statistically significant differences between groups as assessed by Student's t-test (***P < 0.001).
