Co-stimulatory effects of VP1 and IRFs on activation of the Atlantic salmon IFNa1 promoter. TO-cells were co-transfected with a plasmid containing the minimal IFNa1 promoter fused to a luciferase gene along with an expression construct for Renilla luciferase as a transfection control. In addition, expression constructs for IRF1 or IRF3, VP1, and VP1 in combination with IRF1 or IRF3 were included. Results are presented as mean relative light units (RLU) ± SD (N = 3). (A) Effects of IRF1, VP1, a combination of VP1 and IRF1 and vector control. IRF1 + VP1 is significantly different from VP1 and IRF1 (p < 0.05). (B) Effects of IRF3, VP1, a combination of VP1 and IRF3 and a vector control. IRF3 + VP1 is significantly different from VP1 and IRF3 (p < 0.05). All groups are different from vector control in A and B (p < 0.05).
