PEG treatment restores infectivity of RCMV lacking R116.

# plaques Fold increase with PEGa
No treatment PEG
Control siRNA 725 +/− 199 2417 +/− 736 3.3
R116–308 158 +/− 143b 1950 +/− 421c 12.3
R116–520 208 +/− 174d 2183 +/− 640e 10.5
a

=PEG treatment increases infectivity for all siRNA (p<0.005)

b,d

=siRNA to R116 decreases infectivity vs. control (p<0.0003, p<0.0008 respectively)

c,e

=PEG restores infectivity of RCMV lacking R116 to control levels (p=0.21, p=0.57 respectively)
