Methylated reovirus mRNA was synthesized in vitro in the presence of S-adenosyl-L-[methyl-3H]-methionine. Viral genome double-stranded RNA that was uniformly labeled with 32-P was isolated from purified virions. The RNAs were mixed and their 5'-terminal structures compared by electrophoretic and chromatographic analyses after enzymatic digestion. Both the mRNA and the corresponding strand in the genome RNA contain m-7G(5')ppp(5')G-m-pCp, indicating that infected cells synthesize viral RNA with blocked, methylated 5' termini.
在S-腺苷-L-[甲基-³H]-甲硫氨酸存在的情况下,体外合成了甲基化呼肠孤病毒mRNA。从纯化的病毒粒子中分离出用³²P均匀标记的病毒基因组双链RNA。将这些RNA混合,并在酶消化后通过电泳和色谱分析比较它们的5'-末端结构。mRNA和基因组RNA中的相应链均含有m⁷G(5')ppp(5')G-m-pCp,表明受感染的细胞合成具有封闭的、甲基化5'末端的病毒RNA。
