Figure Lengend Snippet: FIG. 4. Role of amino acid differences between EV70-Rmk and EV70-Dne viruses in replication in HeLa cells. One-step growth anal- ysis was performed with mutants of EV70-Dne harboring single amino acid substitutions to the EV70-Rmk14 sequence. HeLa cells were infected at an MOI of 5, infections were halted at different times postinfection, and virus titers were determined by plaque assay. (A) Growth analysis of viruses DDDDD (EV70-Dne encoding amino acids K14, M238, L133, P178, and D226), DRRRR (K14K, I238, F133, R178, N226), RDRRR (E14, M238, F133, R178, and N226), RRDRR (E14, I238, L133, R178, and N226), RRRDR (R14, I238, F133, P178, and N226), and RRRRR (EV70-Rmk, E14, I283, F133, R178, and N226). (B) Growth analysis of viruses DDDDD (see above), RDDDD (E14, M238, L133, P178, and D226), DRDDD (K14, I238, L133, P178, and D226), DDRDD (K14, M238, F133, P178, and D226), DDDRD (K14, M238, L133, R178, and D226), and DDDDR (K14, M238, L133, P178, and N226).
Article Snippet: EV70 prototype strain J670/71 was obtained from the American Type Culture Collection (Manassas, VA) and propagated in rhesus monkey kidney LLC-MK2 cells at 37°C.
