TLDR
Viral protein synthesis is found to be at a maximum before virus-induced host cell alterations can yet be detected, and viral RNA synthesis, but not protein synthesis, is structurally tightly connected with the onset and increase of cytopathology.

Identification of the Hepatitis C Virus RNA Replication Complex in Huh-7 Cells Harboring Subgenomic Replicons

TL;DR: Metabolic labeling with 5-bromouridine 5′-triphosphate in the presence of actinomycin D revealed that the membranous web is the site of viral RNA synthesis and therefore represents the replication complex of HCV.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association of polioviral proteins of the P2 genomic region with the viral replication complex and virus-induced membrane synthesis as visualized by electron microscopic immunocytochemistry and autoradiography.

TL;DR: Using high resolution electron microscopic autoradiography and immunocytochemistry with monoclonal antibodies against poliovirus proteins of the P2 genomic region, the location of these proteins in respect to the virus-induced vesicle formation and the viral RNA synthesis was followed during the viral replication cycle.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structural and functional characterization of the poliovirus replication complex.

TL;DR: It was found that the progeny RNA strands are set free soon after completion from the replication complex at the sites where the compact membranes within the replicationcomplex are in close contact with the surrounding virus-induced vesicles.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structural organization of poliovirus RNA replication is mediated by viral proteins of the P2 genomic region.

TL;DR: The findings allow the conclusion that the protein 2C or 2C-containing precursor(s) is responsible for the attachment of the viral RNA to the vesicular membrane and for the spatial organization of the replication complex necessary for its proper functioning in viral transcription.

Cleavage of Structural Proteins during the Assembly of the Head of Bacteriophage T4

TL;DR: Using an improved method of gel electrophoresis, many hitherto unknown proteins have been found in bacteriophage T4 and some of these have been identified with specific gene products.

A Film Detection Method for Tritium‐Labelled Proteins and Nucleic Acids in Polyacrylamide Gels

TL;DR: A simple method for detecting 3H in polyacrylamide gels by scintillation autography (fluorography) using X-ray film, which is ten times more sensitive than conventional autoradiography of isotopes with higher emission energies.

Polypeptide cleavages in the formation of poliovirus proteins

TL;DR: It is found that cleavages play an important role in the formation of most if not all poliovirus-specific proteins.
