We demonstrated that unmodified and modified (phosphorothioate) antisense oligonucleotides inhibit CAT (chloramphenicol acetyltransferase) protein expression in the clone 76 cell line. This cell line expresses the influenza virus RNA polymerase and nucleoprotein (NP) genes in response to dexamethasone. Antisense oligonucleotides with four target sites (PB1, PB2, PA, and NP) were synthesized and tested for the their inhibitory effects by a CAT-ELISA assay. Antisense phosphorothioate oligonucleotides (S-ODNs) complementary to the sites of the PB2-AUG and PA-AUG initiation codons showed a high inhibitory effect. On the other hand, the inhibitory effect of the S-ODNs targeted to PB1 was considerably decreased in comparison with the other three target sites.

D009698 Nucleoproteins Proteins conjugated with nucleic acids. Nucleoprotein
D009980 Influenza A virus The type species of the genus ALPHAINFLUENZAVIRUS that causes influenza and other diseases in humans and animals. Antigenic variation occurs frequently between strains, allowing classification into subtypes and variants. Transmission is usually by aerosol (human and most non-aquatic hosts) or waterborne (ducks). Infected birds shed the virus in their saliva, nasal secretions, and feces.

D012321 DNA-Directed RNA Polymerases Enzymes that catalyze DNA template-directed extension of the 3'-end of an RNA strand one nucleotide at a time. They can initiate a chain de novo. In eukaryotes, three forms of the enzyme have been distinguished on the basis of sensitivity to alpha-amanitin, and the type of RNA synthesized. (From Enzyme Nomenclature, 1992).

D015500 Chloramphenicol O-Acetyltransferase An enzyme that catalyzes the acetylation of chloramphenicol to yield chloramphenicol 3-acetate. Since chloramphenicol 3-acetate does not bind to bacterial ribosomes and is not an inhibitor of peptidyltransferase, the enzyme is responsible for the naturally occurring chloramphenicol resistance in bacteria. The enzyme, for which variants are known, is found in both gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. EC 2.3.1.28.
