pubmed:abstractText
The dominance of a mutant isolated from a persistent infection (VSV-Pi) over wild-type vesicular stomatitis virus (wt-VSV) in mixed infections was described previously (J. A. Jordan and J. S. Youngner, 1987, Virology, 158, 407-413). In an attempt to identify the VSV-Pi gene product responsible for transcriptional interference, various combinations of purified VSV-Pi and wt-VSV transcribing core proteins were analyzed in an in vitro transcription assay and compared to homologous wild-type controls. The reconstitution studies revealed that the VSV-Pi RNA dependent-RNA polymerase (L protein) has a dominant activity which works in trans to inhibit wt-VSV transcription.
