The synthesis of viral proteins and S RNAs in cells infected with 12 temperature-sensitive (ts) mutants of Pichinde virus was characterized. The mutants could be divided into five groups on the basis of the patterns of radiolabeled proteins immunoprecipitated from infected-cell lysates. Markedly reduced nucleoprotein levels and undetectable amounts of glycoprotein precursor and L protein were synthesized at the nonpermissive temperature in cells infected with five of the mutants. Reduced but detectable amounts of the viral proteins were synthesized at the nonpermissive temperature in cells infected with a single mutant. Two mutants were associated with the intracellular accumulation of glycoprotein precursor, which was apparently not transported across the cell membrane in cells incubated at the nonpermissive temperature. The synthesis of viral proteins in cells infected with two mutants was indistinguishable from those produced by wild-type virus. Two additional mutants were associated with markedly reduced amounts of immunoprecipitable proteins in infected cells incubated at both the permissive and nonpermissive temperatures. Analysis of viral RNA with radiolabeled single-stranded cDNA probes representing complementary and genomic-sense sequences corresponding to the 3' region of S RNA revealed two basic patterns of viral RNA synthesis. At the nonpermissive temperature, the synthesis of complementary- and genomic-sense sequences and mRNA of the S RNA segment was markedly reduced in cells infected with representative members of these mutant groups, suggesting the presence of mutations altering transcriptase activity. Viral-complementary- and genomic-sense sequence and RNA synthesis, as well as nucleoprotein mRNA in cells, was detected in reduced amounts for mutants associated with reduced levels of proteins at both temperatures. Interestingly, RNA species larger than the S RNA segment were detected in cells infected with some of the mutants, especially those with putative transcriptase lesions. These molecules suggest a possible oligomeric intermediate in the synthesis of S RNA of Pichinde virus.
