RESUMO
The replication of Moloney murine leukemia virus (MMuLV) in chronically infected mouse cells arrested at the G0/G1 phase of the cell cycle by different procedures was investigated. MMuLV production was inhibited in glutamine- and isoleucine (Gln-Ile)-deprived G0/G1 cells. In contrast, butyric acid treatment, which efficiently arrested the cells at the G0/G1 phase of the cell cycle, did not inhibit MMuLV production. Furthermore, the inhibition of MMuLV production caused by either Gln-Ile deprivation or by interferon (IFN) treatment was overcome by butyric acid treatment. Thus, the replication of MMuLV could be dissociated from cell proliferation. The inhibition of MMuLV production in Gln-Ile-deprived cell cultures was compared to the inhibitory effect of IFN, which is known to affect budding and release of the virus. Rates of MMuLV protein synthesis were not affected in both the IFN-treated and Gln-Ile-deprived cells. However, processing of the viral polyprotein Pre65gag into p30 was blocked in the Gln-Ile-deprived cells. Furthermore, whereas in IFN-treated cells, MMuLV accumulated on the cell surface and could be released upon treatment with trypsin, in Gln-Ile-deprived cells, no virions were released by such treatment. These results indicate that in cells arrested by Gln-Ile deprivation, MMuLV is inhibited at a posttranslation step. This step appears to precede the anti-MMuLV block induced by IFN.
