Host cell gene expression late during cytomegalovirus infection

ABSTRACT: Human fibroblast monolayers plated at a density of 3 x 104 cells/cm2 in 850 cm2 roller bottles were infected at confluency (day 5 post-seeding) with purified virions of human cytomegalovirus (CMV) strain AD169varATCC (AD) or the AD169 US27/US28 deletion mutant virus RV101 (RV) at a multiplicity of infection of 10. After virus adsorption for 1h at 37C with 5% CO2, the inoculum was removed and the cells were washed twice with culture medium prior to the addition of fresh medium. At 50, 72 and 98 hpi, infected monolayers were harvested, snap-frozen and stored at -80:C until the time course was completed. Uninfected confluent HF cultures were used as reference. mRNA was extracted using the FastTrack. 2.0 mRNA Isolation Kit (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA). Only RNA preparations reaching OD260/280 ra
