FIG. 3.
MESV and MPSV expression levels are approximately 50-fold higher in fibroblasts than in ES cells. RNA was extracted from both infected and noninfected CCE ES cells and from infected GP-envAm12 fibroblasts (GPA). Total RNA (15 μg) was size separated by gel electrophoresis, transferred to a nylon membrane, and hybridized with either a Neor or a β-actin probe. Cells were infected with either MESVneo or MPEVneo, as indicated, with a multiplicity of infection of 2. Parallel cultures were either selected with G418 (+G) or not (−G).
