From: CK2beta gene silencing increases cell susceptibility to influenza A virus infection resulting in accelerated virus entry and higher viral protein content

Figure 1

Timing of CK2β activation. (a) A549 cells were treated with either spermine (300 μM) or TPA (200 ng/ml) and further incubated for the times as indicated. (b) A549 cells were incubated with virus-containing medium (MOI = 5) at 37°C for 1 h, medium was replaced, and cells were further incubated at 37°C for the times as indicated. (c) A549 cells were incubated with virus-containing medium (MOI = 5) at 4°C for 20 min and then at 37°C for the times as indicated. CK2β activation was assessed at the indicated time points by Western blot with polyclonal rabbit anti-phosphorylated CK2β (P-CK2β). Bands in three independent experiments were quantified, and relative CK2β activation (black bars) was calculated and normalized to the loading control (anti-CK2β mAb). White bars represent uninoculated cells.
