The poliovirus RNA-dependent RNA polymerase required an oligouridylate primer or a HeLa cell protein (host factor) to initiate RNA synthesis on poliovirion RNA in vitro. The polymerase synthesized template-sized product RNA in the oligouridylate-primed reaction. In the host factor-dependent reaction, the largest product RNA synthesized by the polymerase was twice the size of the template RNA. About half of the product RNA recovered from this reaction was shown to exist in the form of a snapback sequence. Time-course reactions and pulse-chase experiments showed that the product RNA was only slightly larger than the template RNA at early reaction times and that with time it increased in size to form the dimer-sized product RNA. Inhibition of the elongation reaction by adding only [alpha-32P]UTP and ATP resulted in the formation of template-sized product RNA. The dimer-sized product RNA was unaffected by phenol extraction or proteinase K treatment but was converted to template-sized molecules by S1 nuclease. Dimer-sized poliovirus RNA that was sensitive to S1 nuclease was also isolated from poliovirus-infected cells. The results from this study indicate that the labeled negative-strand product RNA synthesized in vitro was covalently linked to the positive-strand template RNA. Thus, in vitro, the primer-dependent poliovirus RNA polymerase may initiate RNA synthesis in the presence of the host factor by using the 3' end of the template RNA as a primer.
