Gel electrophoresis of PCR products. A. PCR products extracted from HSV-1 infected A549 cells either treated with 1.4 mM BTE (columns 2–4) or untreated (columns 5–7). Column 1 contains the DNA ladder, with visible bands identified to the left in base pairs (bp). Columns 2 and 5, 3 and 6, 4 and 7 contain DNA amplified with primers for the HSV-1 gD, GFP and pUL46 genes, respectively. B . Gel electrophoresis of HSV-1 GFP PCR products extracted from HSV-1 infected Vero cells either untreated (column 2) or treated with 0.14 μM, 1.4 μM, or 1.4 mM BTE (columns 3 – 5, respectively). Column 1 contains the DNA ladder, with visible bands identified to the left in base pairs (bp).
