You are studying a cytoskeletal accessory protein, AB2. You believe it is involved in receptor-mediated endocytosis allowing for the entry of a novel virus, SARS-CoV X, into the host cell. To confirm
that AB2 is required for viral entry, you engineer an AB2 protein containing an N-terminal hydrophobic signal sequence and a C-terminal KDEL sequence (AB2-SSKDEL) and express it in human
epithelial airway cells.
You compare cells expressing wild-type (WT) AB2 (lacking the signal sequence and KDEL sequence) with cells expressing AB2-SSKDEL.
You are looking at the entry of a GFP (green) virus into cells.
If AB2 is required for viral entry, via receptor-mediated endocytosis, what results would you expect to see in terms of viral entry?
A. WT AB2 - Green ER
AB2-SSKDEL - No green ER
B. WT AB2-NO green cells
AB2-SSKDEL - Many green cells
OC. WT AB2 - Many green cells
AB2-SSKDEL - NO green cells
D.WT AB2 - Green nuclei
AB2-SSKDEL - No green nuclei
