Bacteriophage Qβ utilizes some host cell translation factors during replication. Previously, we constructed a kinetic model that explains replication of long RNA molecules by Qβ replicase. Here, we expanded the previous kinetic model to include the effects of ribosome concentration on RNA replication. The expanded model quantitatively explained single- and double-strand formation kinetics during replication with various ribosome concentrations for two artificial long RNAs. This expanded model and the knowledge obtained in this study provide useful frameworks to understand the precise replication mechanism of Qβ replicase with ribosomes and to design amplifiable RNA genomes in translation-coupling systems.
