When mouse L cells are infected by vaccinia virus, a specific kinase inhibitory factor is produced which inhibits the interferon-induced, double-stranded RNA-dependent protein kinase (P. Whitaker-Dowling and J. S. Youngner (1983) Virology 131, 128–136). This inhibitory factor appears early in vaccinia infection (90 min) and its production requires protein synthesis. It inhibits the phosphorylation of the α subunit of protein synthesis initiation factor eIF-2 and it is active in mixed extracts of IFN-treated cells and vaccinia-infected cells. The vaccinia-mediated inhibition of the IFN-induced protein kinase is not due to a specific phosphatase or a specific protease and can be reversed by the addition of excess double-stranded RNA. Evidence is presented which suggests that the specific kinase inhibitory factor interacts in a stoichiometric manner with the double-stranded RNA which is required for the activation of the interferon-induced protein kinase.
