Volume 77, no. 22, p. 12022-12032, 2003. The DC-SIGN-transfected and control cells identified in the article as THP-1 human premyelocytes have recently been determined to be Raji B cells (L. Wu, T. D. Martin, M. Carrington, V. N. KewalRamani, Virology 318:17-23, 2004). Similarly, the L-SIGN-transfected and control cells have been identified as Raji B cells (Vineet KewalRamani, personal communication). Our comparisons of the infectivities of Sindbis viruses for authentic Raji B cells and authentic THP-1 cells revealed that only the Raji cells exhibited the combined phenotypes of resistance to infection with TR339 and heparan sulfate-binding Sindbis virus particles and high levels of SB gene expression after electroporation of genomic RNA. Therefore, we attribute these properties to Raji B cells.
