Analysis of the Cellular Stress Response During Ebola Virus Infection by Immunofluorescence

In this chapter, the use of immunofluorescence analysis as a tool to examine stress granule (SG) formation in Ebola virus (EBOV)-infected cells is described. The following protocol focuses on the process of inducing and analyzing the cellular stress response, including treatment of cells with inducers and inhibitors of the SG formation, and also describes EBOV infection, DNA transfection, and the usage of different cell lines.
