Supplemental Information Cloning, expression, and purification of GST-FMDV 2C GST-2C constructs were produced in pgex2t (GE Healthcare) which adds a thrombin cleavable N-terminal GST. FMDV 2C cdna for insertion into pgex-2t was amplified using the primers 2C- GSTFd and 2C GSTRev (Table S1). PCR products for insertion into pgex-2t had a 5 BamHI site and an engineered stop codon and EcoRI site at the 3 end. PCR products and pgex2t were digested with BamHI and EcoRI (New England BioLabs) and ligated with T4 ligase (Roche). Cells for expression of GST-2C were grown to an OD 600 of 1 at 37 C and transferred to ice for 5 mins before addition of IPTG (0.1 mm). GST-2C was expressed for 4 hours at 20 C and cells were pelleted a stored at -80 C. GST tagged protein was affinity purified on a GSTrap column (GE Healthcare) using an Äkta FPLC system. GST-2C was further purified by gel filtration on a Superdex S200 10/30 column using an Äkta FPLC system (GE Healthcare) in 50 mm HEPES ph (7.1), 400 mm NaCl, and 1 mm BME. Protein was concentrated to 1 mg/ml and stored at -80 C. Figure S1: Purification of GST-FMDV 2C GST-FMDV 2C was produced in BL21 (DE3) plyss E. coli. a Samples of E. coli proteins pre- and postinduction of GST-FMDV 2C were analysed by 12 % SDS-PAGE. b Following lysis, the soluble protein Supp. Info - Sweeney et al. 1

2 was loaded onto a 1 ml GStrap column (GE Healthcare). After extensive washing in buffer containing 50 mm HEPES, ph 7.1, 400 mm NaCl, 1 mm β-mercaptoethanol, 0.1% Triton X-100 and 20 µg/ml of phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride, the protein was eluted in wash buffer containing 20 mm glutathione over 10 column volumes. The elution fractions were analysed as shown in the accompanying 12 % SDS- PAGE gel. The lane numbers in the gel correspond to the fraction numbers in the UV absorbance profile. c The affinity-purified protein was concentrated and loaded onto a Superdex S200 size-exclusion column. The elution fractions were analysed as shown in the accompanying 12 % SDS-PAGE gel. The positions of molecular weight standards are indicated. β-amylase is 200 kda, alcohol dehydrogenase is 150 kda, bovine serum albumin is 66 kda, and carbonic anhydrase is 29 kda. d 10 units of thrombin was added per mg of GST-FMDV 2C and incubated for 4 hours at 22 C. Pre (-Thr) and post (+Thr) cleavage samples were analysed by 12 % SDS-PAGE. Figure S2: Effect of cations, temperature, ph and GuaHCl on FMDV 2C ATPase activity The ATPase activity of FMDV 2C(34-318) was measured in 100 µl reactions containing 4 µg protein (1.25 µm), 1 mm ATP and 2 mm MgCl 2, unless otherwise stated. a ATP hydrolysis was measured in the presence of varying concentrations of Mg 2+ (closed circles) or Mn 2+ (open circles). b ATPase activity was measured at the temperatures indicated. c ATPase activity was measured in the presence of 50 mm HEPES buffer prepared over the ph range 6.5 to 8.5. d The ATPase activities of wild type 2C(34-318) and 2C(34-318) M159L were measured in the presence of different concentrations of GuaHCl. Data presented in Fig. 2f is shown here as a percentage of the drug free activity for each protein. Error bars are ± SEM for three experiments.

UV cross-linking of [α- 32 P]-ATP to FMDV 2C(34-318) in the presence of varying concentrations of a GuaHCl or b NaCl. After cross-linking the protein sample was run on a 12 % SDS-PAGE gel.

3 gels cross-linked ATP was detected by exposure to a phosphor screen. The intensity of the bands, plotted as a percentage of the no added GuaHCl or NaCl band (solid lines) was measured by densitometry. The effects of GuaHCl and NaCl on the ATPase activity of 2C(34-318) are shown for comparison (dotted lines). Figure S4: FMDV 2C(34-318) binds most tightly to ssrnas that are at least10 bases long. The binding of 2C(34-318) to 32 P end labelled RNA was measured by EMSA. Protein/RNA complexes were separated by native 10% PAGE before being detected by exposure to a phosphor screen. The position of the free unbound probe (Free) and protein/rna complex (Com) is indicated. Varying concentrations of 2C(34-318) (2C) were added to a radiolabelled 7 base long RNA (5 -AUAAUUU) or b radiolabelled 12 base long RNA (5 -CGCGAAUAAUUU). Supp. Info - Sweeney et al. 3
