Carboxylate interactions involved in the disassembly of tobacco mosaic tobamovirus.
Structural studies of tobacco mosaic tobamovirus (TMV) have identified two coat protein (CP) intersubunit carboxyl-carboxylate interactions and one CP carboxylate-RNA phosphate interaction whose electrostatic repulsion is believed to drive virion disassembly. In this study, the involvement of each interaction in the disassembly process was examined. Site-directed mutagenesis was used to replace...
متن کاملSimilarities between the secondary structure of satellite tobacco mosaic virus and tobamovirus RNAs.
The secondary structure of satellite tobacco mosaic virus (STMV) RNA was predicted using computer simulations of RNA folding. The analogies of structural elements in the 3' end untranslated regions (3'-UTR) of tobamoviral RNAs were analysed. In addition to the tRNA-like structure and pseudoknot stalk, which are found in all known RNAs of tobamoviruses and STMV, another region of stable consecut...
متن کاملInteractions between tobacco mosaic virus and the tobacco N gene.
The interaction between tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) and tobacco harbouring the N gene is a classical system for studying gene-for-gene interactions in disease resistance. The N gene confers resistance to TMV by mediating defence responses that function to limit viral replication and movement. We isolated the N gene and determined that N belongs to the nucleotide-binding-site-leucine-rich-repeat ...
متن کاملAre 'Pathogenesis-related' Proteins Involved in Acquired Systemic Resistance of Tobacco Plants to Tobacco Mosaic Virus
Four host-coded 'pathogenesis-related' proteins accumulate systemically in locallesion-forming varieties of tobacco after infection with tobacco mosaic virus. It has been suggested that they are involved in the acquired systemic resistance of plants to a second inoculation. Pathogenesis-related protein concentration and amount of resistance (reduction in size and number of lesions formed in the...
متن کاملMonoclonal Antibodies to Identify Tomato Mosaic Tobamovirus (tomv)
Monoclonal antibodies were obtained against Tomato mosaic tobamovirus (ToMV) isolated in Brazil. One antibody (8G7G2) isotyped as IgG2b (κ light chain) showed strong specificity and very low cross reaction with the Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV). It can be used in identification of tomato mosaic virus (ToMV).
