Cauliflower Mosaic Virus TAV, a Plant Virus Protein That Functions like Ribonuclease H1 and is Cytotoxic to Glioma Cells

A DNA polymerase activity is associated with Cauliflower Mosaic Virus.

A DNA polymerase activity is found within the Cauliflower Mosaic Virus (CaMV) particle. Analysis of the reaction product reveals that the linear form of the virion DNA is preferentially labelled. The molecular weight of the DNA polymerase as determined on an "activity gel" is 76 kDa.

Nuclear targeting of the cauliflower mosaic virus coat protein.

The entry of the viral genomic DNA of cauliflower mosaic virus into the nucleus is a critical step of viral infection. We have shown by transient expression in plant protoplasts that the viral coat protein (CP), which is processed from the product of open reading frame IV, contains an N-terminal nuclear localization signal (NLS). The NLS is exposed on the surface of the virion and is thus avail...

Ribosome shunt is essential for infectivity of cauliflower mosaic virus.

Cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) is a DNA-containing pararetrovirus replicating by means of reverse transcription of a terminally redundant pregenomic 35S RNA that is also used as a polycistronic mRNA. The leader of 35S RNA is long, highly structured, and contains multiple short ORFs (sORFs), which strongly interfere with the ribosome scanning process. Translation of this RNA is initiated by a r...
