چکیده

A full-length cDNA clone of alfalfa mosaic virus (AMV) RNA3 was prepared and sequenced. The 2,037 base sequence contains two open reading frames of 903 and 666 nucleotides that code for a 32,400 dalton protein (32.4K protein) and the 24,380 dalton coat protein, respectively. A 5'-noncoding sequence of 240 bases preceeding the 32.4K protein contains homologous regions that may have a function in its translation. The intercistronic junction is 49 bases long, the last 36 bases representing the 5'-end of the subgenomic RNA4. The remaining 179 bases comprise the 3'-terminal noncoding sequence.

Plasmid DNA Containing a Copy of RNA3 Can Substitute for RNA3 in Alfalfa Mosaic Virus RNA Inocula

The infectivity of a DNA copy of RNA3 from strain S of alfalfa mosaic virus inserted in a pT7-1 plasmid vector (clone 3pT7-1) was tested as circular DNA by coinoculation with RNAs 1, 2 and 4 from strain B (mix Io) on young tobacco leaves. Virus multiplication was monitored by serological detection of the coat protein. Progeny RNA3 derived from circular plasmid DNA 3pT7-1 was of the same length ...

Analysis of the Complete Genome Sequence of Cucumber mosaic virus Strain K

The complete genome sequence of Cucumber mosaic virus strain K was determined by deep RNA sequencing. The tripartite genome consists of a 3,382-nucleotide (nt) RNA1, a 3,050-nt RNA2, and a 2,218-nt RNA3 segment. Phylogenetic analysis placed RNA1 and RNA2 in subgroup IB. However, RNA3 grouped with subgroup IA isolates, indicating a likely recombination event.

The nucleotide sequence of RNA3 and RNA4 of olive latent virus 2.

Olive latent virus 2 (OLV2), a virus with particle shapes resembling those of alfalfa mosaic alfamovirus (AMV), has four major RNA species, two of which (RNA3 and RNA4) were completely sequenced. RNA3 was a bicistronic molecule containing two clear-cut ORFs, one of which (ORF1) coded for a 36.5 kDa polypeptide with conserved motifs of the '30K superfamily' movement proteins and the other (ORF2)...

Expression of chimeric HCV peptide in transgenic tobacco plants infected with recombinant alfalfa mosaic virus for development of a plant-derived vaccine against HCV

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is the major etiologic agent of blood transfusion–associated and sporadic nonA non-B hepatitis affecting more than 180 million worldwide. Vaccine development for HCV has been difficult and there is no vaccine or effective therapy against this virus. In this paper, we describe the development of an experimental plant-derived subunit vaccine against HCV. Our subunit vaccin...

In vivo analysis of the TSWV cap-snatching mechanism: single base complementarity and primer length requirements.

Requirements for capped leader sequences for use during transcription initiation by tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) were tested using mutant alfalfa mosaic virus (AMV) RNAs as specific cap donors in transgenic Nicotiana tabacum plants expressing the AMV replicase proteins. Using a series of AMV RNA3 mutants modified in either the 5'-non-translated region or in the subgenomic RNA4 leader, seque...
