Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) is one of the devastating plant viruses in the world that infects more than 200 plant species. Movement protein plays a supportive role in the movement of other plant viruses, and viral coat protein is highly expressed in infected plants and affects replication and movements of TMV. In order to investigate genetic variation in the terminal fragment sequence in Iranian...

carnation etched ring virus (cerv) is a member of the caulimovirus genus of the caulimoviridae. the virus is the second most important virus of carnation around the world and the only dna virus among infecting viruses of carnation. the virus infected plants were collected from greenhouse in chenaran and two fragments of ~1500 bp and ~1000 bp respectively for coat protein and movement protein we...

in order to investigate the presence of carnation etched ring virus (cerv), samples of carnation (dianthus caryophyllus), sweet william (dianthus barbatus) and weed plants showing symptoms from greenhouses of khorasan razavi and northern khorasan provinces were collected in autumn 2009. polyclonal antiserum was used in order to detection of cerv by double- antibody sandwich-enzyme linked immuno...

objective we describe three patients with very severe spinal muscular atrophy (sma) presented with reduced fetal movement in utero, profound hypotonia, severe weakness and respiratory insufficiency at birth. in all infants, electrodiagnostic studies were compatible with a neurogenic pattern. in genetic studies, all cases had homozygous deletions of exons 7 and 8 of survival motor neuron (smn) a...

Tomato ringspot nepovirus (TomRSV) produces a 45 kDa movement protein and a 58 kDa coat protein in infected plants. Accumulation of the movement protein in relation to that of the coat protein was studied in infected protoplasts using a monoclonal antibody against the movement protein and polyclonal antibodies against the coat protein. Unlike most other viral movement proteins, the TomRSV movem...

A pair of degenerate primers, GMPF1 and GMPR1, was designed on the basis of alignment of previously reported Grapevine fanleaf virus (GFLV) movement protein (MP) nucleotide sequences from Iran and other parts of the world. cDNA was synthesized by the use of Oligo d(T)18 from total RNA extraction from each diseased grapevine leaf sample and subjected to polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with the d...
