Spontaneous Mutation in the Movement Protein of Citrus Leprosis Virus C2, in a Heterologous Virus Infection Context, Increases Cell-to-Cell Transport and Generates Fitness Advantage [PDF]
Previous results using a movement defective alfalfa mosaic virus (AMV) vector revealed that citrus leprosis virus C (CiLV-C) movement protein (MP) generates a more efficient local movement, but not more systemic transport, than citrus leprosis virus C2 ...

Movement Protein Mediates Systemic Necrosis in Tomato Plants with Infection of Tomato Mosaic Virus [PDF]
The necrogenic strain N5 of tomato mosaic virus (ToMV-N5) causes systemic necrosis in tomato cultivar Hezuo903. In this work, we mapped the viral determinant responsible for the induction of systemic necrosis.

The Melon Sterol Transporter Niemann-Pick C1 Protein Is a New Interactor of Cucumber mosaic virus Movement Protein [PDF]
Plant viruses need to use many host factors to establish infection. During the viral cycle, intracellular transport is fundamental to reach the plasmodesmata to enable cell-to-cell transport. Cucumovirus CMV (cucumber mosaic virus, CMV) can infect plants

The 28 Ser Amino Acid of Cucumber Mosaic Virus Movement Protein Has a Role in Symptom Formation and Plasmodesmata Localization [PDF]
Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV, Cucumovirus, Bromoviridae) is an economically significant virus infecting important horticultural and field crops. Current knowledge regarding the specific functions of its movement protein (MP) is still incomplete.

Defense Responses Induced by Viral Movement Protein and Its Nuclear Localization Modulate Virus Cell-to-Cell Transport [PDF]
Movement proteins (MPs) encoded by plant viruses are essential for cell-to-cell transport of viral genomes through plasmodesmata. The genome of hibiscus green spot virus contains a module of two MP genes termed ‘binary movement block’ (BMB), encoding the

Localization of Barley yellow dwarf virus Movement Protein Modulating Programmed Cell Death in Nicotiana benthamiana [PDF]
Barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV) belongs to Luteovirus and is limited only at phloem related tissues. An open reading frame (ORF) 4 of BYDV codes for the movement protein (MP) of BYDV gating plasmodesmata (PD) to facilitate virus movement.

Begomoviral Movement Protein Effects in Human and Plant Cells: Towards New Potential Interaction Partners [PDF]
Geminiviral single-stranded circular DNA genomes replicate in nuclei so that the progeny DNA has to cross both the nuclear envelope and the plasmodesmata for systemic spread within plant tissues.

Plasmodesmal Targeting and Accumulation of TMV Movement Protein [PDF]
The interaction between tobacco mosaic virus and its host plant cells has been intensively studied as a model for macromolecular trafficking. The observation that GFP-labelled TMV movement protein localises to microtubules led to the suggestion that microtubules are required for the cell to cell movement of the virus.
