The N-terminal domain of PMTV TGB1 movement protein is required for nucleolar localization, microtubule association, and long-distance movement.

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2010
The triple-gene-block (TGB)1 protein of Potato mop-top virus (PMTV) was fused to fluorescent proteins and expressed in epidermal cells of Nicotiana benthamiana under the control of the 35S promoter.

The ‘30K’ superfamily of viral movement proteins

Microbiology, 2000
Relationships among the amino acid sequences of viral movement proteins related to the 30 kDa (‘30K’) movement protein of tobacco mosaic virus – the 30K superfamily – were explored. Sequences were grouped into 18 families. A comparison of secondary structure predictions for each family revealed a common predicted core structure flanked by variable N ...

The movement protein gene is involved in the virus-specific requirement of the coat protein in cell-to-cell movement of bromoviruses

Archives of Virology, 2003
Brome mosaic virus (BMV) requires the coat protein (CP) for cell-to-cell movement whereas Cowpea chlorotic mottle virus (CCMV), from the same genus, does not. Chimeric viruses created by exchanging the movement protein (MP) gene between the viruses can move from cell to cell.

Motor Proteins and Movement

2007
The cell skeleton forms a scaffold, along which motor proteins can move. These proteins convert the chemical energy of ATP-hydrolysis into mechanical energy. Movement is unidirectional, either from minus to plus or vice versa. The most important systems are microfilament /myosin and microtubule /kinesin and -dynamin .

Electron Movement Through Proteins and DNA

Free Radical Biology and Medicine, 1997
Nature utilizes the phenomenon of single electron transfer very widely, especially in metallo-proteins. In systems when the metal donor (D) is well separated from the acceptor (A) by polypeptide chains, the transferring electron is presumed to be bonded, in part, by these chains, which may influence the pathway taken.

Intercellular Protein Movement: Deciphering the Language of Development

Annual Review of Cell and Developmental Biology, 2014
Development in multicellular organisms requires the coordinated production of a large number of specialized cell types through sophisticated signaling mechanisms. Non-cell-autonomous signals are one of the key mechanisms by which organisms coordinate development. In plants, intercellular movement of transcription factors and other mobile signals, such

Light‐dependent subcellular movement of photoreceptor proteins

Journal of Neuroscience Research, 1988
AbstractThe intracellular localization of photoreceptor‐specific proteins 33 kd, beta‐transducin, and 48 kd, as determined by immunocytochemistry, is transient and dependent on the lighting environment to which the retina is exposed. Western analysis of the proteins in isolated rod outer segments from mouse retina demonstrates that beta‐transducin ...

Generation and evaluation of movement protein‐specific single‐chain antibodies for delaying symptoms of Tomato spotted wilt virus infection in tobacco

, 2008
This study investigated whether single-chain antibodies (scFvs) specific for a viral movement protein could accumulate in the plant cell cytosol and restrict viral systemic infection in plants.

Phosphorylation of Movement Proteins by the Plasmodesmal-Associated Protein Kinase

2008
Plant viruses encode movement proteins (MPs) which play important roles in spreading their infectious materials throughout host plants. This infection is facilitated by cell-to-cell trafficking of MPs through specialized channels termed plasmodesmata, which involves specific interactions between MPs and host factors.
