A family of plasmodesmal proteins with receptor-like properties for plant viral movement proteins. [PDF]
Plasmodesmata (PD) are essential but poorly understood structures in plant cell walls that provide symplastic continuity and intercellular communication pathways between adjacent cells and thus play fundamental roles in development and pathogenesis ...

Manipulation of plant host susceptibility: an emerging role for viral movement proteins? [PDF]
Viruses encode Viral Suppressors of RNA silencing (VSRs) to counteract RNA silencing, a major antiviral defense response in plants. Recent studies indicate a role of virus-derived siRNAs in manipulating the expression of specific host genes and that ...

The E3 ligase HRD1 enhances plant antiviral immunity by targeting viral movement proteins
Summary: The ubiquitin-26S proteasome system (UPS) is a conserved protein degradation process involved in plant growth and immunity. However, whether some UPS E3 ligases directly target plant viruses in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) remains less ...

Host and viral RNA-binding proteins involved in membrane targeting, replication and intercellular movement of plant RNA virus genomes [PDF]
Many plant viruses have positive-strand RNA [(+)RNA] as their genome. Therefore, it is not surprising that RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) play important roles during (+)RNA virus infection in host plants.

Double-spanning Plant Viral Movement Protein Integration into the Endoplasmic Reticulum Membrane Is Signal Recognition Particle-dependent, Translocon-mediated, and Concerted* [PDF]
The current model for cell-to-cell movement of plant viruses holds that transport requires virus-encoded movement proteins that intimately associate with endoplasmic reticulum membranes.

Variability, Functions and Interactions of Plant Virus Movement Proteins: What Do We Know So Far?
Of the various proteins encoded by plant viruses, one of the most interesting is the movement protein (MP). MPs are unique to plant viruses and show surprising structural and functional variability while maintaining their core function, which is to ...

The roles of movement and coat proteins in the transport of tobamoviruses between plant cells
Tobamovirus is a large group of positive-sense, single-stranded RNA viruses that cause diseases in a broad range of plant species, including many agronomically important crops. The number of known Tobamovirus species has been on the rise in recent years,
