A mycovirus-encoded homologue of plant viral movement proteins is not functional in movement complementation assays in plants [PDF]
Valsa mali negative strand RNA virus 1 (VmNSRV1), a fungal virus infecting Valsa mali and belonging to the Phenuiviridae family, was recently shown to be capable of naturally infecting plants.

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 ...

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.

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 ...

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 ...

Probing plant cell structure and function with viral movement proteins
Virus-encoded movement proteins are the principal strategy by which all plant viruses counter the primary physical defense of the plant to infection - the cell wall - to produce systemic infection and disease. Our understanding of how these proteins act at the molecular and cellular level has increased enormously in the past decade and ushered in an ...

Similarities in intracellular transport of plant viral movement proteins BMB2 and TGB3
The cell-to-cell transport of many plant viruses through plasmodesmata requires viral movement proteins (MPs) encoded by a 'triple gene block' (TGB) and termed TGB1, TGB2 and TGB3. TGB3 is a small integral membrane protein that contains subcellular targeting signals and directs both TGB2 and the helicase domain-containing TGB1 protein to plasmodesmata ...

Viral Movement Proteins as Probes for Intracellular and Intercellular Trafficking in Plants [PDF]
The ability of viruses to cross the cellulosic cell wall to propagate infection throughout a plant has been a long-standing puzzle in plant cell biology and virology. Contemplated from the perspective of the topology of the plant cell and the plant as an integrated structure of the ...

The proteins encoded by open reading frame 3 (ORF3) of the umbraviruses pea enation mosaic virus-2 and tobacco mottle virus, like that of groundnut rosette virus, mediated the movement of viral RNA through the phloem of infected Nicotiana benthamiana or N.

Insertion and Topology of a Plant Viral Movement Protein in the Endoplasmic Reticulum Membrane [PDF]
Virus-encoded movement proteins (MPs) mediate cell-to-cell spread of viral RNA through plant membranous intercellular connections, the plasmodesmata. The molecular pathway by which MPs interact with viral genomes and target plasmodesmata channels is largely unknown.
