The Small Cysteine-Rich Protein of Potato Mop-Top Virus Exhibits Viroporin Activity. [PDF]
The cysteine‐rich 8K protein of PMTV exhibits a viroporin activity that forms multimers on endomembrane, alters membrane permeability, and conducts potassium and protons. ABSTRACT Potato mop‐top virus (PMTV) is the causal agent of potato tuber spraing disease, which causes significant economic losses to potato production worldwide.

The Beta vulgaris-derived resistance gene Rz2 confers broad-spectrum resistance against soilborne sugar beet-infecting viruses from different families by recognizing triple gene block protein 1. [PDF]
The root‐specific sugar beet nucleotide‐binding and leucine‐rich repeat domain protein Rz2 recognizes TGB1 of the soilborne pathogen beet necrotic yellow vein virus and results in cell death when transiently expressed in Nicotiana benthamiana. Abstract Sugar beet cultivation is dependent on an effective control of beet necrotic yellow vein virus (BNYVV,

Electronmicroscopic Study of Beet Soilborne Pomovirus [PDF]
Beet soilborne pomovirus (BSBV) was observed both in the sap and in tissues from local lesions on Chenopodium quinoa leaves after their embedding into acrylic resin LR White. Immunocapturing with polyclonal antibodies was used to enhance number of particles on grids and immunolabelling by colloidal gold was used for better visibility of virus particles

RabE1a- and SEC10b-mediated exocytosis and AP2β-mediated endocytosis are involved in the intracellular transport of tobamoviruses. [PDF]
Summary To establish systemic infection, plant viruses must replicate, and conduct intra‐ and intercellular movement and long‐distance movement, all of which require the participation of host factors. Tobamoviruses move in the form of movement protein (MP)–viral RNA complex and utilize endocytosis for intracellular movement.

The nanovirus U2 protein suppresses RNA silencing via three conserved cysteine residues. [PDF]
The nanovirus U2 protein was identified as the suppressor of RNA silencing. Three cysteine residues were critical to its nuclear localization, self‐interaction and siRNA‐binding ability, and were essential for its VSR activity. Abstract Nanoviruses have multipartite, circular, single‐stranded DNA genomes and cause huge production losses in legumes and ...

The complete nucleotide sequence (6043 nt) of RNA 1 from Potato mop-top virus (PMTV-Sw), the type member of the genus Pomovirus, was determined. The first (5′-terminal) open reading frame (ORF 1) encodes a predicted protein of 148 kDa. ORF 2 extends through the opal stop codon of ORF 1 producing a predicted readthrough protein of 206 kDa which ...

The functions of triple gene block proteins and coat protein of apple stem pitting virus in viral cell-to-cell movement. [PDF]
TGBp3 of apple stem pitting virus plays a key role in the intracellular traffic along actin networks to the plasma membrane and the plasmodesmal targeting of TGBp2/TGBp1/CP/vRNA‐containing vRNPs by interacting with TGBp2. Abstract Apple stem pitting virus is a species in the genus Foveavirus in the family Betaflexiviridae.

Live-cell fluorescence microscopy was used to investigate the third triple gene block protein (TGB3) of potato mop-top pomovirus and its role in assisted targeting of TGB2 to plasmodesmata (PD). Wild-type and mutant TGB3 proteins were expressed under the control of the 35S promoter or from a virus reporter clone.
