A viral protein activates the MAPK pathway to promote viral infection by downregulating callose deposition in plants [PDF]
Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascades are evolutionarily conserved in both plants and animals and play critical roles in activating innate immunity to defend against various pathogens.

Tomato antiviral ubiquitin-proteasome system recognizes viral 59 kDa protein to confer tomato chlorosis virus resistance [PDF]
Viral diseases critically impact crop yields, necessitating insights into plant-pathogen recognition and resistance. In tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), tomato chlorosis virus (ToCV) employs 59 kDa protein (p59) to facilitate movement and degrade the host ...

Tomato Chlorotic Virus Minor Coat Protein Interferes With the Host Proteasome Function by Competitive Disruption of SlPAD1-SlPA4 Interaction to Enhance Viral Infection. [PDF]
CPm interacts with tomato SlPAD1 to block 26S proteasome function. Under physiological conditions, tomato SlPAD1 binds SlPA4 to form the 26S proteasome, maintaining protein homeostasis. During ToCV infection, viral CPm competitively interacts with SlPAD1, impairing proteasome function and inhibiting degradation of ubiquitinated proteins, thereby ...

GATA8-Mediated Antiviral Defence Is Countered by Tomato Chlorosis Virus-Encoded Pathogenicity Protein p27. [PDF]
GATA8 enhances the antiviral defence of tomato plants against tomato chlorosis virus by binding to the promoter of SnRK2, thereby regulating its expression. However, this process is counteracted by the viral p27 protein. ABSTRACT Tomato chlorosis virus (ToCV), a phloem‐restricted RNA virus within the genus Crinivirus of the family Closteroviridae ...
