Encapsidation of turnip crinkle virus is defined by a specific packaging signal and RNA size

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 1997
A protoplast infection assay has been used to reliably examine the viral RNA encapsidation of turnip crinkle virus (TCV). Analysis of the encapsidation of various mutant viral RNAs revealed that a 186-nucleotide (nt) region at the 3' end of the coat protein (CP) gene, with a bulged hairpin loop of 28 nt as its most essential element, was indispensable ...

RNA virus evasion of nonsense-mediated decay.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2018
Nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) is a host RNA control pathway that removes aberrant transcripts with long 3' untranslated regions (UTRs) due to premature termination codons (PTCs) that arise through mutation or defective splicing.

Genome-wide analysis of the soybean eEF gene family and its involvement in virus resistance

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science
Eukaryotic elongation factors (eEFs) are protein factors that mediate the extension of peptide chain, among which eukaryotic elongation factor 1 alpha (eEF1A) is one of the most abundant protein synthesis factors. Previously we showed that the P3 protein

Effects of turnip crinkle virus infection on the structure and function of mitochondria and expression of stress proteins in turnips

open access: yesPhysiologia Plantarum, 2007
We have investigated the effect of turnip crinkle virus (TCV) infection on mitochondrial structure and function in turnips (Brassica rapa cultivar Just Right). TCV infection resulted in plants with small, mottled leaves with severely crinkled edges, and in a 46% reduction in storage root mass.

From darkness to light: Genetic manipulation of an atypical plant virus unveils key insights into kitavirus biology, highlighting capsid protein and eIF4A engagement to drive viral infection.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens
Kitaviridae, a newly recognized virus family, includes plant viruses infecting crops of great global importance, notably citrus. Despite its significant impact on citrus agricultural production, the molecular mechanisms underlying kitavirus infections ...

Production of active human iduronate-2-sulfatase (IDS) enzyme in Nicotiana benthamiana

open access: yesScientific Reports
Many strategies have been developed to produce high levels of biologically active recombinant proteins in plants for biopharmaceutical purposes. However, the production of an active form of human iduronate-2-sulfatase (hIDS) for the treatment of Hunter ...
