Disease relevance of CTVgp11

 

High impact information on CTVgp11

  • Three additional polypeptides, with estimated sizes of 21 kDa, 23 kDa and 27 kDa, were translated from a range of RNA molecules smaller than 3.2 kb [2].
  • The 3' proximal open reading frame (ORF 11) in the citrus tristeza virus (CTV) genome potentially encodes a protein of 209 amino acids with an estimated molecular weight of 23 kDa (p23) [3].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of CTVgp11

  • Using these antisera on a Western blot, a protein of expected size (23 kDa) was detected in tissue extracts from CTV-infected citrus but not from uninfected citrus [3].
