Disease relevance of TMGMVgp1

 

High impact information on TMGMVgp1

  • The dRNAs with an intact 126-kDa protein ORF were replicated at moderate levels in protoplasts and in planta when supported by a TMV mutant that expressed the 183-kDa protein but not the 126-kDa protein (183F) [1].
  • Elucidating the role(s) of 126/183-kDa proteins in movement is complicated because these proteins have multiple functions associated with replication and gene expression [5].
  • Systemic symptoms induced on Nicotiana tabacum cv. Xanthi by Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) are modulated by one or both amino-coterminal viral 126- and 183-kDa proteins: proteins involved in virus replication and cell-to-cell movement [6].
  • Here we compare the systemic accumulation and gene silencing characteristics of TMV strains and mutants that express altered 126- and 183-kDa proteins and induce varying intensities of systemic symptoms on N. tabacum [6].
  • Particles containing mutant forms of the viral RNA in which large sections of the 126-kDa and 183-kDa protein ORFs were missing were not disassembled in the 3'-to-5' direction when they were introduced into cells [7].
 

Biological context of TMGMVgp1

  • Both the virus-encoded 126-kDa protein, which has amino-acid sequence motifs typical of methyltransferases and helicases, and the 183-kDa protein, which has additional motifs characteristic of RNA-dependent RNA polymerases, are required for efficient TMV RNA replication [8].
  • A second TMV-derived RNA replicon, without any internally repeated sequences and containing a deletion of the 5' portion of the 30-kDa ORF as well as most of the 126/183-kDa ORF, was created and coinoculated with wild type TMV as helper [9].
  • These changes resulted in 12 amino acid alterations in the open reading frames encoding the 126/183-kDa and 30-kDa movement proteins; two of these changes were determined not to be responsible for the attenuated phenotype [10].
 

Associations of TMGMVgp1 with chemical compounds

  • We show that actinomycin D dramatically stimulates the synthesis of the 30-kDa protein by up to 2 orders of magnitude, whereas the synthesis of the viral 126 kDa, the 183 kDa, and the coat protein is increased only by a factor of 2 [11].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of TMGMVgp1

  • The ELISA assay developed enabled routine detection of viral 126 kDa (as well as 183 kDa) protein in samples of less than 5 mg of systemically infected leaves [12].
