Analysis of the VPg-proteinase (NIa) encoded by tobacco etch potyvirus: effects of mutations on subcellular transport, proteolytic processing, and genome amplification.

A mutational analysis was conducted to investigate the functions of the tobacco etch potyvirus VPg-proteinase (NIa) protein in vivo. The NIa N-terminal domain contains the VPg attachment site, whereas the C-terminal domain contains a picornavirus 3C-like proteinase. Cleavage at an internal site separating the two domains occurs in a subset of NIa molecules. The majority of NIa molecules in TEV-...

Complementation of tobacco etch potyvirus mutants by active RNA polymerase expressed in transgenic cells.

A genetic complementation system was developed in which tobacco etch virus (TEV) polymerase (NIb)-expressing transgenic plants or protoplasts were inoculated with NIb-defective TEV mutants. A beta-glucuronidase (GUS) reporter gene integrated into the genomes of parental and four mutant viruses was used to assay RNA amplification. Two mutants (termed VNN and EDE) contained substitutions affectin...

Potyviral NIa proteinase, a proteinase with novel deoxyribonuclease activity.

The NIa proteinase from pepper vein banding virus (PVBV) is a sequence-specific proteinase required for processing of viral polyprotein in the cytoplasm. It accumulates in the nucleus of the infected plant cell and forms inclusion bodies. The function of this protein in the nucleus is not clear. The purified recombinant NIa proteinase was active, and the mutation of the catalytic residues His-4...

Expression of functionally active helper component protein of Tobacco etch potyvirus in the yeast Pichia pastoris.

Tobacco etch potyvirus (TEV) is transmitted by aphids in a non-persistent manner with the assistance of a virus-encoded protein known as helper component (HC-Pro). To produce a biologically active form of recombinant TEV HC-Pro protein, heterologous expression in the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris was used. A cDNA encoding the TEV HC-Pro region, fused to a Saccharomyces cerevisiae alpha-m...

From hypo- to hypersuppression: effect of amino acid substitutions on the RNA-silencing suppressor activity of the Tobacco etch potyvirus HC-Pro.

RNA silencing participates in several important functions: from the regulation of cell metabolism and organism development to sequence-specific antiviral defense. Most plant viruses have evolved proteins that suppress RNA silencing and that in many cases are multifunctional. Tobacco etch potyvirus (TEV) HC-Pro protein suppresses RNA silencing and participates in aphid-mediated transmission, pol...
