Identification and RNA binding characterization of plant virus RNA silencing suppressor proteins.
Suppression is a common mechanism employed by viruses to evade the antiviral effects of the host's RNA silencing pathway. The activity of suppression has commonly been localized to gene products in the virus, but the variety of mechanisms used in suppression by these viral proteins spans nearly the complete biochemical pathway of RNA silencing in the host. This review describes the agrofiltrati...
متن کاملIdentification of an RNA silencing suppressor from a plant double-stranded RNA virus.
RNA silencing is a mechanism which higher plants and animals have evolved to defend against viral infection in addition to regulation of gene expression for growth and development. As a counterdefense, many plant and some animal viruses studied to date encode RNA silencing suppressors (RSS) that interfere with various steps of the silencing pathway. In this study, we report the first identifica...
متن کاملBeet yellows virus replicase and replicative compartments: parallels with other RNA viruses
In eukaryotic virus systems, infection leads to induction of membranous compartments in which replication occurs. Virus-encoded subunits of the replication complex mediate its interaction with membranes. As replication platforms, RNA viruses use the cytoplasmic surfaces of different membrane compartments, e.g., endoplasmic reticulum (ER), Golgi, endo/lysosomes, mitochondria, chloroplasts, and p...
متن کاملSize Selective Recognition of siRNA by an RNA Silencing Suppressor
RNA silencing in plants likely exists as a defense mechanism against molecular parasites such as RNA viruses, retrotransposons, and transgenes. As a result, many plant viruses have adapted mechanisms to evade and suppress gene silencing. Tombusviruses express a 19 kDa protein (p19), which has been shown to suppress RNA silencing in vivo and bind silencing-generated and synthetic small interferi...
متن کاملAn RNA-binding peptide from bovine immunodeficiency virus Tat protein recognizes an unusual RNA structure.
The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) Tat protein binds specifically to an RNA hairpin, TAR, located at the 5' end of its mRNA. Tat uses a single arginine residue within a short region of basic amino acids to recognize a bulge region in TAR. Here we show that a 17 amino acid arginine-rich peptide from the bovine immunodeficiency virus (BIV) Tat protein also binds to an RNA hairpin at the 5' en...
