Tomato ringspot nepovirus (TomRSV) produces a 45 kDa movement protein and a 58 kDa coat protein in infected plants. Accumulation of the movement protein in relation to that of the coat protein was studied in infected protoplasts using a monoclonal antibody against the movement protein and polyclonal antibodies against the coat protein. Unlike most other viral movement proteins, the TomRSV movement protein was present at late stages of infection. Pulse-chase labelling experiments revealed that… 
Characterization of the membrane association of Tomato ringspot virus proteins containing the NTB binding domain
TLDR
Proteinase K protection assays using purified membranes from infected plants revealed that although the central portion of NTB is exposed to the cytoplasmic face of the membranes, an 8 kDa fragment, recognized by antiVPg antibodies, is protected by the membranes.
Subcellular Location and Expression of Tobacco Necrosis Necrovirus p7a Protein
TLDR
Differences in the detectable amounts of both proteins may reflect their differential stability in extracts from necrotic tissue and/or the transient expression of the putative movement protein early in the replication cycle of TNV-D.
Tomato Ringspot Virus Proteins Containing the Nucleoside Triphosphate Binding Domain Are Transmembrane Proteins That Associate with the Endoplasmic Reticulum and Cofractionate with Replication Complexes
TLDR
Proteinase K protection assays provide evidence that proteins containing the NTB domain are transmembrane proteins associated with ER-derived membranes and support the hypothesis that one or several of the proteinscontaining the N TB domain anchor the replication complex to the ER.
Interaction between two tomato ringspot virus replication proteins and endoplasmic reticulum membranes
TLDR
Two hydrophobic proteins encoded by T o R S V R N A 1, termed N T B V P g and X 2, were studied for their ability to associate with intracellular membranes in planta and in vitro to identify the viral membrane anchor proteins for the replication complex.
Proteolytic processing of tomato ringspot nepovirus 3C-like protease precursors: definition of the domains for the VPg, protease and putative RNA-dependent RNA polymerase.
TLDR
Direct N-terminal sequencing of the genomic RNA-linked VPg, of the mature protease purified from E. coli extracts and of radiolabelled mature polymerases purified from in vitro translation products revealed the sequences of the NTB-VPg, VPg-Pro and Pro-Pol dipeptide cleavage sites to be Q/S, Q/G and Q/s, respectively.
Mutagenesis of amino acids at two tomato ringspot nepovirus cleavage sites: effect on proteolytic processing in cis and in trans by the 3C-like protease.
TLDR
Analysis of ToRSV cleavage sites identified previously and in this study revealed that cleavage occurs at conserved Q/(G or S) dipeptides, and a Cys or Val is found in the -2 position.
Recovery of Nicotiana benthamiana Plants from a Necrotic Response Induced by a Nepovirus Is Associated with RNA Silencing but Not with Reduced Virus Titer
TLDR
It is demonstrated that although RNA silencing is active during recovery, reduction of virus titer is not required for the initiation of this phenotype, and the possibility that viral proteins, viral RNAs, and/or virus-derived siRNAs inactivate host defense responses is discussed.
Characterization of the X4 protein of Tomato ringspot virus and analysis of its variability among virus isolates
TLDR
It is suggested that within the context of a youth-services agency such as this, where children with special needs are placed in the care of adults, is a more appropriate role than in the case of a private sector agency.

Characterization and subcellular localization of tomato ringspot nepovirus putative movement protein.
TLDR
Immunogold-labeling studies revealed that in Nicotiana clevelandii the putative movement protein was found only in infected cells immediately adjacent to the necrotic tissue, and that it was associated with tubular structures containing virus-like particles present in or near the cell wall.
Virus-specific proteins in cells infected with tomato black ring nepovirus: evidence for proteolytic processing in vivo.
TLDR
The results suggest that the polymerase and the adjacent protease function in vivo largely or solely when combined in a 120K protein, and support the processing scheme for TBRV polyproteins proposed after analysis of the products of in vitro translation.
Expression of Cowpea Mosaic Virus M RNA in Cowpea Protoplasts
TLDR
The presence of the 105K, 95K, 58K and 48K proteins in CPMV-infected protoplasts indicates that separate initiation codons on the M RNA are used in vivo to produce the105K and 95K polyproteins, as demonstrated in vitro.
Immunodetection of the proteins encoded by grapevine chrome mosaic nepovirus RNA2.
TLDR
Analysis of the kinetics of accumulation of the proteins showed that the 44K and 46K proteins were very transient whereas the coat protein was more stable and could be detected up to 21 days after inoculation, providing the first direct in vivo data supporting the maturation map of the GCMV RNA2 polyprotein deduced from in vitro experiments.
Evidence for the involvement of the 58K and 48K proteins in the intercellular movement of cowpea mosaic virus.
TLDR
Immunogold labelling of sections of infected cells using antisera against a CPMV M RNA translation products, and Protein A-gold, showed that the 58K and/or 48K tentative transport proteins of C PMV were located in or on these tubular structures.
The cowpea mosaic virus M RNA-encoded 48-kilodalton protein is responsible for induction of tubular structures in protoplasts
TLDR
It is shown that expression of only the CPMV M RNA-encoded 48-kDa protein (48K protein) in cowpea protoplasts is sufficient to induce tubular structure formation, and it is not likely that the viral 48K protein, though playing a key role in cell-to-cell movement of C PMV, has a role in determining the host range of this virus.
Cauliflower mosaic virus gene I product (P1) forms tubular structures which extend from the surface of infected protoplasts.
TLDR
The time course of P1 accumulation in infected protoplasts paralleled the accumulation of virus coat protein, as measured by immunofluorescence microscopy, and did not indicate that P1 was an early gene product as has been suggested for other virus movement proteins.
Expression of the Middle Component RNA of Cowpea Mosaic Virus in vivo
TLDR
Results obtained indicate that, just like the bottom component RNA, the M RNA of CPMV is translated in vivo into a polyprotein from which proteins are derived by proteolytic cleavage.
Grapevine fanleaf nepovirus P38 putative movement protein is not transiently expressed and is a stable final maturation product in vivo.
TLDR
Tissue-prints and time course experiments on infected C. quinoa plants confirmed that P38 is present at a high level late in infection and is a final maturation product of the GFLV RNA2 polyprotein in vivo.
Virus movement in infected plants
TLDR
The movement of plant viruses from cell to cell is controlled by the action of virus‐encoded proteins, and one protein has been shown to have single‐stranded nucleic acid binding properties.
