Examination of the structures of TMV, cucumber green mottle mosaic virus and ribgrass mosaic virus, and site-directed mutagenesis experiments in which carboxylate groups were changed to the corresponding amides showed that initial stages of disassembly are driven by complex electrostatic interactions involving at least seven car boxylate side-chains and a phosphate group.

One century ago, M. Beijerinck contended that the filterable agent of tobacco mosaic disease was neither a bacterium nor any corpuscular body, but rather that it was a contagium vivum fluidum, followed by Mayer's path-breaking work on tobacco.
