Abstract:Availability of adequate quantity of purified virus preparation from plant tissue is the major limitation in producing polyclonal antibodies (PAb) to begomovirus. Very few examples show successful utilization of E. coli expressed recombinant coat protein (CP) for immuno diagnosis of begomoviruses. In the present study, *771 bp CP gene (*29.0 kDa) of Pumpkin yellow vein mosaic virus (PYVMV) was expressed as a *71.0 kDa fusion protein with maltose binding protein (MBP) (*42.0 kDa) in E. coli. The MBP-CP was obta… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
