“…In recent several years, P0 proteins from various poleroviruses have been shown to function as VSRs (Pazhouhandeh et al, 2006;Mangwende et al, 2009;Csorba et al, 2010;Han et al, 2010;Kozlowska-Makulska et al, 2010;Delfosse et al, 2014;Zhuo et al, 2014;Almasi et al, 2015;Cascardo et al, 2015;Chen et al, 2016). Several regions within P0 are essential for their silencing suppression activity, including a consensus F-box-like motif (LPXX(L/I)X 10-13 P) and the Phe/Trp (FW) residues within the C-terminal consensus sequence ((K/R) IYGED GX 3 FWR) (Pazhouhandeh et al, 2006;Bortolamiol et al, 2007;Mangwende et al, 2009;Han et al, 2010;Fusaro et al, 2012;Delfosse et al, 2014;Zhuo et al, 2014;Almasi et al, 2015;Chen et al, 2016). P0 proteins encoded by TuYV and a few other polerovirus members were reported to interact with S phase kinase-associated protein 1 (SKP1), a member of the SKP1-Cullin 1-F-box (SCF) E3 ubiquitin ligase complex, through the consensus F-box-like motif (Pazhouhandeh et al, 2006;Zhuo et al, 2014;Almasi et al, 2015).…”
