MPB2C, a Microtubule-Associated Plant Factor, Is Required for Microtubular Accumulation of Tobacco Mosaic Virus Movement Protein in Plants

Abstract: Movement protein binding 2C (MPB2C) is a plant endogenous microtubule-associated protein previously identified as an interaction partner of tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) mosaic virus movement protein (TMV-MP). In this work, the role of MPB2C in cell-to-cell transport of TMV-MP, viral spread of TMV, and subcellular localization of TMV-MP was examined. To this end, plants with reduced MPB2C levels were generated by a gene-silencing strategy. Local and systemic spread of TMV and cell-tocell movement of TMV-MP were … Show more

“…For instance, MBF1-like protein binds to Tomato mosaic virus (ToMV) MP and this interaction could modulate host gene expression to suppress the general defense response in plants (Matsushita et al, 2002). MPB2C and NtMPIP1 are involved in TMV cell-to-cell spread by interacting with TMV MP (Curin et al, 2007;Kragler et al, 2003). NtCPIP2a and NtCPIP2b act as potyviral susceptibility factors during Potato virus Y infection and along with heat shock protein 70, they act as plant chaperones and are essential for virus movement (Hofius et al, 2007).…”

“…This last finding and other studies (9)(10)(11)(12) have led to the suggestion that microtubules direct MP TMV to be degraded via proteasomes. However, the role of microtubules in TMV infection remains controversial (1,12).…”

“…However, this topological working model cannot explain several TMV MP properties. Some RNA-binding domains (2) or interactions with microtubules (9,17), chaperones (18), or cell wallassociated proteins (19) rely on TMV MP regions that are not accessible in the current model. Further investigations of the interaction of MPs with cellular membranes are needed to obtain a more complete understanding of the role of MPs in virus infection and cell-to-cell spread.…”
