Visualization of the Interaction between the Precursors of VPg, the Viral Protein Linked to the Genome ofTurnip Mosaic Virus, and the Translation Eukaryotic Initiation Factor iso 4E In Planta

Abstract: The RNA genome of Turnip mosaic virus is covalently linked at its 5 end to a viral protein known as VPg. This protein binds to the translation eukaryotic initiation factor iso 4E [eIF(iso)4E]. This interaction has been shown to be important for virus infection, although its exact biological function(s) has not been elucidated. In this study, we investigated the subcellular site of the VPg-eIF(iso)4E interaction using bimolecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC). As a first step, eIF(iso)4E, 6K-VPg-Pro, and … Show more

“…interact within virus-induced vesicles (2). Our model, together with the earlier result of trypsin digestion protection of the central helix in vesicle interaction, raises the possibility that a membrane-embedded VPg could still interact with, e.g., eIF4E in the inner leaflet of the vesicle through the central helix.…”

“…Plasmids encoding VPg-Progreen fluorescent protein (GFP), VPg-Pro-DsRed, VPg-Pro-ctGFP, 6K-VPg-Pro-GFP, and ntGFP-eIF(iso)4E were described previously (3) Confocal microscopy. Sections from agroinfiltrated leaves were cut out and placed in immersion oil on a microscope coverglass.…”

“…Several potential translational components are associated with RCs of TuMV, including eIF(iso)4E, PABP, eEF1A, and AtRH8 (16)(17)(18)63), but their roles have remained elusive. They may function to regulate viral translation (64), as translation is coupled with replication (35) and RCs (65) during potyvirus infection.…”

“…The model virus of this study, Potato virus A (PVA), is a positive-stranded RNA virus belonging to the genus Potyvirus. Several host proteins that function in translation have been associated with RCs of Turnip mosaic virus (TuMV) (genus Potyvirus), including eIF(iso)4E, PABP, and eEF1A (16)(17)(18). Since both PABP and eEF1A interact with the TuMV RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp), PABP and eEF1A may function in RNA replication (18,19).…”
