Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) Replicase and Movement Protein Function Synergistically in Facilitating TMV Spread by Lateral Diffusion in the Plasmodesmal Desmotubule of Nicotiana benthamiana
Virus spread through plasmodesmata (Pd) is mediated by virus-encoded movement proteins (MPs) that modify Pd structure and function. The MP of Tobacco mosaic virus (TMVMP) is an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) integral membrane protein that binds viral RNA (vRNA), forming a vRNA:MP:ER complex. It has been...
