The Consensus N-Myristoylation Motif of a Geminivirus AC4 Protein Is Required for Membrane Binding and Pathogenicity

Some geminiviruses encode a small protein, AC4, whose role in pathogenesis has only recently attracted attention. A few studies have shown that this protein is involved in pathogenesis and suppresses RNA silencing. Here, using Nicotiana benthamiana, we show that East African cassava mosaic Cameroon...
