Abstract excerpt
Potato virus X (PVX) encodes three movement proteins, TGBp1, TGBp2 and TGBp3. The 8 kDa TGBp3 is a membrane-embedded protein that has an N-terminal hydrophobic sequence segment and a hydrophilic C terminus. TGBp3 mutants with deletions in the C-terminal hydrophilic region retain the ability to be targeted to cell peripheral structures and to support limited PVX cell-to-cell movement, suggesting that the basic...
