Pns12 protein of Rice dwarf virus is essential for formation of viroplasms and nucleation of viral-assembly complexes
23 Jan 2006
Abstract excerpt
Cytoplasmic inclusion bodies, known as viroplasms or viral factories, are assumed to be the sites of replication of members of the family Reoviridae. Immunocytochemical and biochemical analyses were carried out to characterize the poorly understood viroplasms of the phytoreovirus Rice dwarf virus (RDV). Within 6 h of inoculation of cells, viroplasms, namely discrete cytoplasmic inclusions, were formed that...
