Abstract excerpt
The capsid protein (CP) of potyviruses is required for various steps during plant infection, such as virion assembly, cell-to-cell movement, and long-distance transport. This suggests a series of compatible interactions with putative host factors which, however, are largely unknown. By using the yeast two-hybrid system the CP from Potato virus Y (PVY) was found to interact with a novel subset of DnaJ-like...
