Abstract excerpt
The Arabidopsis resistance protein HRT recognizes the Turnip crinkle virus (TCV) coat protein (CP) to induce a hypersensitive response (HR) in the resistant ecotype Di-17. The CP also interacts with a nuclear-targeted NAC family of host transcription factors, designated TIP (TCV-interacting protein). Because binding of CP to TIP prevents nuclear localization of TIP, it has been proposed that TIP serves as a...
