Abstract excerpt
The coat protein (CP) open reading frame (ORF) of brome mosaic virus (BMV) has been mutated to study host-related CP functions in barley, a systemic host, and in Chenopodium hybridum L. which supports both local lesion formation and systemic spread of BMV. To test the role of the N-terminal region of CP, mutants C1 to C3, which synthesized the CP lacking first seven amino acids, and mutant D1, which had Trp 22...
