Popis: | To establish an infection, most plant viruses move from cell to cell in the plant. Virus-encoded movement proteins mediate this process and appear to use two mechanisms for transport. Both mechanisms involve interaction with and potential modification of plant intercellular connections, the plasmodesmata. Thus, although viral movement proteins are a diverse group, they share an ability to interact with specific plant components. |
