Cloned(Commentary)

Cloned (Comment) Organism
transient co-expression of the tobacco enzyme with Tobacco mosaic virus TMV-GFP fusion protein in Nicotiana benthamiana plants via transfection mediated by Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain GV3110, the co-expression results in increased virus-induced RNA silencing with inhibition of GFP production, virus RNA degradation, stimulation of siRNAs production, overview Nicotiana benthamiana

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
395A396A an enzymatically inactive proPME mutant Nicotiana benthamiana
additional information expression of proPME enhances the GFP transgene-induced gene silencing accompanied by relocation of the DCL1 protein from nucleus to the cytoplasm and activation of siRNAs and miRNAs production, inhibition of proPME gene expression stimulates the TMV vector reproduction, overview Nicotiana benthamiana
