  • Title: A subgenomic RNA associated with cherry leafroll virus infections.
    Author: Brooks M, Bruening G.
    Journal: Virology; 1995 Aug 01; 211(1):33-41. PubMed ID: 7645232.
    Abstract:
    Cherry leafroll nepovirus (CLRV) genomic RNA 1 (8 kb) and genomic RNA 2 (7 kb) have 3' polyadenylate tracts and, extending 5' from the polyadenylate, nearly identical sequences of 1.6 kb termed the 3' common region. We observed RNAs 1 and 2 and a third RNA of 1.5 kb in nucleic acid extracts of CLRV-infected Nicotiana tabacum suspension cell protoplasts and Chenopodium quinoa plants, using a hybridization probe complementary to 1 kb of the 3' common region. The third RNA was partially purified by preparative gel electrophoresis and chromatography on an oligodeoxythymidylate column. Analyses of transcripts primed by a complementary oligodeoxyribonucleotide and of cDNA clones revealed that the third RNA corresponds to the 3' 1500 nucleotide residues of RNA 1. Hence we designate the newly characterized RNA as RNA 1A. RNA 1A was not detected as encapsidated RNA in extracts of either protoplasts or C. quinoa plants. The amount of accumulated RNA 1A declined between 24 and 48 hr after inoculation of protoplasts with CLRV virions, although CLRV RNAs 1 and 2 continued to accumulate. Other results were not consistent with cleaved RNA 1 being the origin of RNA 1A. RNA 1A has the properties of a subgenomic RNA, presumably synthesized from negative-sense RNA 1 as template.
