  • Title: The genome-linked protein (VPg) of southern bean mosaic virus is encoded by the ORF2.
    Author: van der Wilk F, Verbeek M, Dullemans A, van den Heuvel J.
    Journal: Virus Genes; 1998; 17(1):21-4. PubMed ID: 9778784.
    Abstract:
    The sequence of the 20 N-terminal amino acids of the viral protein (VPg) which is covalently attached to the genomic RNA of the bean strain of Southern bean mosaic virus (SBMV-B) has been determined. The obtained VPg sequence mapped to position 327 to 346 of the SBMV-B ORF2 product, downstream of the putative protease domain and in front of the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase. Thus indicating that the sobemovirus genomic arrangement is similar to that of subgroup II luteoviruses. Comparison with other viral sequences revealed a high similarity with the sequence of the ORF2-product of the cowpea strain of SBMV (SBMV-C). No significant similarities were detected with amino acid sequences derived of other sobemoviruses or non-related viruses.
