Use of modified plum pox virus coat protein genes developed to limit heteroencapsidation-associated risks in transgenic plants.

Abstract: Aphid transmission of a non-aphid-transmissible strain of zucchini yellow mosaic virus (ZYMV-NAT) occurs in transgenic plants expressing the plum pox potyvirus (PPV) coat protein (CP) gene. Heteroencapsidation has been shown to be responsible for this modification in the epidemiological characteristics of the infecting virus. In order to prevent this biological risk, several modified PPV CP constructs were produced that were designed to interfere with heteroencapsidation itself or to block aphid transmission o… Show more

“…The dendrogram was produced using the neighbour-joining algorithm with 1,000 bootstrap replicates Koonin and Dolja 1993) and the DAG motif at aa 290-292 of the polyprotein (aa 24-26 of CP) is related to the vector transmission of potyviruses (Harrison and Robinson 1988;Atreya et al 1990;Shukla et al 1994). Two highly conserved amino acids, R and D, at aa 436 and 480 of the polyprotein presenting at aa 170 and 214 of CP involve in virion assembly (Jacquet et al 1998). The consensus motifs and amino acids are also present in BaRMV RNA.…”

“…This motif is also shown to be absent in previously characterized tritimoviruses ONMV, WSMV, BrSMV and WEqMV. However, the two amino acids that are highly conserved among potyvirids in the core of the CP and involved in virion assembly motif [21], Arginine 403 (R) in the core region of the CP and at distance of 44 amino acids aspartic acid 448 (D) at the C terminal was present in the sequence of YOgMV (Fig. 3).…”

“…Heteroencapsidation was shown to occur very rarely in potyvirus-resistant transgenic squash and, since it concerns only a single generation (it is a phenotypic change that does not affect the viral genome), heteroencapsidation is considered as having a limited significance in terms of risks (Fuchs & Gonsalves, 2007). In addition, use of constructs with modified CP genes that would prevent heteroencapsidation is possible ( Jacquet et al, 1998).…”
