| Abstract | Cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) aphid transmission factor (ATF or P18) is presumed to interact with both virus particles and vector mouthparts, thereby mediating virus aphid transmission. We developed a protein-protein binding assay and our results clearly show that virus particles bind strongly and specifically to P18 whether P18 was obtained from plants, a baculovirus expression system, or the pGEX-3X Escherichia coli expression system. We overproduced, using the pGEX-3X expression system, various fragments of P18 and thereby demonstrated that the C-terminal 31 amino acid residues are responsible for the interaction. Using PCR-based mutagenesis, 2 amino acid residues essential for interaction were identified. Point substitutions (amino acids 157 from Ile to Asn or 159 from Gly to Ser) were sufficient to abolish the interaction, whereas another mutation (amino acid 158 from Ile to Ser) had no effect on P18 virus binding. We evaluated whether there was a correlation between the ability of P18 to interact with CaMV particles and its biological activity. Aphid transmission assays were carried out and we demonstrated that the loss of the virus binding capacity had a dramatic effect on the ability of P18 to mediate aphid transmission. Thus, our results suggest that binding between P18 and virus particles is likely to be one of the molecular mechanisms involved in CaMV aphid transmission. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
