Rice stripe virus (RSV) infects rice and causes great yield reduction in some Asian countries. In this study, rice cDNA library was screened by a Gal4-based yeast two-hybrid system using pc4, a putative movement protein of RSV, as the bait. A number of positive colonies were identified and sequence analysis revealed that they might correspond to ten independent proteins. Two of them were selected and further characterized. The two proteins were a J protein and a small Hsp, respectively. Interactions between Pc4 and the two proteins were confirmed using coimmunoprecipitation. Implications of the findings that pc4 interacted with two chaperone proteins were discussed.
水稻条纹病毒(RSV)感染水稻,并在一些亚洲国家导致大幅减产。在本研究中,以RSV的一种假定运动蛋白Pc4为诱饵,通过基于Gal4的酵母双杂交系统筛选水稻cDNA文库。鉴定出许多阳性菌落,序列分析表明它们可能对应十种独立的蛋白质。从中选择了两种并进行进一步表征。这两种蛋白质分别是一种J蛋白和一种小热激蛋白。通过免疫共沉淀证实了Pc4与这两种蛋白质之间的相互作用。讨论了Pc4与两种伴侣蛋白相互作用这一发现的意义。
