Abstract

"Plant proteins that bind to the cytoplasmic inclusion protein of Turnip mosaic virus (TuMV) will be analysed and identified. Initially, MALDI mass spectrometry will be used to identify peptides from tryptic digests of proteins pulled-down by immuno-precipitation and nickel affinity chromatography from plants. Their possible function will be determined by their homologies with other genes. These plant proteins will be used to seek novel sources of resistance to viruses."
