Abstract

Preparations of tobacco etch virus (TEV) RNA which were purified by sucrose gradient centrifugation, digested with RNase, and analyzed by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis contained proteins of 49, 32, and 24 kDa. The 49and 24-kDa proteins reacted with polyclonal antiserum to the TEV 49-kDa proteinase while the 32-kDa protein reacted with anti-TEV serum. Further purification of the RNA by centrifugation through CsCl removed the coat protein (32 kDa), but not the 49- and 24-kDa proteins. The 49- and 24-kDa proteins did not migrate into a polyacrylamide gel when the RNA was not digested with RNase. These results indicate that the VPg of TEV is either the 49-kDa proteinase or the 24 kDa that represents the amino-terminal half thereof.
