Resumen
A cDNA fragment encoding the cytoplasmic inclusion protein of tobacco vein mottling virus was inserted into the plant expression cassette of a Ti plasmid-based binary vector. The vector was transferred to Agrobacterium tumifaciens, and following a modified leaf disc procedure, transformed tobacco plants were obtained. Analysis of poly(A)+ RNA from transgenic plants revealed a novel RNA of approximately 2100 nucleotides possessing tobacco vein mottling virus sequences. Also, immunoprecipitation of protein extracts of [35S]methionine-labeled transformed callus using anti-cytoplasmic inclusion protein antiserum revealed a polypeptide of approximately 70 kDa. This size is consistent with that predicted from the inserted tobacco vein mottling virus coding sequences. Together these data demonstrate the expression of the cytoplasmic inclusion protein in the absence of viral infections.
