Abstract
Coding sequences of ORF I from cauliflower mosaic virus were cloned in an Escherichia coli expression vector. A protein derived from this ORF was used to raise antibodies in rabbits. Immunoblots revealed that in infected plants the ORF I protein with an apparent molecular weight of 41 kDa is part of the viral inclusion bodies and is absent from purified virus particles. Amino acid sequence homologies of the ORF I protein with other proteins are discussed.

Abstract
The capsid protein of the cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) was expressed in a bacterial system to study CaMV assembly. Bacterial lysates contained soluble particulate material and insoluble inclusion bodies that were both used for analysis. In vitro renaturation of pIV derivatives lead to the appearance of folded sheets or large tubular structures in electron microscopy. The region between amino acid positions 77 and 332 is sufficient for self-aggregation of pIV in vitro. C-terminal deletion to amino acid position 265 still allowed dimerization but prevented further aggregation. Nucleic acid binding assays of immobilized pIV derivatives demonstrated that a region located upstream of the retroviral "zinc finger-like" motif is involved in unspecific binding dsDNA, ssDNA and RNA.

Abstract
The electrophoretic forms of purified cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV), strain Cabb-S, were examined by electrophoresis on agarose gels. Three populations of viral particles were identified: a faster migrating component (the form F) and two slower migrating components (the forms S and S'). When the different forms of virions, after excision from gels, were subjected to analysis in SDS-polyacrylamide gel, the fast component consisted of the 37 and 42 kDa coat proteins whereas the slow components contained mainly the 39 kDa coat protein. However, there was no difference among the nucleic acids associated within the three forms. The biological significance of the different components is discussed.

Abstract
The structures of the Cabb-B and CM1841 strains of cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) have been solved to about 3 nm resolution from unstained, frozen-hydrated samples that were examined with low-irradiation cryo-electron microscopy and three-dimensional image reconstruction procedures. CaMV is highly susceptible to distortions. Spherical particles, with a maximum diameter of 53.8 nm, are composed of three concentric layers (I-III) of solvent-excluded density that surround a large, solvent-filled cavity (approximately 27 nm dia). The outermost layer (I) contains 72 capsomeric morphological units, with 12 pentavalent pentamers and 60 hexavalent hexamers for a total of 420 subunits (37-42 kDa each) arranged with T = 7 icosahedral symmetry. CaMV is the first example of a T = 7 virus that obeys the rules of stoichiometry proposed for isometric viruses by Caspar and Klug (1962, Cold Spring Harb. Symp. Quant. Biol. 27, 1-24), although the hexameric capsomers exhibit marked departure from the regular sixfold symmetry expected for a structure in which the capsid protein subunits are quasi-equivalently related. The double-stranded DNA genome is distributed in layers II and III along with a portion of the viral protein. The CaMV reconstructions are consistent with the model based on neutron diffraction studies (Kruse et al., 1987, Virology 159, 166-168) and, together, these structural models are discussed in relation to a replication-assembly model (Hull et al., 1987, J. Cell Sci. (Suppl.) 7, 213-229). Remarkable agreement between the reconstructions of CaMV Cabb-B and CM1841 suggests that other strains of CaMV adopt the same basic structure.

Abstract
The interaction of the gene III product, P15, of cauliflower mosaic virus with different double-stranded DNA fragments of the viral genome was investigated. The results suggest that gene III product which showed DNA binding activity is a structural protein of the viral particle.

Abstract
The cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) particle-associated protein kinase (PK) was shown to be a 37 kD protein in activity gels. In vitro experimental data concerning virus dephosphorylation or hyperphosphorylation suggested a possible regulation mechanism of this PK. The origin of the enzyme, either virus-encoded or from a host cell, is discussed.

Abstract
A CaMV DNA fragment corresponding to nucleotides 2200-3992 and including the coding sequence (2200-3670) of open reading frame IV was inserted in the pTG908 prokaryotic expression vector. In the recombinant pTG-IV plasmid, ORF IV, which codes for the coat protein precursor, was fused to the N-terminal coding sequence of the lambda CII gene, which is under transcriptional control of the lambda PL promoter. The expected fusion protein CII-ORF IV had a calculated molecular weight of 58.4 Kd. Nevertheless, temperature induction of the PL promoter resulted in synthesis of a major 76-Kd fusion protein: the coat protein precursor migrated abnormally on SDS polyacrylamide gel.

Abstract
Open reading frame (ORF) V of cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV), the candidate for the reverse transcriptase gene, has been expressed in E. coli under control of the PR promoter of bacteriophage lambda either as an N-terminal polypeptide fused to beta-galactosidase or as the total ORF V without fusion. Antibodies against these proteins were used to analyze extracts from CaMV-infected plants by immunoblotting. ORF V-specific polypeptides of 80, 62, 58, 22, and 18 kD apparent molecular weights were detected, with the largest species corresponding to the full length translation product. The 62 and 22 kD species could be assigned to the N-terminus and the remaining two species to the C-terminus of the ORF.

Abstract
Specific antisera were prepared to the inclusion body protein (gene VI product) and the gene I product of cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV). Translational fusions between the lacZ gene and gene VI or gene I were constructed by cloning the relevant DNA fragments into the expression vectors pUR290, pUR291 or pUR292. Large amounts of fusion protein were synthesized when the inserted DNA fragment was in frame with the lacZ gene of the expression vector. These fusion proteins were used to raise specific antisera to gene VI and gene I proteins of CaMV. Antiserum to the gene VI product detected a range of proteins in crude extracts and in a subcellular fraction enriched for virus inclusion bodies. This range of proteins was further shown to be related to gene VI by Staphylococcus aureus V8 partial proteolysis. Antiserum to the gene I product detected viral specific proteins of 46, 42 and 38 K in preparations of CaMV replication complexes from infected plants but not in any other subcellular fraction.

Abstract
Antiserum was prepared against a synthetic peptide corresponding to the C-terminal 25 amino acids (aa) of the protein encoded by cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) gene V, which is thought to be a reverse transcriptase involved in viral DNA replication. This antiserum was used to detect the expression of CaMV gene V either in Escherichia coli JM103 transformed by an expression vector containing CaMV gene V or in CaMV-infected plants. In both cases, an 80-kDal protein has been detected.

Abstract
Analysis of the sequence of CaMV full-length 35S transcript reveals two features which may relate to the translation of open regions I-V. There is a region in the 5' leader sequence which could act as a ribosome binding site. This is followed by a sequence, which is complementary to sequences which are found just upstream to the open regions. The singificance of these sequences is discussed.

Abstract
Cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) capsid polypeptides were detected by immunoelectroblotting ('Western blotting') 10-16 days after infection of Chinese cabbage leaves. The predominant polypeptides detected had molecular weights of 42,000 and 37,000 suggesting that in vivo proteolysis of the 55,000-58,000 molecular weight coat protein had taken place. The use of laboratory-made nitrocellulose membranes for Western blotting is reported. Phosphate-SDS buffer was more suitable than Tris-glycine buffer for the electrophoretic transfer of CaMV polypeptides. Specific antibodies prepared by absorption to intact CaMV were used as a probe for the viral coat proteins.

Abstract
Infection of young turnip leaves with an aphid-transmissible isolate, Cabb B-JI, of cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) causes synthesis of an Mr 18 000 polypeptide (p18) which co-purifies with virus inclusion bodies. This polypeptide is not detectable in leaves infected with either of two aphid non-transmissible isolates. Campbell and CM4-184. Construction in vitro, of hybrid genomes between Cabb B-JI and Campbell isolates demonstrates that aphid transmissibility and presence of p18 is dependent on the small genome fragment from the BstEII site to the XhoI site. A deletion made in this fragment within open reading frame (ORF) II causes loss of aphid transmissibility and also terminates production of p18. We conclude that aphid transmissibility and the presence of p18 are related to the expression of ORF II of the CaMV genome.

Abstract
The double-stranded DNA from the isolate D/H with an altered virulence of the cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) contains 8016 bp. The DNA is circular and possesses, like the DNA of most CaMV strains, three sequence interruptions. The comparison of its sequence with the previously published sequences of two other CaMV strains (Cabb-S and CM 1841) leads to the following conclusions: (1) The genetic organization of all three CaMV strains is identical with six potential genes (open reading frames) and two intergenic regions; (2) considered pairwise, the three DNAs differ from one another by only about 5% with base substitutions accounting for most of the changes although several deletions and insertions are also observed. The sequence differences among the three strains are spread in a uniform manner upon the genome except for the two intergenic regions, which are more highly conserved. The stability of the noncoding regions is probably linked to the fact that they carry sequences important for the initiation and termination of transcription. On the other hand, the sequence variation in the open reading frames has relatively little effect on the sequence of the corresponding polypeptides as changes occur preferentially in the third position of the reading frame triplets. It is anticipated that knowledge of the DNA sequences of several CaMV strains will facilitate construction of inter-strain recombinants which, once available, can be used to correlate gene structure and function.
