Abstract
A series of novel anthranilic diamide derivatives (5a-5ab) containing moieties of trifluoromethylpyridine and hydrazone was designed and synthesized. The synthesized compounds were evaluated in vivo for their activities against tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) and cucumber mosaic virus (CMV). Most of the synthesized compounds displayed good to excellent antiviral activities. The compounds 5i, 5k, 5s, 5w, 5x, and 5z had the curative activity over 65% against TMV at the concentration of 500 μg/mL, which were significantly higher than those of ningnanmycin (55.0%) and ribavirin (37.9%). Notably, the curative activity of compound 5i was up to 79.5%, with the EC50 value of 75.9 μg/mL, whereas the EC50 value of ningnanmycin was 362.4 μg/mL. The pot experiments also further demonstrated the significantly curative effect of 5i. Meanwhile, compounds 5h, 5p and 5x displayed more protective activities on TMV than that of ningnanmycin. Moreover, compounds 5a, 5e, 5f, and 5i showed inactivation activity similar to ningnanmycin at 500 μg/mL, and the EC50 value of 5e (41.5 μg/mL) was lower than ningnanmycin (50.0 μg/mL). The findings of transmission electron microscopic (TEM) indicated that the synthesized compounds exhibited strong and significant binding affinity to TMV coat protein (CP) and could obstruct the self-assembly and increment of TMV particles. Microscale thermophoresis (MST) studies on TMV-CP and CMV CP revealed that some of the active compounds, particularly 5i, exhibited a strong binding capability to TMV-CP or CMV-CP. This study revealed that anthranilic diamide derivatives containing moieties of trifluoromethylpyridine and hydrazone could be used as novel antiviral agents for controlling the plant viruses.

Abstract
As a continuation of our efforts to discover and develop "me-better" active molecules, in this study, a series of novel isoxazole-amide derivatives containing an acylhydrazone moiety were synthesized and evaluated for their antiviral activities against tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) and cucumber mosaic virus (CMV). Antiviral bioassays indicated that some of the target compounds exhibited better in vivo antiviral activities against TMV and CMV than those of Ningnanmycin (NNM). Especially, the compound 7t exhibited the best curative, protection, and inactivation activities against TMV and CMV which were superior to those of NNM. Meanwhile, our present work also revealed that compound 7t could enhance the defense-related enzyme activity and increase the chlorophyll content in tobacco leaves to induce resistance and enhance plant tolerance to TMV infection.

Abstract
Novel purine nucleoside derivatives containing a sulfonamide moiety were prepared, as well as their antiviral activities against potato virus Y (PVY), cucumber mosaic virus (CMV), and tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) were evaluated. The antiviral mechanisms of the compounds were investigated. Results showed that most of the compounds had good antiviral activities. Compound 5 at 500 μg/mL exhibited excellent curative and protective activities of 52.5% and 60.0% and of 52.0% and 60.2% for PVY and CMV, respectively, which are higher than those of ningnanmycin (48.1%, 49.6%; 45.3%, 47.7%), ribavirin (38.3%, 48.2%; 40.8%, 45.5%), and chitosan oligosaccharide (32.5%, 33.8%; 35.1%, 34.6%). Moreover, compound 5 displayed good inactivating activity against TMV, with an EC50 value of 48.8 μg/mL, which is better than that of ningnanmycin (84.7 μg/mL), ribavirin (150.4 μg/mL), and chitosan oligosaccharide (521.3 μg/mL). The excellent antiviral activity of compound 5 is related to its immune induction effect which can regulate the physiological and biochemical processes in plants, including defense-related enzyme activities, defense-related genes, and photosynthesis-related proteins. These results indicate that purine nucleoside derivatives containing a sulfonamide moiety are worthy of further research and development as new antiviral agents.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Seaweed oligosaccharides are environmentally-friendly natural products and their use for disease control in sustainable agriculture is extremely promising. Enzymatic digestion to prepare seaweed oligosaccharides has drawn considerable interest. However, the study of enzymatically degraded products of carrageenan is still in its infancy compared with that of other hydrocolloids such as agar and alginate. To prepare degraded carrageenan on a commercial scale, it is necessary to select superior producer bacterial strains to improve the yield and thermostability of carrageenases. RESULTS The carrageenan-degrading bacterium Bacillus sp. HT19 was isolated from sediment of a hot spring in Indonesia, and a κ-carrageenase with high activity was purified from the culture supernatant. The purified enzyme, named Car19, had maximum activity (538 U mg-1 ) at 60 °C and pH 7.0. Notably, the enzyme retained >90% of its initial activity after incubation at 60 °C for 24 h. The Ca2+ obviously improved the thermostability of Car19 at 70 °C. The Km and Vmax values of purified Car19 were 0.061 mg mL-1 and 115.13 U mg-1 , respectively, with κ-carrageenan as substrate. Thin-layer chromatography and electrospray ionization mass-spectrometry analysis of hydrolysates indicated that the enzyme exolytically depolymerized κ-carrageenan to neo-carrabiose. The hydrolysate enhanced the resistance of cucumber to cucumber mosaic virus and increased the activity of antioxidant enzymes in infected plants. CONCLUSION To our knowledge, Car19 is the most thermostable κ-carrageenase reported so far. Its high optimal reaction temperature and thermostability, and unitary hydrolysate constituent, makes Car19 a promising candidate for the preparation of carrageenan oligosaccharides with plant protection activity. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
A new concise and facile method was explored to synthesize a series of novel chalcone derivatives containing a purine and benzenesulfonamide moiety and their antiviral properties were evaluated against TMV and CMV. Biological assays indicated that several of the derivatives exhibited significant anti-TMV and anti-CMV activities in vivo. In particular, compound d2 displayed excellent inactivating activity against TMV, with the EC50 value of 51.65 μg/mL, which was better than that of ribavirin (150.45 μg/mL). Molecular docking showed that there are four hydrogen bonds between compound d2 and TMV coat protein (TMV-CP). Compound d2 demonstrated strong binding capacity to TMV-CP with Ka = 1.58 × 105 L/mol and Kd = 12.16 μM. These findings indicated that chalcone derivatives are worthy of further research and development as templates for new antiviral agents.

Abstract
A series of dithioacetal derivatives bearing a strobilurin moiety were designed and synthesized on the basis of our previous work. The antiviral activities of these compounds against Potato virus Y (PVY), Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV), and Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) were systematically evaluated. Bioassay results indicated that C14 elicited excellent curative and protective activities against PVY, CMV, and TMV. The former had 50% effective concentrations (EC50) of 125.3, 108.9, and 181.7 μg/mL, respectively, and the latter had 148.4, 113.2, and 214.6 μg/mL, respectively, which were significantly superior to those of lead compound 6f (297.6, 259.6, and 582.4 μg/mL and 281.5, 244.3, and 546.3 μg/mL, respectively), Ningnanmycin (440.5, 549.1, and 373.8 μg/mL and 425.3, 513.3, and 242.7 μg/mL, respectively), Chitosan oligosaccharide (553.4, 582.8, and 513.8 μg/mL and 547.3, 570.6, and 507.9 μg/mL, respectively), and Ribavirin (677.4, 690.3, and 686.5 μg/mL and 652.7, 665.4, and 653.4 μg/mL, respectively). Moreover, defensive enzyme activities and RT-qPCR analysis demonstrated that the antiviral activity was associated with the changes of SOD, CAT, and POD activities in tobacco, which was proved by the related proteins of abscisic acid signaling pathway. This work provided a basis for further design, structural modification, and development of dithioacetal derivatives as new antiviral agents.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ferulic acid and quinazoline derivatives possess good antiviral activities. In order to develop novel compounds with high antiviral activities, a series of ferulic acid ester derivatives containing quinazoline were synthesized and evaluated for their antiviral activities. RESULTS Bioassays indicated that some of the compounds exhibited good antiviral activities in vivo against tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) and cucumber mosaic virus (CMV). One of the compounds demonstrated significant curative and protective activities against TMV and CMV, with EC50 values of 162.14, 114.61 and 255.49, 138.81 mg L-1 , respectively, better than those of ningnanmycin (324.51, 168.84 and 373.88, 272.70 mg L-1 ). The values of q2 and r2 for comparative molecular field analysis and comparative molecular similarity index analysis in the TMV (0.508, 0.663 and 0.992, 0.930) and CMV (0.530, 0.626 and 0.997, 0.981) models presented good predictive abilities. CONCLUSION Some of the title compounds demonstrated good antiviral activities. Three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship models revealed that the antiviral activities depend on steric and electrostatic properties. These results could provide significant structural insights for the design of highly active ferulic acid derivatives. © 2017 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
The asymmetric synthesis of enantiomerically pure α-aminophosphonates with high and bioselective activities is a challenge. Here, we report that both enantiomers of α-aminophosphonates bearing the N-benzothiazole moiety can be prepared in high yields (up to 99%) and excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee) by using chiral thiourea organocatalysts. Evaluation of the antiviral activities of our reaction products against cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) led to promising hits with high and selective biological activities, wherein (R)-enantiomers exhibit higher biological activities than the corresponding (S)-enantiomers. Especially, compound (R)-3b with excellent anti-CMV activity (curative activity, 72.3%; protection activity, 56.9%; and inactivation activity, 96.9%) at 500 μg/mL emerged as a potential inhibitor of the plant virus. The difference in the selective bioactivity could be affected by the combination mode of the three-dimensional space between the enantiomers of α-aminophosphonate and cucumber mosaic virus coat protein (CMV-CP) via florescence spectroscopy and molecular docking.

Abstract
Increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) impacts plant growth and metabolism. Indirectly, the performance and feeding of insects is affected by plant nutritional quality and resistance traits. Life history and feeding behaviour of Myzus persicae were studied on pepper plants under ambient (aCO2, 400 ppm) or elevated CO2 (eCO2, 650 ppm), as well as the direct impact on plant growth and leaf chemistry. Plant parameters were significantly altered by eCO2 with a negative impact on aphid's life history. Their pre-reproductive period was 11% longer and fecundity decreased by 37%. Peppers fixed significantly less nitrogen, which explains the poor aphid performance. Plants were taller and had higher biomass and canopy temperature. There was decreased aphid salivation into sieve elements, but no differences in phloem ingestion, indicating that the diminished fitness could be due to poorer tissue quality and unfavourable C:N balance, and that eCO2 was not a factor impeding feeding. Aphid ability to transmit Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) was studied by exposing source and receptor plants to ambient (427 ppm) or elevated (612 ppm) CO2 before or after virus inoculation. A two-fold decrease on transmission was observed when receptor plants were exposed to eCO2 before aphid inoculation when compared to aCO2.

Abstract
The role of soluble silicon (Si) in alleviating viral plant infections is largely unknown. In order to analyse this gap in knowledge, this study provides insights into the relative gene expression data obtained from 1) control, 2) Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV)-infected and 3) sodium silica-treated, CMV-infected Cucumis sativus line B10 tissue cultures regenerated plants. The absence or presence of CMV was determined through RT-PCR, six days' post-inoculation. qRT-PCR was performed on five selected host genes related to CMV-defence (argonaute protein, WRKY transcription factor) and replication (chaperone, heat shock cognate protein, aquaporin). Relative gene expressions from Si-treated, CMV-infected clones were not significantly different from CMV-infected clones, but they were significantly different from the control plants. The upregulation of the chaperone, and heat shock cognate genes in Si-treated clones, is associated with enhanced virus replication, while the gene expression of the transcription factor increases and is related to defence, in contrast to decreased expression in CMV-infected clones. Aquaporin gene expression was downregulated and the argonaute expression was unaffected in both Si-treated, CMV-infected as well as CMV-infected clones. Since both alleviating and supportive gene shifts are observed in Si-treated plantlets for key genes related to the virus infection examined herein, sodium silica is suggested to have a neutral and limited impact on CMV infection in cucumber cultures.

Abstract
Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) causes mosaic disease in inoculated tobacco plants. Coat protein (CP) is one of the major virulence determinants of CMV, and an amino acid substitution at residue 129 in CP alters the severity of chlorosis, such as pale green chlorosis and white chlorosis, in symptomatic tissues of mosaic leaves of infected tobacco. In this study, we compared the transcriptomes of chlorotic tissues infected with the wild-type pepo strain of CMV and two strains carrying CP mutants with diverse chlorosis severity. Differential gene expression analysis showed that CMV inoculation appeared to have similar effects on the transcriptional expression profiles of the symptomatic chlorotic tissues, and only the magnitude of expression differed among the different CMVs. Gene ontology analysis with biological process and cellular component terms revealed that many nuclear genes related to abiotic stress responses, including responses to cadmium, heat, cold and salt, were up-regulated, whereas chloroplast- and photosynthesis-related genes (CPRGs) were down-regulated, in the chlorotic tissues. Interestingly, the level of CPRG down-regulation was correlated with the severity of chlorosis. These results indicate that CP mutation governs the repression level and mRNA accumulation of CPRGs, which are closely associated with the induction of chlorosis.

Abstract
Accepted 29 October 2013. Abscisic acid (ABA) plays a key role in modulating plant responses to different biotic and abiotic stresses. However, the effect of ABA on virus infection is not fully understood. Here, we describe the effects of the ABA pathway on the accumulation of Bamboo mosaic virus (BaMV) and Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) in two different hosts: Arabidopsis thaliana and Nicotiana benthamiana. We report that ABA2 plays a critical role in the accumulation of BaMV and CMV. Mutants downstream of ABA2 (aao3, abi1-1, abi3-1, and abi4-1) were susceptible to BaMV, indicating that the ABA pathway downstream of ABA2 is essential for BaMV resistance. The aba2-1 mutant decreased the accumulation of BaMV (+)RNA, (-)RNA, and coat protein, with the most dramatic effect being observed for (-)RNA. These findings were further validated by the use of virus-induced gene silencing and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in N. benthamiana. In addition, infecting N. benthamiana with BaMV or CMV increased ABA contents and activated the SA and ABA pathways, thereby disrupting the antagonism between these two cascades. Our findings uncover a novel role for ABA2 in supporting BaMV and CMV accumulation, distinct from the opposing role of its downstream genes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Polysaccharides inhibiting cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) on tobacco were screened and their influence on tobacco defensive enzyme activities was explored. METHOD We detected the deactivating, preventing and treating effect of 21 polysaccharides on CMV by half leaf method on Nitcotiana tabacum var. Samsun NN. We detected the variation of enzyme activity of Nitcotianatabacum var. NC89 handled by antiviral polysaccharide. RESULT Results show that Marasmiu sandrosaceus polysaccharide had good deactivating and preventing effect on CMV. The preventing rate could reach 83.41% when the tobacco was dealt with the admixture of its 200-fold dilution and equivalent virus liquid for 30 min. The inhibition rate could reach 93.15% when the tobacco was inoculated after spraying with M. androsaceus polysaccharide for 24h. Moreover, the diversification of enzyme activity of tobacco-related was detected. Results show that peroxidase (POD) , polyphenol oxidase (PPO) andphenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL) activities significantly enhanced. M. androsaceus polysaccharide sprayed on tobacco after inoculating CMV for 24h. Its enzyme activities increased. The peaksof POD, PPO and PAL activities ofthe treatment were 2.74, 3.45 and 2.82 times of the value of comparison, respectively. CONCLUSION M. androsaceus polysaccharide can increase the resistance of tobacco on CMV by enhancing defense enzyme activity of tobacco.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS The use of vitamins including vitamin B1, B2 and K3 for the induction of systemic acquired resistance (SAR) to protect crops against plant pathogens has been evaluated previously. The use of vitamins is beneficial because it is cost effective and safe for the environment. The use of folate precursors, including ortho-aminobenzoic acid, to induce SAR against a soft-rot pathogen in tobacco has been reported previously. METHODS In the present study, para-aminobenzoic acid (PABA, also referred to as vitamin Bx) was selected owing to its effect on the induction of SAR against Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. vesicatoria in pepper plants through greenhouse screening. KEY RESULTS Dipping of pepper seedlings in a 1 mm PABA solution in field trials induced SAR against artificially infiltrated X. axonopodis pv. vesicatoria and naturally occurring cucumber mosaic virus. Expression of the Capsicum annuum pathogenesis-related 4 gene was primed in response to pathogen infection as assessed by quantitative real-time PCR. The accumulation of cucumber mosaic virus RNA was reduced in PABA-treated pepper plants at 40 and 105 d post-treatment. Unexpectedly, fruit yield was increased in PABA-treated plants, indicating that PABA-mediated SAR successfully protected pepper plants from infection by bacterial and viral pathogens without significant fitness allocation costs. CONCLUSIONS The present study is the first to demonstrate the effective elicitation of SAR by a folate precursor under field conditions.

Abstract
Phytochemical analysis of the essential oils of Micromeria graeca (L.) Rchb from Vis and Komiza on the island of Vis (Croatia) showed them to have a similar chemical composition. The oxygenated sesquiterpene alpha-bisabolol was a major component of both oils with percentages of 13.9% in the oil from Vis and 15.5% in the oil from Komiza. A comparison of the mean number of lesions on the essential oil-treated Chenopodium quinoa plants infected with satellite-associated cucumber mosaic virus (satCMV) with the corresponding control showed that the oil from Vis caused delay in the development and reduction of the number of lesions by 59.3%. The essential oil of M. graeca from Komiza was not effective in the reduction of satCMV infection.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to compare the essential oil profiles of four Croatian Teucrium species (Lamiaceae), as determined by GC and GC/MS, with their antiphytoviral efficiency. A phytochemical analysis showed that T. polium, T. flavum, T. montanum and T. chamaedrys are characterized by similar essential oil compositions. The investigated oils are characterized by a high proportion of the sesquiterpene hydrocarbons β-caryophyllene (7.1–52.0%) and germacrene D (8.7–17.0%). Other important components were β-pinene from T. montanum and α-pinene from T. flavum. The investigated essential oils were proved to reduce lesion number in the local host Chenopodium quinoa Willd. infected with Cucumber Mosaic Virus (CMV), with reductions of 41.4%, 22.9%, 44.3% and 25.7%, respectively.

Abstract
The potential of the exopolysaccharide (EPS) from a Serratia sp. strain Gsm01 as an antiviral agent against a yellow strain of Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV-Y) was evaluated in tobacco plants (Nicotiana tabacum cv. Xanthi-nc). The spray treatment of plants using an EPS preparation, 72 before CMV-Y inoculation, protected them against symptom appearance. Fifteen days after challenge inoculation with CMVY, 33.33% of plants showed mosaic symptoms in EPS-treated plants compared with 100% in the control plants. The EPS-treated plants, which showed mosaic symptoms, appeared three days later than the controls. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analyses of the leaves of the protected plants revealed that the EPS treatment affected virus accumulation in those plants. Analysis of phenylalanine ammonia lyase, peroxidase, and phenols in protected plants revealed enhanced accumulation of these substances. The pathogenesis-related (PR) genes expression represented by PR-1b was increased in EPS-treated plants. This is the first report of a systemic induction of protection triggered by EPS produced by Serratia sp. against CMV-Y.

Abstract
Studies were undertaken to evaluate ozone for inactivation of Cucumber mosaic virus present in the inoculum and to stimulate Lycopersicon esculentum cv. PKM1 (tomato) plants against Cucumber mosaic virus infection by using the inactivated Cucumber mosaic virus inoculum. Application of a T(4) (0.4mg/l) concentration of ozone to the inoculum containing Cucumber mosaic virus resulted in complete inactivation of the virus. The inactivated viral inoculum was mixed with a penetrator (delivery agent), referred to as T(4) preparation, and it was evaluated for the development of systemic acquired resistance in the tomato plants. Application of a T(4) preparation 5 days before inoculation with the Cucumber mosaic virus protected tomato plants from the effects of Cucumber mosaic virus. Among the components of the inactivated virus tested, coat protein subunits and aggregates were responsible for the acquired resistance in tomato plants. In field trials, the results of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay revealed that, Cucumber mosaic virus accumulation was significantly less for all the test plants (16%) sprayed with the T(4) preparation than untreated control plants (89.5%) at 28 days postinoculation (dpi). A remarkable increase in the activities of the total soluble phenolics (10-fold) and salicylic acid (16-fold) was detected 5 days after the treatment in foliar extracts of test plants relative to untreated control plants. The results showed that treatment of tomato plants with inactivated viral inoculum led to a significant enhancement of protection against Cucumber mosaic virus attack in a manner that mimics a real pathogen and induces systemic acquired resistance.

Abstract
Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) and Cucumber mosaic virus expressing green fluorescent protein (GFP) were used to probe the effects of salicylic acid (SA) on the cell biology of viral infection. Treatment of tobacco with SA restricted TMV.GFP to single-epidermal cell infection sites for at least 6 d post inoculation but did not affect infection sites of Cucumber mosaic virus expressing GFP. Microinjection experiments, using size-specific dextrans, showed that SA cannot inhibit TMV movement by decreasing the plasmodesmatal size exclusion limit. In SA-treated transgenic plants expressing TMV movement protein, TMV.GFP infection sites were larger, but they still consisted overwhelmingly of epidermal cells. TMV replication was strongly inhibited in mesophyll protoplasts isolated from SA-treated nontransgenic tobacco plants. Therefore, it appears that SA has distinct cell type-specific effects on virus replication and movement in the mesophyll and epidermal cell layers, respectively. Thus, SA can have fundamentally different effects on the same pathogen in different cell types.

Abstract
Two mutant strains of cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) were investigated with respect to virion stability and molecular determinants of aphid vector transmission. The mutant 2A1-MT-60x, derived from the mechanically passaged wild type 2A1-AT, is poorly transmissible by the aphid Aphis gossypii and not transmissible by the aphid Myzus persicae, whereas the wild type virus is transmissible by both aphid species. The mutant phenotype was shown to be conferred by a single encoded amino acid change of alanine to threonine at position 162 of the coat protein (CP). Modifying the mutant CP gene to encode the wild type sequence (alanine) at position 162 restored aphid transmission. To test for a correspondence between changes in the physical stability of virions and defects in aphid transmission, a urea disruption assay was developed. Virions of aphid-transmissible strains 2A1-AT and CMV-Fny were stable with treatments of up to between 3 and 4 M urea. In this assay mutant viruses 2A1-MT-60x and CMV-M were less stable, as they were completely disrupted at urea concentrations of 2 and 1 M urea, respectively. The mutant 2A1-MT-60x also accumulated at a reduced level in infected squash relative to the wild type virus. These studies suggest that a primary factor in the loss of aphid transmissibility of some strains of CMV is a reduction in virion stability.

Abstract
We have designed ribozymes based on a self-splicing group I intron that can trans-splice exon sequences into a chosen RNA target to create a functional chimeric mRNA and provide a highly specific trigger for gene expression. We have targeted ribozymes against the coat protein mRNA of a widespread plant pathogen, cucumber mosaic virus. The ribozymes were designed to trans-splice the coding sequence of the diphtheria toxin A chain in frame with the viral initiation codon of the target sequence. Diphtheria toxin A chain catalyzes the ADP ribosylation of elongation factor 2 and can cause the cessation of protein translation. In a Saccharomyces cerevisiae model system, ribozyme expression was shown to specifically inhibit the growth of cells expressing the virus mRNA. A point mutation at the target splice site alleviated this ribozyme-mediated toxicity. Increasing the extent of base pairing between the ribozyme and target dramatically increased specific expression of the cytotoxin and reduced illegitimate toxicity in vivo. Trans-splicing ribozymes may provide a new class of agents for engineering virus resistance and therapeutic cytotoxins.

Abstract
Ribozymes are potential tools for genetic manipulation, and various naturally occurring catalytic RNAs have been dissected and used as the basis for the design of new endoribonuclease activities. While such cleaving ribozymes may work well in vitro, they have not proved to be routinely effective in depleting living cells of the chosen target RNA. Recently, trans-splicing ribozymes have been employed to repair mutant mRNAs in vivo. We have designed modified trans-splicing ribozymes with improved biological activity. These allow accurate splicing of a new 3' exon sequence into a chosen site within a target RNA, and in frame fusion of the exon can result in expression of a new gene product. These trans-splicing ribozymes contain catalytic sequences derived from a self-splicing group I intron, which have been adapted to a chosen target mRNA by fusion of a region of extended complementarity to the target RNA and precise alteration of the guide sequences required for substrate recognition. Both modifications are required for improved biological activity of the ribozymes. Whereas cleaving ribozymes must efficiently deplete a chosen mRNA species to be effective in vivo, even inefficient trans-splicing can allow the useful expression of a new gene activity, dependent on the presence of a chosen RNA. We have targeted trans-splicing ribozymes against mRNAs of chloramphenicol acetyltransferase, human immunodeficiency virus, and cucumber mosaic virus, and demonstrated trans-splicing and delivery of a marker gene in Escherichia coli cells. The improved trans-splicing ribozymes may be tailored for virtually any target RNA, and provide a new tool for triggering gene expression in specific cell types.
