Bean golden mosaic virus (BGMV) is a whitefly-transmitted, ssDNA geminivirus with a bipartite genome. AC1 is the only ORF required for geminiviral replication. A putative NTP-binding motif, EGX4GKTX32DD, was present in the derived amino acid sequence of the replication-associated protein from the AC1 ORF for 13 geminiviruses including BGMV-GA (Guatemalan isolate, amino acids 221-263). We analyzed the phenotypes of mutations within this domain using a rapid and sensitive PCR-based assay for geminiviral replication developed for these studies. Replication in tobacco cells (NT-1 suspension cells) and infection of beans were abolished when codons were changed from K228 to H or D262 to R within the putative NTP-binding site. A temperature-sensitive replication phenotype was conferred by changing E221 to R within the putative NTP-binding domain. Replication was unaffected by changing a nonconserved codon near the putative NTP-binding domain from 1190 to R. Our results demonstrate that the putative NTP-binding domain is required for geminiviral replication. The role of NTP hydrolysis and the possible value of these mutants in a trans-dominant interference scheme for virus-derived resistance are discussed.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007887 Fabaceae The large family of plants characterized by pods. Some are edible and some cause LATHYRISM or FAVISM and other forms of poisoning. Other species yield useful materials like gums from ACACIA and various LECTINS like PHYTOHEMAGGLUTININS from PHASEOLUS. Many of them harbor NITROGEN FIXATION bacteria on their roots. Many but not all species of "beans" belong to this family.
