| Peptide Synthesis | … RLTGECNITKVSLTN215-229. Peptides with single, double or triple mutations at RDG29-31 and N229 are described in Table 1. All peptides were synthesized at GenScript (NJ, USA;>95 % purity). Fig. 1.Soybean vein necrosis … | Get A Quote |
Orthotospoviruses are acquired by thrips during feeding on infected tissue. Virions travel through the foregut and enter midgut epithelial cells through the interaction between the viral glycoproteins and cellular receptors. Glycoprotein RGD motifs and N-linked glycosylation sites have been predicted to mediate receptor binding or play important roles in virus entry into host cells, yet their function needs to be validated. In this study, peptides derived from the soybean vein necrosis virus N glycoprotein were utilized to identify critical regions in virus-vector interactions. Transmission mediated by single Neohydatothrips variabilis dropped by more than 2/3 when thrips were fed on peptide NASIAAAHEVSQE or th... More
