A Single Amino Acid Substitution in the Coat Protein of Cucumber Mosaic Virus Induces Chlorosis in Tobacco

Some strains of cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) induce a bright yellow/white
chlorosis in tobacco instead of the light green/dark green mosaic induced
by most CMV strains. This property is controlled by RNA 3 of this
tripartite virus. Recombination between cDNA clones of RNA 3 from a green
mosaic strain, Fny-CMV, and a chlorotic strain, M-CMV, and inoculation of
infectious transcripts of the chimeric RNAs 3, together with RNAs 1 and 2
of Fny-CMV, localized the chlorosis induction domain to a region of the
coat protein gene containing two nucleotide differences. Site-directed
mutagenesis of one nucleotide to change the codon for Leu129 in the M-CMV
coat protein to Pro129 of Fny-CMV changed the phenotype from chlorotic to
green mosaic, whereas the opposite change in phenotype was observed when
the Pro129 in the Fny-CMV coat protein was altered to Ser129. Thus, the
local secondary structure surrounding amino acid 129 rather than a
particular amino acid per se is involved in chlorosis induction.
