"By contrast to the TCV [Turnip crinkle
virus] situation, packaging of RNA larger than wild type was observed
in vitro for
Cucumber mosaic virus
(CMV), another icosahedral RNA virus whose capsid
is 29 nm in diameter (primary source). The packaging
scheme for CMV RNAs is identical to that
of BMV (Brome mosaic
virus, Figure 2C): RNA1 (~3300 nt) and
RNA2 (~3000 nt) are packaged separately,
whereas RNA3 (~2200 nt) and its sgRNA4
(~1010 nt) are copackaged into a third virion
(primary source)." sgRNA=sub genomic RNA |
