Synthesis of tobacco mosaic virus coat protein following migration of viral RNA into isolated mouse liver mitochondria.

PMCID: PMC343539  PMID: 1187342

Abstract

RNA of Tobacco Mosaic Virus is shown to be able to migrate into isolated mouse liver mitochondria, whence it can be reisolated intact. The migration of RNA is accompanied by enhanced rate of protein synthesis, which is sensitive to chloramphenicol, but not to cycloheximide. Evidence is presented showing that, among the products formed is the coat protein of Tobacco Mosaic Virus.
