Interaction between ferredoxin I (Fd I) and the CP. (A) A yeast two-hybrid system was used to analyse the interaction between Fd I and the CP of CMV-M. Transformed Saccharomyces cerevisiae AH109 cells were cultured on SD/−Ade/−His/−Leu/−Trp/X-α-Gal medium. 1, pGADT7-RecT/pGBKT7-Lam (negative control); 2, pGADT7/pGBK-MCP; 3, pGAD-FdI/pGBKT7; 4, pGAD-FdI/pGBK-MCP; 5, pGADT7-RecT/pGBKT7-53 (positive control). (B) Bimolecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC) analysis to verify the interaction between Fd I and the CP of CMV-M in Nicotiana benthamiana epidermal cells. Two combinations of BiFC plasmids (pMCP-YFPN/pFdI-YFPC and pFdI-YFPN/pMCP-YFPC) were inserted into plant cells with Agrobacterium tumefaciens, and YFP fluorescence was detected at 3 days post-agroinfiltration. The pSPYNE-35S/pSPYCE-35S plasmids were used as controls. Scale bars = 25 µm. (C) Yeast two-hybrid system to test the interaction between Fd I and the CP of CMV-Q. 1, pGADT7-RecT/pGBKT7-Lam (negative control); 2, pGADT7/pGBK-QCP; 3, pGAD-FdI/pGBKT7; 4, pGAD-FdI/pGBK-QCP; 5, pGADT7-RecT/pGBKT7-53 (positive control). (D) BiFC to verify the interaction between Fd I and the CP of CMV-Q in N. benthamiana epidermal cells.
