[Yau-Heiu Hsu] NbPsbO1 interacts specifically with Bamboo mosaic virus subgenomic RNA promoter and is required for efficient BaMV sgRNA transcription

Huang, Y-W et al., 2021 Journal of virology

We found NbPsbO1 specifically interacts with BaMV sgRNA promoter and is required for efficient BaMV sgRNA transcription but exerts no effect on gRNA replication. Our study provides insight into the host factor directing sgRNA promoter recognition, which will hasten our efforts to uncover the mysteries of viral RNA replication and transcription.
