The cauliflower mosaic virus gene III product is a non-sequence-specific DNA binding protein.
The interaction of the gene III product, P15, of cauliflower mosaic virus with different double-stranded DNA fragments of the viral genome was investigated. The results suggest that gene III product which showed DNA binding activity is a structural protein of the viral particle.
