title: Brome mosaic virus replicase proteins localize with the movement protein at infection-specific cytoplasmic inclusions in infected barley leaf cells.
abstract: Subcellular localization of the Brome mosaic virus replicase-related 1a and 2a proteins, and the 3a movement protein in infected barley leaves was examined by immunogold electron microscopy. The 1a and 2a proteins colocalized at infection-specific electron-dense cytoplasmic inclusions. The 3a protein was also detected in these inclusions. The inclusions were oval or amorphous, and contained electron-lucent regions. Electron microscopic autoradiography showed that the inclusions were sites of [3H]uridine incorporation, suggesting that they are sites of viral RNA synthesis.
