Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation Potato HIP2 was identified as a microtubule-associated protein similar to Arabidopsis SPR2.
- Intervention effect Potato HIP2 complemented the Arabidopsis spr2 phenotype.
- Observation PVA HCpro interacted with HIP2 from potato and tobacco.
- Observation The HIP2–HCpro interaction was detected at cortical microtubules and intersections in PVA-infected leaves.
- Mechanism The C-proximal α-helix-rich HIP2 domain determined interaction with HCpro.
- Mechanism The HIP2 N-proximal putative TOG domain and central coiled-coil domain controlled HIP2 dimerization and microtubule binding.
- Intervention effect HIP2 silencing significantly reduced PVA accumulation in N. benthamiana leaves.
