The Structure and Composition of Crystalline Inclusions of Plant Viruses

Davor Miličić ; Hrvatska

Abstract

The main results obtained from the research into crystalline plant virus inclusions have been presented in this report. Special attention was paid to the cell inclusions of tobacco mosaic virus.
The crystalline cell inclusions can be built of virus particles (virus crystals) or of other proteins which do not represent virus particles (protein crystals). The virus crystals can occur in the form of true crystals, paracrystalline needles, complexly formed virus spindles, and tubular crystals. The protein crystals are built of proteins probably coded by viruses but are serologically different from the virus coat protein.
