Abstract

A new gene-expression system based on RNA-5 of (BNYVV) was constructed to allow the expression of recombinant proteins in virally infected cells. Replication and expression levels of the RNA-5-based replicon containing the green fluorescence protein (GFP) gene were compared with those obtained with the well-characterized RNA-3-derived replicon (Rep-3). When RNA-3 and/or RNA-4 BNYVV RNAs were added to the inoculum, the expression levels of RNA-5-encoded GFP were considerably reduced. To a lesser extent, RNA-3-derived GFP expression was also affected by the presence of RNA-4 and -5. Both RNA-3- and RNA-5-derived molecules were able to express proteins within the same infected cells. Together with Rep-3, the RNA-5-derived replicon thus provides a new tool for the co-expression of different recombinant proteins. In , Rep-5-GFP was able to move in systemic tissues in the presence of RNA-3 and thus provides a new expression system that is not restricted to the inoculated leaves.
