Genetic recombination in plant-infecting messenger-sense RNA viruses: overview and research perspectives 2013-03-26 .txt text/plain 6863 335 39 In some viruses, the frequency of homologous crossing-over is very high and practically every replicated viral RNA molecule can be considered as chimerical in nature, as we have demonstrated for brome mosaic virus (BMV) RNAs (Urbanowicz et al., 2005) . The generally accepted mechanism of RNA recombination is currently explained by a copy-choice model where the viral RNA polymerase (RdRp) complex in mRNA viruses [reverse transcriptase (RT) in retroviruses] changes templates during synthesis of the nascent strand (Galetto et al., 2006) . Among the factors known to promote replicase to switch are sequence homologies between recombination substrates along with secondary structures at the crossover sites, as demonstrated with the BMV and other systems (Figlerowicz and Bujarski, 1998; Nagy et al., 1999b) . Comparison among three plant RNA virus replication systems (TBSV, BMV, and dianthoviruses) reveals general patterns within the stepwise process of viral replicase complex assembly which requires concerted involvement of protein-protein, RNA-protein, and protein-lipid interactions (Mine and Okuno, 2012) . ./cache/cord-337361-salby0fu.txt ./txt/cord-337361-salby0fu.txt
