Abstract

Investigation of the chemical nature and mode of action of the antiviral component (AVC) isolated from cellular juice of sugar beet leaves by ion-exchange chromatography have been conducted. It was established that inactivating ability for AVC is caused by effect of low-molecular weight proteins with proteolytic activity related to structural protein of TMV binding to RNA, givins rise to RNP-complex. Inactivation of TMV is a result of A VC-absorption on the viral particles surface, violation of morphology, aggregation of virus, and restriction of plant infection efficiency. Inhibition of trans-criptional activity of viral RNA and protein synthesis, cytophysiological reconstruction into TMV infected cells, probably, limit the replication and systemic transport of virus, that is displyed in symptomless TMV-infection of sugar beet plants.
