Abstract
Geminiviral replication initiator protein (Rep) is a key player in geminiviral rolling circle mode of replication. However, the virus exploits various host cellular machineries for its replication. Study of these host factors is important to understand the geminiviral DNA replication in greater details. With this view, we screened for the peptides interacting with the Rep protein of a representative of geminivirus, namely, Mungbean yellow mosaic India virus (MYMIV), employing phage display technique. Through this screen, we have identified a host transcription factor, NAC083, as a potential MYMIV-Rep-binding partner. In silico docking studies also suggested possible binding of NAC083 peptide to MYMIV-Rep. We validated the interaction between MYMIV-Rep and Arabidopsis thaliana full-length NAC083 protein using in vitro pull-down assay and yeast two-hybrid analysis. NAC proteins are well-known transcription factors belonging to the largest gene families in plants. This study demonstrates for the first time the interaction of NAC083, a member of NAC transcription factor family, with MYMIV-Rep protein thereby indicating its possible role in MYMIV DNA replication.
