Abstract:
The complete nucleotide sequence of the genomic RNA 1 of the grapevine isolate NW (Neustadt an der Weinstrasse) of Arabis mosaic virus (ArMV) was determined. It is 7334 nucleotides long excluding the poly(A) tail, and contains one long open reading frame encoding a polypeptide of 2284 amino acids. The 5' and 3' non-coding regions were 227 and 252 nucleotides long respectively, and showed stretches of high identity with the corresponding 5' and 3' non-coding regions of ArMV-NW RNA 2. The analysis of the amino acid sequence of the polyprotein encoded by the RNA 1 of the ArMV-NW showed that the conserved amino acid motifs, characteristic for the viral protease co-factor, the NTP-binding protein, the cystein protease, and the RdRp core domains, were all present. Amino acid sequence comparisons between the polyproteins encoded by the RNAs 1 of ArMV-NW and other nepoviruses showed 75% identity with the GFLV-F13, and up to 36% with other nepoviruses.

This process occurs naturally in cells, often through the activity of genomically-encoded microRNAs. Researchers can take advantage of this mechanism by introducing synthetic RNAs to deactivate specific genes for research or therapeutic purposes. For example, RNAi could be used...
