Analyzing the G3BP-like gene family of Arabidopsis thaliana in early turnip mosaic virus infection
Abstract The Arabidopsis thaliana genome encodes several genes that are known or predicted to participate in the formation of stress granules (SG). One family of genes encodes for Ras GTPase-activating protein–binding protein (G3BP)-like proteins. Seven genes were identified, of which one of the mem...
