Abstract: | Summary We had proposed that both the initiation and growth of tobacco mosaic virus rods takes place from the RNA and protein disks, containing 34 protein subunits. Other workers have reported that growth occurs not from disks but from A-protein. We now review their experiments and show that they have not used disks, but rather two-disk stacks and that their results, but not conclusions, are compatible with our earlier findings. |
