Publisher Summary This chapter explores the recent studies on the chemistry of tobacco
mosaic virus (TMV), which provides insight into both the molecular basis of virus …

The history of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) includes many firsts in science, beginning with its
being the first virus identified. This review offers an overview of a history of research on TMV …

X-ray fiber diffraction analysis of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) has led to the building of a
molecular model of the intact virus, based on a map at 3.6 Å resolution derived from five …

When the first edition of this book was published in 1950, it set out to present an elementary
outline of the state of knowledge of nucleic acid biochemistry at that time and it was the first …

Methods employed at the Virus Res. Unit, Cambridge, for increasing the in-formation
obtainable from electron micrographs of virus particles are described. They include a …

Publisher Summary This chapter deals with the structural studies on small ribonucleic acid
(RNA)-containing viruses, and, in most detail, with tobacco mosaic virus (TMV). The TMV …

One century ago, MW Beijerinck contended that the filterable agent of tobacco mosaic
disease was neither a bacterium nor any corpuscular body, but rather that it was a …

The structure of tobacco mosaic virus has been solved to a resolution of 4 Å using fibre
diffraction methods. The general fold of the protein is clear, the conformation may be …

X-nAY small angle scattering is the plmnomenon of an X-ray beam passing through a
material object being partly diffracted at small angles. It is caused by inhomogeneitics of tlm …

Plant virus-based nanoparticles (VNPs) are a novel class of nanocarriers with unique
potential for biomedical applications. VNPs have many advantageous properties such as …
