Summary
The sequence of 5,028 nucleotides, including one open reading frame (ORF), of rice tungro bacilliform virus (RTBV) dsDNA was determined. The predicted translational product comprises 1,675 amino acids and has Mr of 194, 134 (p194). The amino acid sequences of three tryptic fragments from the 32k capsid protein of RTBV (p32) were found in the predicted translational product indicating that the ORF codes for the RTBV capsid protein.
