Brome mosaic virus (BMV) is a plant virus whose genome consists of three RNA components. A previously described viral complementary DNA expression system has been used to express both wild-type and altered genomic RNA's in barley protoplasts. Variants of BMV RNA3 were constructed in which the coat gene had been removed or replaced with sequences encoding chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT). CAT sequences were also inserted near the 5' end of the intact coat gene. When inoculated on protoplasts together with transcripts of BMV RNA's 1 and 2, all of these RNA3 derivatives were replicated and produced subgenomic RNA's analogous to the normal subgenomic coat protein messenger RNA. RNA3 derivatives in which the CAT coding sequences were oriented with the same polarity as viral genes produced significant CAT activity in protoplasts. CAT expression was improved by inserting the CAT gene in frame with the upstream coat protein initiation codon, and exceeded expression in plant cells transformed with Ti plasmid-based vectors.
