A potyvirus (Su-94-54) was isolated from a naturally infected snake cucumber (Cucumis melo var. flexuosus) plant with severe mosaic and leaf deformation symptoms collected in Eastern Sudan. This isolate has a host range limited to cucurbits and is serologically distantly related to Moroccan watermelon mosaic virus (MWMV) and to Papaya ringspot virus (PRSV).

The DNA probes--pA6-CSF-1 and pA2-CSF-1 for the alternative splicing region of the 6 exon human CSF-1 gene were prepared using PCR and subsequent subcloning in pUC19 plasmid at the XmaI/BamHI sites. Due to the insert sequencing and blotting of human leukocytes DNA, the DNA probes obtained can be useful for screening of mutations in the human CSF-1 gene.

TMV-like RNP complexes were reconstituted from TMV protein and synthetic polynucleotides. Analysis of the pH stability of RNP with polynucleotides containing U, G, or their analogues reveals a correlation between the stability of their structure and the pK values of the bases, and indicates that the -NH-CO-groups of U and G are involved in hydrogen bonding with protein. It is suggested that TMV protein has two U- and one G-specific binding sites which, according to the phase position of the protein subunits relative to the origin of TMV assembly (D.
