RESUMEN
The complete genome sequence of a Brazilian isolate of yambean mosaic virus (YBMV) is presented. High-throughput sequencing (Illumina HiSeq) and Sanger sequencing revealed the complete genome sequence of the YBMV-BRA-6 isolate, found in Canavalia ensiformis. The de novo contigs were assembled into a 9612 nucleotides (nt) long scaffold, excluding the 3'-terminal poly(A) tail, covering the complete genome. The genomic RNA contains an open reading frame (ORF) typical of members of the genus Potyvirus, family Potyviridae, encoding a large putative polyprotein of 3078 amino acids (aa) and a small overlapping PIPO ORF. Pairwise comparisons showed that the YBMV-BRA-6 isolate sequence shares 88.1% nt identity for the complete genome and 90.6% aa identity for the polyprotein with the YBMV-SR isolate. Phylogenetic analysis grouped both isolates together and close to bean common mosaic virus (BCMV). The polyprotein cleavage sites were predicted and a recombination event is described.

In this study, the complete nucleotide sequence of a Brazilian isolate of cowpea severe mosaic virus (CPSMV) is presented for the first time. To date, the CPSMV-DG isolate, from the USA, is the only one with the complete known genome. High-throughput sequencing (Illumina HiSeq) and Sanger sequencing of the total RNA extract from a cowpea plant collected in Teresina city, Brazil, revealed the genome sequence of the CPSMV-Ter1 isolate. RNA-1 and RNA-2 are, respectively, 5921 and 3465 nucleotides (nt) long without the poly(A) tail, and show 77.91% and 76.08% nt sequence identity with CPSMV-DG, considered the type isolate of the species. The open reading frames (ORFs) were determined and the cleavage sites of the polyproteins were predicted. Although the two isolates show a similar genomic organization, there was a low percentage of sequence identity between Ter1 and DG. Furthermore, pairwise comparisons of a partial RNA-1 fragment between CPSMV-Ter1 and 11 CPSMV isolates from Brazil indicated 94.6 to 94.8% nt and 98.9% to 99.4% aa sequence identities.

The F-box domain is a protein structural motif of about 50 amino acids that mediates protein-protein interactions. The F-box protein is one of the four components of the SCF (SKp1, Cullin, F-box protein) complex, which mediates ubiquitination of proteins targeted for degradation by the proteasome, playing an essential role in many cellular processes. Several discoveries have been made on the use of the ubiquitin-proteasome system by viruses of several families to complete their infection cycle. On the other hand, F-box proteins can be used in the defense response by the host. This review describes the role of F-box proteins and the use of the ubiquitin-proteasome system in virus-host interactions.
