| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
MoCV1-A-derived ORF4 protein (811 aa) and AaCV1-derived ORF2 protein (776 aa) have 18.7% identity and 62.9% similarity, and both expression in yeast cells causes growth inhibition It became clear. As a result of RNA-Seq analysis, in yeast cells in which growth inhibition was observed due to MoCV1-A ORF4 expression, the expression level of the stress response gene was reduced by a factor of 5 to 20, or conversely It was found that the expression of genes involved in ergosterol resistance was increased. In addition, amino acid sequences involved in growth promotion were also newly identified, and mechanical analysis was started.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
植物病原菌にマイコウイルスが感染すると、宿主菌の病原性を弱めたり（弱毒化）、逆に強めたり（強毒化）する性質が付与されることがある。本研究において、研究代表者らはイネいもち病菌マイコウイルス(MoCV1-A)とAlternaria alternata菌マイコウイルス(AaCV1)由来で遺伝子配列情報だけでは機能が未知であるタンパク質の生物的活性を、パン酵母異種発現系を利用することにより、顕在化し得る評価系を改良し確立できた。
