CBPC defect impairs host mRNA translation in poliovirus infection; leaves open specific polypeptide targets for further mechanistic studies.
Poliovirus infection alters the cap-binding protein complex by degrading its 220-kDa component, shifting translation from capped host mRNAs to uncapped viral mRNAs.
Buckley et al. (1987) studied Poliovirus infection. Poliovirus infection vs. Uninfected HeLa cells was evaluated on Structural and functional alterations of the cap-binding protein complex (CBPC). Poliovirus infection of HeLa cells caused major structural alterations in the cap-binding protein complex, including loss of the 220-kDa component, stimulating translation of uncapped viral mRNA.
