Indicates host factors suffice for picornavirus IRES activity; leaves open identification of specific mediators.
RNA-protein interactions involving the 5' noncoding regions of picornaviruses are conserved across different viral species, suggesting a basic function in cap-independent translation.
Dildine et al. (1992) studied this question. Mutational analysis of 5' NCR stem-loop structures was evaluated on RNA-protein interactions between 5' NCR and cellular proteins. RNA-protein interactions between the 5' noncoding region of picornaviruses and cellular proteins are conserved among enteroviruses and cardioviruses, requiring specific stem-loop structures.
