Preferential Translation of Vesicular Stomatitis Virus mRNAs Is Conferred by Transcription from the Viral Genome
13 Nov 2006
Abstract excerpt
Host protein synthesis is inhibited in cells infected with vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV). It has been proposed that viral mRNAs are subjected to the same inhibition but are predominantly translated because of their abundance. To compare translation efficiencies of viral and host mRNAs during infection, we used an enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) reporter expressed from a recombinant virus or from the...
