Abstract excerpt
The genetic information contained within the RNA genome of picornaviruses is expressed as a single large open reading frame; processing of the primary translation product begins while translation is still in progress. In rhinoviruses and enteroviruses, two picornavirus genera, the virally encoded proteinase 2A begins the processing cascade, cleaving between the C-terminus of VP1 and its own N-terminus. The...
