Abstract excerpt
The two enteroviral proteinases, 2A proteinase (2A(pro)) and 3C proteinase (3C(pro)), induce host cell translation shutoff in enterovirus-infected cells by cleaving canonical translation initiation factors. Cleavage of poly(A)-binding protein (PABP) by 3C(pro) has been shown to be a necessary component for host translation shutoff. Here we show that 3C(pro) inhibits cap-independent translation mediated by the...
