The Genomic 3′ UTR of Flaviviruses Is a Translation Initiation Enhancer
3 Aug 2022
Abstract excerpt
is a large group of positive, single-stranded RNA viruses that includes several important human pathogens, such as West Nile, Dengue and Zika virus. The genome of flaviviruses bears a type 1 cap structure at its 5' end, needed for the main translation initiation mechanism. Several members of the genus also use a cap-independent translation mechanism. The present work provides evidence that the WNV 5' end also...
