Zika viruses encode multiple upstream open reading frames in the 5′ viral region with a role in neurotropism
2017-03-02
Abstract excerpt
Zika virus (ZIKV) is an emerging mosquito-borne flavivirus recently associated with congenital diseases and neurological complications. As for all flaviviruses, the ZIKV RNA genome is expected to encode a single polyprotein with all the enzymatic activities required for viral replication. Here, we report the discovery of multiple non-canonical open reading frames (ORFs) identified by ribosome profiling. In both ma...
