Abstract: Translation of mRNAs through Internal Ribosome Entry Sites (IRESs) has emerged as a prominent mechanism of cellular and viral initiation. It supports cap-independent translation of select cellular genes under normal conditions, and in conditions when… read more here.

Abstract: Translation initiation of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) mRNA depends on an internal ribosome entry site (IRES) that encompasses most of the 5′UTR and includes nucleotides of the core coding region. This study shows that… read more here.
