Discovery of functional factorless internal ribosome entry site-like structures through virome mining.

All viruses must co-opt the host translational machinery for viral protein synthesis. The dicistrovirus intergenic region internal ribosome entry site (IGR-IRES) utilizes the most streamlined translation mechanism by adopting a triple pseudoknot structure that directly recruits and binds within the...
