Eucaryotic Initiation Factor 4b of Wheat Germ Binds to the Translation Initiation Region of Satellite Tobacco Necrosis Virus Ribonucleic Acid (Rna)
… binds the intact, monocistronic, uncapped mRNA, STNV RNA, in nitrocellulose filter mediated binding assays with a K(,d) = 1 x 10('-7)M. EIF4B also binds the 5'-terminal 52 nucleotides of STNV {5'- ('32)P}RNA (i.e., the translation initiation site of STNV RNA) with the same efficiency as intact …

Evaluation of translation initiation features of satellite tobacco necrosis virus RNA
Satellite tobacco necrosis virus RNA (STNV RNA) is an unusual mRNA that is efficiently translated in the absence of a 5$\sp\prime$-terminal cap structure and initiator AUG codon. The translational properties, in wheat germ in vitro translation system, of transcript STNV RNAs (tSTNV RNAs), with …

The Mechanism of Cap-Independent Initiation of Translation of Satellite Tobacco Necrosis Virus RNA
Satellite Tobacco Necrosis Virus RNA (STNV RNA) is an efficient, eukaryotic mRNA lacking a 5$\sp\prime$-terminal cap group or 5$\sp\prime$-terminal covalently-linked protein. Addition of a 5$\sp\prime$-terminal cap group does not enhance the translation of STNV RNA. This suggests that STNV RNA …

The translation initiation site of satellite tobacco necrosis virus RNA does not require a start codon
… G}$XXAUGG). Satellite Tobacco Necrosis Virus (STNV RNA) and the small component RNA of Alfalfa Mosaic Virus (AMV-4 RNA) are unique viral RNAs in that they are efficiently translated in the absence, or after removal of, 5$\sp\prime$-terminal m$\sp7$G(5$\sp\prime$)ppp(5$\sp\prime$)N groups. This …

Characterization of features of the initiation of translation of satellite tobacco necrosis virus RNA
… translation of Satellite Tobacco Necrosis Virus (STNV) RNA has been shown to initiate efficiently in the absence of a cap structure and in the absence of an AUG initiation codon. These unusual characteristics of STNV RNA were shown to reside in the 5$\sp\prime$-untranslated region by replacing …

Initiation of Translation of Eukaryotic Messenger-Rna at a Unique Site Lacking an AUG Codon
… The RNA from satellite tobacco necrosis virus (STNV RNA) is unusual in that it contains no cap structure but functions as an efficient eukaryotic mRNA. This suggests that STNV RNA contains features involved in the initiation of translation of eukaryotic mRNA in addition to those of the scanning …

Features of the Initiation of Translation of Two Plant Viral Messenger-Rnas
… radioiodinated satellite tobacco necrosis virus (STNV) RNA to form initiation complexes that protect specific regions of the RNA from attack by ribonucleases. Wheat germ 80S ribosomes protect a "limit" region 19-52 nucleotides from the 5'-terminus. Wheat germ 40S ribosomes protect a "limit" region …

Architecture and assembly of maize streak virus: insights from 3D electron microscopy
… (CPs) of Satellite tobacco necrosis virus (STNV) as a structural template. Correlation-based fitting of icosahedral and geminate atomic models that varied in geometric arrangement of MSV CPs allowed the geometric parameters of the bipartite capsid to be determined. Fitting ofMSV CPs into the …

Gene Expression Control for Synthetic Patterning of Bacterial Populations and Plants
The development of shape in multicellular organisms has intrigued human minds for millenia. Empowered by modern genetic techniques, molecular biologists are now striving to not only dissect developmental processes, but to exploit their modularity for the design of custom living systems used in …
