IRES Mechanisms of Internal Initiation IRES
Cap-Independent Translation Initiation • Cellular • Cellular stress: viral infection (PKR), apoptosis, hypoxia • Normal cellular processes: G2/M phase cell cycle • Viral • Genomes: Picornaviruses, Hepatitis C Virus, Cricket paralysis virus • Specific viral messages: HIV, Herpes virus (…. and the list is still growing!)
Cellular IRESes: How do they recruit 40S? • Widely assumed that the Secondary and tertiary Structure allow for interactions with translational machinery (ITAF,eIFs, 40S) • No common Structure • Composed of multiple short modules • Generally 150-300 nts long, exception: 9nt repeated element.

Summary • Mechanisms of initiation: • Cap-dependent translation • Cap-independent translation: Internal ribosome entry sites • Regulation of initiation: • Global • eIF2 alpha phosphorylation • 4E-BPs • Cleavage of eIF4G • Message specific • GCN4 • IRE/IRP • SXL • miRNA (microRNA)
