<i>Opium Poppy Mosaic Virus</i> Has an Xrn-Resistant, Translated Subgenomic RNA and a BTE 3′ CITE
Muhammad Ilyas, Zhiyou Du, Anne E. Simon
Abstract
We also characterized the OPMV BTE structure, a 3' cap-independent translation enhancer (3' CITE). Comparisons of 13 BTEs with the OPMV BTE revealed additional stretches of sequence similarity beyond the 17-nt signature sequence, as well as conserved structural features not previously recognized in these 3' CITEs.
