Abstract

In a recent Nature paper, Hashem et al. attempted to probe deeper into the elusive role of eIF3 in translation initiation of viruses with hepatitis C virus-like internal ribosome entry sites (IRESs), but instead uncovered a surprising role of these IRESs in displacing eIF3 from the 40S subunit, favoring viral translation.
