| Abstract | The positive single-stranded RNA genome of the Coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) contains a 5′ untranslated region (UTR) which hosts the internal ribosome entry site (IRES) element that governs cap-independent translation initiation and a polyadenylated 3′ UTR which is required for stimulating the IRES activity. Viral RNA genomes could circularize to regulate initiation of translation and RNA synthesis at 5′ and 3′ ends. Interactions could either take place by direct RNA–RNA contacts, through cellular protein bridges mediating RNA circularization or both. Accordingly, we aimed to assess the nature of molecular interactions between these two regions and to evaluate cellular factors required for mRNA 3′ end-mediated stimulation of CVB3 IRES-driven translation. By gel shift assays, we have showed that combining, in vitro, 5′ and 3′ UTR fragments had no discernible effect on the structures of RNAs, arguing against the presence of specific canonical RNA–RNA cyclization sequences between these two regions. Competitive UV crosslinking assays using BHK-21 cell extract showed common cellular proteins eIF3b, PTB, and La binding to both 5′- and 3′ end RNAs. PCBP 1–2 and PABP were shown to bind, respectively, to 5′ and 3′ UTR probes. Taking together, these data suggest that CVB3 5′–3′ end bridging occurs through 5′ UTR–protein–protein–3′ UTR interactions and not through RNA–RNA direct contact. The dual involvement of the 3′ and 5′ UTRs in controlling viral translation and RNA synthesis highlights the relevance of these regions in the infectious virus life cycle, making them suitable candidates for targeted CVB3 antiviral therapy. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
