| Abstract | Positive-strand RNA virus genomes are substrates for translation, RNA replication, and encapsidation. To identify host factors involved in these functions, we used the ability of brome mosaic virus (BMV) RNA to replicate in yeast. We report herein identification of a mutation in the essential yeast gene DED1 that inhibited BMV RNA replication but not yeast growth. DED1 encodes a DEAD (Asp-Glu-Ala-Asp)-box RNA helicase required for translation initiation of all yeast mRNAs. Inhibition of BMV RNA replication by the mutant DED1 allele (ded1-18) resulted from inhibited expression of viral polymerase-like protein 2a, encoded by BMV RNA2. Inhibition of RNA2 translation was selective, with no effect on general cellular translation or translation of BMV RNA1-encoded replication factor 1a, and was independent of p20, a cellular antagonist of DED1 function in translation. Inhibition of RNA2 translation in ded1-18 yeast required the RNA2 5' noncoding region (NCR), which also conferred a ded1-18-specific reduction in expression on a reporter gene mRNA. Comparison of the similar RNA1 and RNA2 5' NCRs identified a 31-nucleotide RNA2-specific region that was required for the ded1-18-specific RNA2 translation block and attenuated RNA2 translation in wild-type yeast. Further comparisons and RNA structure predictions suggest a modular arrangement of replication and translation signals in RNA1 and RNA2 5' NCRs that appears conserved among bromoviruses. The 5' attenuator and DED1 dependence of RNA2 suggest that, despite its divided genome, BMV regulates polymerase translation relative to other replication factors, just as many single-component RNA viruses use translational read-through and frameshift mechanisms to down-regulate polymerase. The results show that a DEAD-box helicase can selectively activate translation of a specific mRNA and may provide a paradigm for translational regulation by other members of the ubiquitous DEAD-box RNA helicase family. |

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.
