All foot and mouth disease virus serotypes initiate protein synthesis at two separate AUGs

Abstract: Translation of the foot and mouth disease virus genome in vitro and in vivo indicated that all seven serotypes initiate protein synthesis at two separate AUGs. Sequence analysis of the region surrounding these AUGs has shown that the efficiency with which the initiating AUG is recognized is dependent on the flanking nucleotides. However, in vitro, the major factor determining which AUG is used is the concentration of Mg2+.

“…In EMCV and TMEV (GDVII strain), this AUG triplet is the initiation codon and ribosomes bind directly to it without scanning (Kaminski et al 1990(Kaminski et al , 1994Pilipenko et al 1994). In FMDV, initiation occurs at this AUG triplet but also, more frequently, at the next downstream AUG triplet (Sangar et al 1987). Very little initiation occurs at the AUG at the 3Ј border of the poliovirus IRES and the initiation codon is ∼160 nucleotides downstream from it.…”

“…Each of them, as well as some of the processing intermediates, are involved in functions relevant to the virus life cycle in infected cells (reviewed in [25,181]). The L region contains two overlapping proteins Lab and Lb, that result from the translation initiation from each of the two functional AUGs of the polyprotein [23,214]. Lab and Lb catalyse their proteolytic excision from the polyprotein [228,235] and initiate the cleavage of eIF-4F, a component of the cap-binding protein complex [67], leading to the shutoff of host protein synthesis in virus-infected cells.…”

“…This could prevent efficient initiation at this AUG, forcing a fraction of the initiation complexes to start at the next AUG. Around AUG L, less basepairs can be formed, facilitating initiation at this AUG, as in EMC RNA. The SAT strains predominantly synthesize Lb [24]. In most of the FMDV serotypes basepairing at the two initiation codons is very similar.…”
