Diversity of coding strategies in influenza viruses

R A Lamb et al. Trends Genet. 1991 Aug.

Abstract

Influenza viruses have exploited a variety of strategies to increase their genome coding capacities. These include unspliced, spliced, alternatively spliced and bicistronic mRNAs, translation from overlapping reading frames and a coupled stop-start translation of tandem cistrons.
