The 5' noncoding region and virulence of poliovirus vaccine strains
Abstract
All three live, attenuated vaccine strains of poliovirus contain important attenuation determinants in a short conserved sequence in the 5' noncoding region. Evidence suggests these act by weakening a secondary-structural element critical for the unusual mechanism of translational initiation of picornaviruses, in which ribosomes bind directly to a site far downstream of the 5' end. Understanding the molecular basis of attenuation may allow novel vaccine strains to be designed.
