Rice tungro bacilliform virus open reading frames II and III are translated from polycistronic pregenomic RNA by leaky scanning

Abstract

Posttranscriptional components of the gene expression mechanism of rice tungro bacilliform virus (RTBV) were studied in transiently transfected protoplasts. RTBV translates several open reading frames from a polycistronic mRNA by leaky scanning. This mechanism is supported by the particular sequence features of the corresponding genome region and does not require a virus-encoded transactivator.
