Expression of the VP2 Protein of Murine Norovirus by a Translation Termination-Reinitiation Strategy
Figure 8
Comparison of caliciviral termination-reinitiation signals and 5′ flanking regions.
The termination-reinitiation signal of influenza BM2 is also shown, as is a putative signal in the cellular gene glutamic acid decarboxylase [33]. Confirmed and potential Motif 1 sequences are highlighted in pink and the stop-start window in blue. Potential base-pairing interactions flanking Motif 1 [18] are indicated in grey (or underlined in the case of the glutamic acid decarboxylase gene). Within the murine noroviruses, in reference to EU004666, base changes are highlighted in green. Abbreviations used: EBHSV, European brown hare syndrome virus; RHDV, rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus; VESV, vesicular exanthema of swine virus; FCV, feline calicivirus; SMSV, San Miguel sealion virus.
