    Abstract

    The influenza virus RNA polymerase synthesizes three types of RNA: genomic vRNA, anti-genomic cRNA and mRNA. Both vRNA and cRNA are bound by the viral RNA polymerase and nucleoprotein to form ribonucleoprotein complexes. Viral mRNAs are also proposed to be bound by the RNA polymerase to prevent their endonucleolytic cleavage, regulate the splicing of M1 mRNA, and facilitate translation. Here, we used standard immunoprecipitation, biochemical purification and RNA immunoprecipitation assays to investigate the association of viral and host factors with viral mRNA. We found that viral mRNA associates with the viral non-structural protein 1 (NS1), cellular poly(A)-binding protein 1 (PABP1), the 20 kDa subunit NCBP1 of the nuclear cap-binding complex (CBC), the RNA and export factor-binding protein REF/Aly and the translation initiation factor eIF4E. However, our data suggest that the RNA polymerase might not form part of the viral messenger ribonucleoprotein (mRNP) complex. We propose a model in which viral mRNAs, by associating with cellular cap-binding proteins, follow the pathways normally used by cellular mRNAs for splicing, nuclear export and translation.

      Related information

      • Related Citations
        Calculated set of PubMed citations closely related to the selected article(s) retrieved using a word weight algorithm. Related articles are displayed in ranked order from most to least relevant, with the “linked from” citation displayed first.
      • Gene
        Gene records that cite the current articles. Citations in Gene are added manually by NCBI or imported from outside public resources.
      • Gene (GeneRIF)
        Gene records that have the current articles as Reference into Function citations (GeneRIFs). NLM staff reviewing the literature while indexing MEDLINE add GeneRIFs manually.
      • HomoloGene
        HomoloGene clusters of homologous genes and sequences that cite the current articles. These are references on the Gene and sequence records in the HomoloGene entry.
      • Nucleotide
        Primary database (GenBank) nucleotide records reported in the current articles as well as Reference Sequences (RefSeqs) that include the articles as references.
