Viruses have evolved elaborate mechanisms to hijack the host mRNA translation machinery direct viral protein synthesis. Picornaviruses, whose RNA genomes lack a cap structure, inhibit cap-dependent translation, and utilize an internal ribosome entry site (IRES) in 5′-UTR recruit 40S ribosomal subunit. IRES activity is stimulated by set of proteins termed trans-acting factors (ITAFs). The cellular ITAF 45 (also known as PA2G4 EBP1) was identified essential for foot-and-mouth disease virus...
