A bicistronic viral genome uses a compact type IV IRES near its 3′ end to express a transmembrane protein [PDF]

open access: yesCell Reports
Summary: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) and many other RNA viruses contain a type IV internal ribosome entry site (IRES) in their 5′ untranslated region (UTR). These IRES RNAs interact directly with the ribosome, enabling cap-independent translation initiation.

Enhancing Circular RNA Translation Efficiency Through Dual Internal Ribosome Entry Sites [PDF]

open access: yesBiology
Circular RNA (circRNA) has emerged as a promising vector for drug delivery because, unlike linear mRNA, it does not require costly chemical modifications and offers greater stability and sustained expression in cells.

Comparison of the Regulatory Effects of Host Factors on Viral Internal Ribosomal Entry Sites [PDF]

open access: yesVeterinary Sciences
Host factors play critical roles in viral IRES-mediated translation by modulating the efficiency and specificity of viral protein synthesis. In this study, we used small interfering RNA (siRNA) treatment to silence and plasmid-based expression to ...

Life cycle assessment of advanced building materials towards NZEBs [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2022
Buildings are responsible for 40% of energy consumption annually in Europe, along with the respective greenhouse gas emissions. To mitigate these impacts, intensive research is ongoing in the sector of the Nearly Zero-Energy Buildings (NZEBs).

Intensive Agriculture as Climate Change Adaptation? Economic and Environmental Tradeoffs in Securing Rural Livelihoods in Tanzanian River Basins

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2021
Tanzania is one of the East African countries most vulnerable to climate change impacts. Droughts and floods in 2015–16 had devastating effects on food production, crop failures and livestock deaths reaching record levels.
