RNA virus translation• How do the untranslated regions (UTR) of RNA
viruses enhance translation?

TYMV translation
• The TLS of TYMV mimics a tRNA.

The Question
• Does the 3’ UTR of DuMV enhance translation?
44 nt 59 nt 145 nt
![Page 10: The Role of the 3’ UTR of Dulcamara mottle virus RNA in Translation](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062315/56815d8e550346895dcba134/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The Hypothesis
• The combination of the 59 nt and 145 nt sequences are responsible for translational enhancement.

Methodology
• Six plasmid constructs were created with the luciferase gene.
• The plasmids will be tested to see luciferase expression.
