The discovery of a novel, cap-independent mechanism of translation used by picornavirus mRNAs has led to new advances in the engineering of mammalian expression vectors. It is now possible to express several proteins in a coordinate fashion from a single mRNA. Improved expression vectors suitable fo
In eukaryotes, the synthesis of selenoproteins depends on an exogenous supply of selenium, required for synthesis of the novel amino acid, selenocysteine, and on the presence of a "selenium translation element" in the 3 ' untranslated region of mRNA. The selenium translation element is required to r
