β¦ Synopsis
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 for virus-mediated transfer and direct DNA transfer are described.

## Abstract ## Background In the past three decades, much advancement has been made in Ξ³βretroviral vector mediated gene transfer. One widely used vector design is based on the MFG vector, which uses the Moloney murine leukemia virus (MoMLV) transcriptional unit with extended packaging signals and
## BACKGROUND. When resting cells are stimulated by growth factors, an increase in protein synthesis follows that depends in part on two key eukaryotic translation initiation factors, 4E and 2β£ (eIF-4E and eIF-2β£, respectively). In the normal cell, expression and activity of both factors are incre
## Abstract While traditional metabolic engineering generally relies on the augmentation of specific genes and pathways in order to increase the yield of target proteins, the advent of RNA interference (RNAi) as a biological tool has given metabolic engineers another tool capable of rationally alte
