Research over the past two decades has elucidated the pathways for mRNA decay in Escherichia coli and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The study of these model organisms has given us a general overview of mRNA decay in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Although the two pathways are largely divergent, some c

Two simpli"ed kinetic proofreading scanning (KPS) models were proposed to describe the 5 cap and 3 poly(A) tail dependency of eukaryotic translation initiation. In Model I, the initiation factor complex starts scanning and unwinding the secondary structure of the 5 untranslated region (UTR) from the

## Abstract Enterovirus (EV) infection has been shown to cause a marked shutoff of host protein synthesis, an event mainly achieved through the cleavages of eukaryotic translation initiation factors eIF4GI and eIF4GII that are mediated by viral 2A protease (2A^pro^). Using fluorescence resonance en
