Poxvirus-encoded decapping enzymes promote selective translation of viral mRNAs.
Cellular decapping enzymes negatively regulate gene expression by removing the methylguanosine cap at the 5' end of eukaryotic mRNA, rendering mRNA susceptible to degradation and repressing mRNA translation. Vaccinia virus (VACV), the prototype poxvirus, encodes two decapping enzymes, D9 and D10, th...
