Expression and Purification of Recombinant Mouse Interleukin-4 and -6 from Transgenic Rice Seeds.

abstract：:Translation initiation of Coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) RNA is directed by an internal ribosome entry site (IRES) within the 5' untranslated region. Host cell factors involved in this process include some canonical translation factors and additional RNA-binding proteins. We have, previously, described that the Sabin3-like ...
