Influenza virus RNA: Translation into protein

Let’s resume our discussion of the influenza virus genome. Last time we established that there are eight negative-stranded RNAs within the influenza virion, each coding for one or two proteins. Now we’ll consider how proteins are made from these RNAs. Figure 1 shows influenza RNA segment 2, which encodes two proteins: PB1 and PB1-F2. The …
