Canonical cap-dependent translation initiation requires a large number of, protein factors that act in a stepwise assembly process. In contrast, internal ribosomal entry sites (IRESs) are cis-acting RNAs that in some, cases completely supplant these factors by recruiting and activating the, ribosome using a single structured RNA. Here we present the crystal, structures of the ribosome-binding domain from a Dicistroviridae, intergenic region IRES at 3.1 angstrom resolution, providing a view of the, prefolded architecture of an all-RNA translation initiation apparatus., Docking of the structure into cryo-electron microscopy reconstructions of, an IRES-ribosome complex suggests a model for ribosome manipulation by a, dynamic IRES RNA.
