The domains H-L of these IRESs specifically interact with the cellular translation initiation factors eIF4G/eIF4A through their essential JK domain. However, the JK domain is not sufficient for IRES activity, which also strictly requires the preceding domain I of unknown function. To identify interactions that drive ribosomal attachment to eIF4G/eIF4A-bound Type 2 IRESs, we determined the cryo-EM structure of 48S initiation complexes formed on the EMCV IRES. The apical cloverleaf of domain I contacts ribosomal proteins uS13 and uS19 via its subdomain Id, whereas the essential GNRA tetraloop in subdomain Ic interacts with the TψC domain of initiator tRNA. The IRES-tRNA interaction also provides a mechanism for release of the IRES after eIF2 is replaced by eIF5B during subunit joining to allow attachment of 60S subunits. Functional assays supported the exceptional role of these interactions for initiation on this IRES. The strong conservation of the apex of domain I amongst Type 2 IRESs suggests that the reported interactions provide a common general mechanism of ribosomal attachment on them all. |
