Archaic translation initiation factor eIF5B supports KSHV late lytic replication and viral oncogenesis by mimicking a hypoxic cellular landscape

Christian McDonald, Omayra Méndez-Solís, Yuan-De Tan…·Noula Shembade

This paper shows that KSHV uses eIF5B to mimic hypoxia and support viral replication and oncogenesis by altering translation initiation.

Nucleolar Pol II interactome reveals TBPL1, PAF1, and Pol I at intergenic rDNA drive rRNA biogenesis

Negin Khosraviani, V. Talya Yerlici, Jonathan R. St‐Germain…·Karim Mekhail

The paper identifies TBPL1 and PAF1 as regulators of Pol II at the intergenic spacer (IGS) of rDNA, showing their role in controlling Pol I activity and maintaining nucleolar structure and rRNA biogenesis.
