A 3D representation of a Cripavirus IRES. This is a view of the tertiary structure of the ribosome-bound cricket paralysis virus IRES RNA.[1]

The Cripavirus internal ribosome entry site (CrPV IRES) is an RNA element required for the production of capsid proteins through ribosome recruitment to an intergenic region IRES (IGR IRES).[1]
