Abstract
Picornaviruses have evolved elaborate strategies to subvert host translation. In this issue of Cell Host and Microbe, Ho etal. (2011) report that enterovirus infection induces the synthesis of a transcription factor that enhances the synthesis of microRNA-141, which suppresses translation of the cap-binding protein, eIF4E, mRNA to inhibit cap-dependent translation.
