| Name | viral translational termination-reinitiation |
| ID | GO_0075525 |
| collection_id | Biological process |
| Exact synonym | termination reinitiation involved in viral translation, viral translation involving termination re-initiation, viral translation involving termination-reinitiation, viral translation involving translational stop-start |
| Description | A process which occurs as part of viral mRNA translation which allows expression of a downstream open reading frame (ORF) in a dicistronic mRNA. In this process, ribosomes translate the upstream ORF but following termination, a proportion of 40S subunits remain tethered to the mRNA and go on to re-initiate translation at the start codon of the downstream ORF. |
| Comment | This term is intended to annotate gene products involved in the process of viral translational termination-reinitiation, not viral proteins produced by this translation process. |
