Heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein (hnRNP) A1 is a nucleocytoplasmic shuttling protein that regulates gene expression through its action on mRNA metabolism and translation. The cytoplasmic redistribution of hnRNP A1 is a regulated process during viral infection and cellular stress. Here, we show that hnRNP A1 is an internal ribosome entry site (IRES) trans-acting factor that binds specifically to the 5' untranslated region of both the human rhinovirus-2 and the human apoptotic peptidase activating factor 1 (apaf-1) mRNAs, thereby regulating their translation. Furthermore, the cytoplasmic redistribution of hnRNP A1 after rhinovirus infection leads to enhanced rhinovirus IRES-mediated translation, whereas the cytoplasmic relocalization of hnRNP A1 after UVC irradiation limits the UVC-triggered translational activation of the apaf-1 IRES. Therefore, this study provides a direct demonstration that IRESs behave as translational enhancer elements regulated by specific trans-acting mRNA binding proteins in given physiological conditions. Our data highlight a new way to regulate protein synthesis in eukaryotes through the subcellular relocalization of a nuclear mRNA-binding protein.
