The universally conserved eukaryotic initiation factor (eIF) 5B, a translational GTPase, is essential for canonical translation initiation. It is also required for initiation facilitated by the internal ribosomal entry site (IRES) of hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA. eIF5B promotes joining of 60S ribosomal subunits to 40S ribosomal subunits bound by initiator tRNA (Met-tRNAiMet). However, the exact molecular mechanism by which eIF5B acts has not been established. Here we present cryo-EM reconstructions of the mammalian 80S-HCV-IRES-Met-tRNAiMet-eIF5B-GMPPNP complex. We obtained two substates distinguished by the rotational state of the ribosomal subunits and the configuration of initiator tRNA in the peptidyl (P) site. Accordingly, a combination of conformational changes in the 80S ribosome and in initiator tRNA facilitates binding of the Met-tRNAiMet to the 60S P site and redefines the role of eIF5B as a tRNA-reorientation factor.
