Identification and Characterization of 5′ Untranslated Regions (5′UTRs) in Zymomonas mobilis as Regulatory Biological Parts [PDF]
Regulatory RNA regions within a transcript, particularly in the 5′ untranslated region (5′UTR), have been shown in a variety of organisms to control the expression levels of these mRNAs in response to various metabolites or environmental conditions ...

Differences in 5'untranslated regions highlight the importance of translational regulation of dosage sensitive genes [PDF]
Background Untranslated regions (UTRs) are important mediators of post-transcriptional regulation. The length of UTRs and the composition of regulatory elements within them are known to vary substantially across genes, but little is known about the ...

eIF3 and Its mRNA-Entry-Channel Arm Contribute to the Recruitment of mRNAs With Long 5′-Untranslated Regions [PDF]
Translation initiation in eukaryotes is a multi-step pathway and the most regulated phase of translation. Eukaryotic initiation factor 3 (eIF3) is the largest and most complex of the translation initiation factors, and it contributes to events throughout

The genomic features that affect the lengths of 5’ untranslated regions in multicellular eukaryotes [PDF]
Background The lengths of 5’UTRs of multicellular eukaryotes have been suggested to be subject to stochastic changes, with upstream start codons (uAUGs) as the major constraint to suppress 5’UTR elongation.

RNP interfaces as regulatory “active sites”: a repurposing strategy for small molecules targeting viral 5′-untranslated regions [PDF]
RNA-protein (RNP) complexes regulate nearly every stage of gene expression and play central roles in viral infection and human disease. Despite decades of research, relatively few small molecules (SMs) have been shown to modulate RNP assemblies with ...
