Poly(A)-Binding Protein Regulates the Efficiency of Translation Termination
Summary: Multiple factors influence translation termination efficiency, including nonsense codon identity and immediate context. To determine whether the relative position of a nonsense codon within an open reading frame (ORF) influences termination ...

Topical gentamicin 0.1% promotes collagen 7 expression in recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa
Background: Currently, there is no cure for epidermolysis bullosa (EB) but few studies have explored the role of aminoglycosides in promoting collagen 7 expression in recessive dystrophic EB (RDEB).

Translation initiation factor eIF3 promotes programmed stop codon readthrough. [PDF]
Programmed stop codon readthrough is a post-transcription regulatory mechanism specifically increasing proteome diversity by creating a pool of C-terminally extended proteins.

Codon usage biases are found in all genomes and influence protein expression levels. The codon usage effect on protein expression was thought to be mainly due to its impact on translation.

Posttranscriptional gene regulation by spatial rearrangement of the 3' untranslated region. [PDF]
Translation termination at premature termination codons (PTCs) triggers degradation of the aberrant mRNA, but the mechanism by which a termination event is defined as premature is still unclear.

Stop codon readthrough (SCR) occurs when the ribosome miscodes at a stop codon. Such readthrough events can be therapeutically desirable when a premature termination codon (PTC) is found in a critical gene.

Translation Initiation Factors eIF3 and HCR1 Control Translation Termination and Stop Codon Read-Through in Yeast Cells [PDF]
Translation is divided into initiation, elongation, termination and ribosome recycling. Earlier work implicated several eukaryotic initiation factors (eIFs) in ribosomal recycling in vitro.

Rous Sarcoma Virus RNA Stability Element Inhibits Deadenylation of mRNAs with Long 3′UTRs
All retroviruses use their full-length primary transcript as the major mRNA for Group-specific antigen (Gag) capsid proteins. This results in a long 3′ untranslated region (UTR) downstream of the termination codon. In the case of Rous sarcoma virus (RSV),

Decoding accuracy in eRF1 mutants and its correlation with pleiotropic quantitative traits in yeast [PDF]
Translation termination in eukaryotes typically requires the decoding of one of three stop codons UAA, UAG or UGA by the eukaryotic release factor eRF1.
