Translation inhibitory elements from Hoxa3 and Hoxa11 mRNAs use uORFs for translation inhibition
eLife, 2021 During embryogenesis, Hox mRNA translation is tightly regulated by a sophisticated molecular mechanism that combines two RNA regulons located in their 5’UTR. First, an internal ribosome entry site (IRES) enables cap-independent translation.

Disome-seq reveals widespread ribosome collisions that promote cotranslational protein folding
Genome Biology, 2021 Background The folding of proteins is challenging in the highly crowded and sticky environment of a cell. Regulation of translation elongation may play a crucial role in ensuring the correct folding of proteins.

The ribosome assembly gene network is controlled by the feedback regulation of transcription elongation [PDF]
, 2017 Ribosome assembly requires the concerted expression of hundreds of genes, which are transcribed by all three nuclear RNA polymerases. Transcription elongation involves dynamic interactions between RNA polymerases and chromatin.

Stochastic kinetics of ribosomes: single motor properties and collective behavior [PDF]
, 2009 Synthesis of protein molecules in a cell are carried out by ribosomes. A ribosome can be regarded as a molecular motor which utilizes the input chemical energy to move on a messenger RNA (mRNA) track that also serves as a template for the polymerization ...

Bacterial riboproteogenomics : the era of N-terminal proteoform existence revealed [PDF]
, 2020 With the rapid increase in the number of sequenced prokaryotic genomes, relying on automated gene annotation became a necessity. Multiple lines of evidence, however, suggest that current bacterial genome annotations may contain inconsistencies and are ...

eLife, 2022 Rapid and accurate mRNA translation requires efficient codon-dependent delivery of the correct aminoacyl-tRNA (aa-tRNA) to the ribosomal A site. In mammals, this fidelity-determining reaction is facilitated by the GTPase elongation factor-1 alpha (eEF1A),

Hepatitis C virus 3'UTR regulates viral translation through direct interactions with the host translation machinery. [PDF]
, 2013 The 3' untranslated region (3'UTR) of hepatitis C virus (HCV) messenger RNA stimulates viral translation by an undetermined mechanism. We identified a high affinity interaction, conserved among different HCV genotypes, between the HCV 3'UTR and the host ...
