Modifications on Translation Initiation [PDF]
Two studies by Meyer et al. and Wang et al. demonstrate a role for m(6)A modification of mRNA in stimulating translation initiation. These findings add to the growing number of diverse mechanisms for translation initiation in eukaryotes.

Unnatural Translation Initiation [PDF]
Protein translation in nature always begins with an initiator transfer RNA (tRNA) carrying the amino acid methionine. This was circumvented in vitro with a reconstituted translation system utilizing initiator tRNA synthetically mischarged with the other natural amino acids.

Translation initiation of viral mRNAs [PDF]
AbstractViruses depend on cells for their replication but have evolved mechanisms to achieve this in an efficient and, in some instances, a cell‐type‐specific manner. The expression of viral proteins is frequently subject to translational control. The dominant target of such control is the initiation step of protein synthesis.

Translation initiation in cancer at a glance [PDF]
ABSTRACT Cell division, differentiation and function are largely dependent on accurate proteome composition and regulated gene expression. To control this, protein synthesis is an intricate process governed by upstream signalling pathways.

A translation initiation element specific to mRNAs with very short 5'UTR that also regulates transcription. [PDF]
Transcription is controlled by cis regulatory elements, which if localized downstream to the transcriptional start site (TSS), in the 5'UTR, could influence translation as well.

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.

A comprehensive analysis of the importance of translation initiation factors for Haloferax volcanii applying deletion and conditional depletion mutants [PDF]
Translation is an important step in gene expression. The initiation of translation is phylogenetically diverse, since currently five different initiation mechanisms are known.

MATH-BTB proteins are known to act as substrate-specific adaptors of CUL3-based E3 ligases in the ubiquitin proteasome pathway. Their BTB domain binds to CUL3 scaffold proteins and the less conserved MATH domain targets a highly diverse collection of ...

Translation elongation can control translation initiation on eukaryotic mRNAs [PDF]
Synonymous codons encode the same amino acid, but differ in other biophysical properties. The evolutionary selection of codons whose properties are optimal for a cell generates the phenomenon of codon bias.
