Leveraging genome-wide datasets to quantify the functional role of the anti-Shine–Dalgarno sequence in regulating translation efficiency [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2017
Studies dating back to the 1970s established that sequence complementarity between the anti-Shine–Dalgarno (aSD) sequence on prokaryotic ribosomes and the 5′ untranslated region of mRNAs helps to facilitate translation initiation. The optimal location of

Mechanisms of action of cytoplasmic microRNAs. Part 5. MicroRNA-mediated silencing caused during translation initiation and post-initiation

open access: yesZdorovʹe Rebenka, 2022
The scientific review considers the mechanisms of action of cytoplasmic microRNAs, namely miRNA-mediated silencing, which is caused during the initiation and post-initiation period of translation.

Translation initiation of viral mRNAs [PDF]

open access: yesReviews in Medical Virology, 2010
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.

Machine learning predicts translation initiation sites in neurologic diseases with nucleotide repeat expansions.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
A number of neurologic diseases associated with expanded nucleotide repeats, including an inherited form of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, have an unconventional form of translation called repeat-associated non-AUG (RAN) translation.

The Helix-Loop-Helix motif of human EIF3A regulates translation of proliferative cellular mRNAs.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2023
Improper regulation of translation initiation, a vital checkpoint of protein synthesis in the cell, has been linked to a number of cancers. Overexpression of protein subunits of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3 (eIF3) is associated with ...

Non-AUG translation initiation in mammals

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2022
Recent proteogenomic studies revealed extensive translation outside of annotated protein coding regions, such as non-coding RNAs and untranslated regions of mRNAs. This non-canonical translation is largely due to start codon plurality within the same RNA.

A translation initiation element specific to mRNAs with very short 5'UTR that also regulates transcription. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2008
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]

open access: yes, 2013
Translation is divided into initiation, elongation, termination and ribosome recycling. Earlier work implicated several eukaryotic initiation factors (eIFs) in ribosomal recycling in vitro.

Activation of GCN2 kinase by ribosome stalling links translation elongation with translation initiation

open access: yeseLife, 2016
Ribosome stalling during translation has recently been shown to cause neurodegeneration, yet the signaling pathways triggered by stalled elongation complexes are unknown.

Translation elongation can control translation initiation on eukaryotic mRNAs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
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.
