Translation start site selection in eukaryotes is influenced by context nucleotides flanking the AUG codon and by levels of the eukaryotic translation initiation factors eIF1 and eIF5. In a search of
A key step in gene expression is the recognition of the stop codon to terminate translation at the correct position. However, it has been observed that ribosomes can misintrepret the stop codon and co
Comparison of ribosome profiles. Ribosome profiles for Saccharomyces cerevisiae grown in rich media and under starvation conditions are presented. A) and B) are two genes that have verified IRESs. C)
