Abstract excerpt
We identified a mutation in the 60S ribosomal protein L33A (rpl33a-G76R) that elicits derepression of GCN4 translation (Gcd- phenotype) by allowing scanning preinitiation complexes to bypass inhibitory upstream open reading frame 4 (uORF4) independently of prior uORF1 translation and reinitiation. At 37 degrees C, rpl33a-G76R confers defects in 60S biogenesis comparable to those produced by the deletion of RPL33A...
