Abstract excerpt
The control of mRNA degradation and translation are important for the regulation of gene expression. mRNA degradation is often initiated by deadenylation, which leads to decapping and 5'-3' decay. In the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisae, decapping is promoted by the Dhh1 and Pat1 proteins, which appear to both inhibit translation initiation and promote decapping. To understand the function of these factors,...
