Abstract excerpt
ATP-binding cassette 50 (ABC50; also known as ABCF1) binds to eukaryotic initiation factor 2 (eIF2) and is required for efficient translation initiation. An essential step of this process is accurate recognition and selection of the initiation codon. It is widely accepted that the presence and movement of eIF1, eIF1A and eIF5 are key factors in modulating the stringency of start-site selection, which normally...
