Abstract excerpt
The "ribosome scanning model" for translational initiation predicts that eukaryotic mRNAs should, as a rule, be monocistronic. However, cases have recently been described of eukaryotic mRNAs producing more than one protein through alternative translational initiation at several different AUG codons. The present work reports the occurrence of multiple translational start sites on the mRNA of the Neurospora crassa...
