Structural differences in translation initiation between pathogenic trypanosomatids and their mammalian hosts
2019-10-16
Abstract excerpt
<h4>SUMMARY</h4> Canonical mRNA translation in eukaryotes begins with the formation of the 43S pre-initiation complex (PIC). Its assembly requires the binding of several eukaryotic initiation factors (eIF 1, 1A, 2, 3 and 5), Met-tRNA i Met and the small ribosomal subunit (40S). Compared to their mammalian hosts, trypanosomatids present significant structural differences in their 40S suggesting substantial variab...
