An <i>in vitro</i> assay of MCTS1-DENR-dependent re-initiation and ribosome profiling uncover the activity of MCTS2 and distinct function of eIF2D
2024-06-05
Abstract excerpt
Ribosomes scanning from the mRNA 5′ cap to the start codon may initiate at upstream open reading frames (uORFs), decreasing protein biosynthesis. Termination at a uORF can lead to re-initiation, where the 40S subunit resumes scanning and initiates another translation event downstream. In mammals, the noncanonical translation factors MCTS1-DENR participate in re-initiation at specific uORFs, but knowledge of other...
