5’ UTR recruitment of eIF4GI or DAP5 drives cap-independent translation for a subset of human mRNAs
2018-11-16
Abstract excerpt
During unfavorable human cellular conditions ( e.g ., tumor hypoxia, viral infection, etc .), canonical, cap-dependent mRNA translation is suppressed. Nonetheless, a subset of physiologically important mRNAs ( e.g ., HIF-1α, FGF-9, and p53) is still translated by an unknown, cap-independent mechanism. Additionally, expression levels of eIF4G and its homolog, death associated protein 5 (DAP5), are elevated. Usin...
