5′ UTR m6A Promotes Cap-Independent Translation
Protein translation typically begins with the recruitment of the 43S ribosomal complex to the 5' cap of mRNAs by a cap-binding complex. However, some transcripts are translated in a cap-independent manner through poorly understood mechanisms. Here, we show that mRNAs containing N(6)-methyladenosine (m(6)A) in their 5' UTR can be translated in a cap-independent manner. A single 5' UTR m(6)A dire...
متن کاملCap-independent translation through the p27 5′-UTR
Several recent publications have explored cap-independent translation through an internal ribosome entry site (IRES) in the 5'-UTR of the mRNA encoding the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p27. The major experimental tool used in these reports was the use of bicistronic reporter constructs in which the 5'-UTR was inserted between the upstream and downstream cistrons. None of these reports has ...
متن کاملCap-Independent Translation in Hematological Malignancies
Hematological malignancies are a heterogeneous group of diseases deriving from blood cells progenitors. Although many genes involved in blood cancers contain internal ribosome entry sites (IRESes), there has been only few studies focusing on the role of cap-independent translation in leukemia and lymphomas. Expression of IRES trans-acting factors can also be altered, and interestingly, BCL-ABL1...
متن کاملCap-independent translation of plant viral RNAs.
The RNAs of many plant viruses lack a 5' cap and must be translated by a cap-independent mechanism. Here, we discuss the remarkably diverse cap-independent translation elements that have been identified in members of the Potyviridae, Luteoviridae, and Tombusviridae families, and genus Tobamovirus. Many other plant viruses have uncapped RNAs but their translation control elements are uncharacter...
متن کاملCap-independent translation initiation in Xenopus oocytes.
Eukaryotic cellular mRNAs contain a cap at their 5'-ends, but some viral and cellular mRNAs bypass the cap-dependent mechanism of translation initiation in favor of internal entry of ribosomes at specific RNA sequences. Cap-dependent initiation requires intact initiation factor eIF4G (formerly eIF-4gamma, eIF-4Fgamma or p220), whereas internal initiation can proceed with eIF4G cleaved by picorn...
