Eukaryotic Initiation Complex Formation
Two distinct pathways have been elucidated which lead to the formation of an AUG-dependent initiation complex. One pathway involves the use of initiation factor Ml (IF-Ml) to promote AUG-dependent binding of the initiator tRNA to the 40 S subunit, followed by joining of the 60 S subunit in the presence of IF-MBA, IF-MBB, and GTP. The second pathway involves the IF-MP-directed binding of initiat...
متن کاملPrinciples of start codon recognition in eukaryotic translation initiation
Selection of the correct start codon during initiation of translation on the ribosome is a key event in protein synthesis. In eukaryotic initiation, several factors have to function in concert to ensure that the initiator tRNA finds the cognate AUG start codon during mRNA scanning. The two initiation factors eIF1 and eIF1A are known to provide important functions for the initiation process and ...
متن کاملDistinct functions of eukaryotic translation initiation factors eIF1A and eIF3 in the formation of the 40 S ribosomal preinitiation complex.
We have used an in vitro translation initiation assay to investigate the requirements for the efficient transfer of Met-tRNAf (as Met-tRNAf.eIF2.GTP ternary complex) to 40 S ribosomal subunits in the absence of mRNA (or an AUG codon) to form the 40 S preinitiation complex. We observed that the 17-kDa initiation factor eIF1A is necessary and sufficient to mediate nearly quantitative transfer of ...
متن کاملStructural Changes Enable Start Codon Recognition by the Eukaryotic Translation Initiation Complex
During eukaryotic translation initiation, initiator tRNA does not insert fully into the P decoding site on the 40S ribosomal subunit. This conformation (POUT) is compatible with scanning mRNA for the AUG start codon. Base pairing with AUG is thought to promote isomerization to a more stable conformation (PIN) that arrests scanning and promotes dissociation of eIF1 from the 40S subunit. Here, we...
متن کاملFormation and release of eukaryotic initiation factor 2 X GDP complex during eukaryotic ribosomal polypeptide chain initiation complex formation.
The formation and release of an eukaryotic initiation factor (eIF)-2 X GDP binary complex during eIF-5-mediated assembly of an 80 S ribosomal polypeptide chain initiation complex have been studied by sucrose gradient centrifugation analysis. Isolated 40 S initiation complex reacts with eIF-5 and 60 S ribosomal subunits to form an 80 S ribosomal initiation complex with concomitant hydrolysis of ...
