Selection of start codon during mRNA scanning in eukaryotic translation initiation | Communications Biology - Nature.com

Molecular simulations of start codon selection by the eukaryotic ribosome during mRNA scanning provide further insight into high speed of scanning and how initiation factors contribute toward codon-anticodon-ribosome network stability.

Relative binding energies of non- and near-cognate codons: a possible cue for codon selection The scanning of the 5 UTR by the 48S PIC primarily involves the anticodon of tRNAi interacting with mRNA… [+25819 chars]
