Title: The 5'-leader sequence of tobacco mosaic virus RNA mediates initiation-factor-4E-independent, but still initiation-factor-4A-dependent translation in yeast extracts. Author: Altmann M, Blum S, Wilson TM, Trachsel H. Journal: Gene; 1990 Jul 02; 91(1):127-9. PubMed ID: 2205536. Abstract: Messenger RNAs encoding chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) with or without the 5'-leader sequence of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) RNA were synthesized in vitro and translated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae extracts dependent on eukaryotic initiation factors eIF-4E or eIF-4A. The 5'-leader sequence of TMV RNA renders translation of CAT mRNA eIF-4E-independent but still 4A-dependent.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
