ooOOooOOooOOoo -eIF4F (at 5’ end of mRNA) associates with 3’ end of mRNA through poly-A binding protein
-when ribosome done, ideally positioned to restart translation on same mRNA
-recycling!

scanning in euks -The small subunit moves 5’->3’ along the mRNA in an ATP-dependent process driven by eIF4F-associated RNA helicase
-finds AUG, some IFs released
-large subunit binds, all IFs released

eIF4B -removes any secondary structure of mRNA by RNA helicase activity. 0 mcs5109 Thu, 23 Oct 2008 03:15:59 GMT view revision history
eIF4F -recognizes 5’ cap structure of mRNA
-helps move small subunit along mRNA (w/ ATP) to find AUG
-associates with 3’ end of mRNA through poly-A binding protein

translation initiation in euks >30 different polypeptides are involved in initiation of translation in eukaryotes 0 mcs5109 Thu, 23 Oct 2008 03:15:59 GMT view revision history
after all 3 IFs bound, the small subunit is prepared to bind the mRNA and the initiator tRNA 0 mcs5109 Thu, 23 Oct 2008 03:00:58 GMT view revision history
IF3 keep ribosomal subunits apart

(has to leave 1st so ribosome can work)

IF2 with GTP, brings fMet-tRNA to the P site on the small subunit 0 mcs5109 Thu, 23 Oct 2008 03:00:58 GMT view revision history
IF1 prevents tRNAs from binding to the portion of the small subunit that will become A site 0 mcs5109 Thu, 23 Oct 2008 03:00:58 GMT view revision history
aminopeptidases remove the amino terminal methionine as well as one or two additional amino acids in pros 0 mcs5109 Thu, 23 Oct 2008 02:51:38 GMT view revision history
Deformylase -removes the formyl group from the amino terminus during or after the synthesis of the polypeptide chain
-many pro proteins don't even have Met on N terminus

SD equence base pairing (RBS, SD sequence) in the 5’ untranslated region and the 3’ end of the 16S rRNA 0 mcs5109 Thu, 23 Oct 2008 02:50:04 GMT view revision history
initiation in pro mRNA -small subunit (30S) associates in mRNA
-base pairing b/w RBS and 16S rRNA
-AUG ideally in P site
