New toolbox aids in characterizing internal ribosomal entry sites in cells

Summary

Nutrition label

91% Informative

The ribosome is an active regulator of gene expression at the level of protein biosynthesis.

Ribosome composition influences selective translation such that customized ribosomes preferentially bind and translate certain mRNAs.

Internal ribosomal entry sites (IRESes) are specialized, folded sequences within an RNA strand that are particularly well known in the genetic material of viruses.
