The 3'-terminal colicin fragments of 16S ribosomal RNA were isolated from Bacillus stearothermophilus and from its kasugamycin-resistant (ksgA) derivative lacking N6-dimethylation of the two adjacent adenosines in a hairpin loop. The fragment from the ksgA strain still contains a naturally

Pumilio 2 (Pum2) interacts with the 3' UTR-containing pumilio binding element (PBE) of RINGO/SPY mRNA to repress translation in Xenopus oocytes. Here, we show that Pum2 also binds directly to the 5' 7mG cap structure; in so doing, it precludes

Translational control is frequently exerted at the stage of mRNA recruitment to the initiating ribosome. We have reconstituted mRNA recruitment to the 43S preinitiation complex (PIC) using purified S. cerevisiae components. We show that eIF3 and the eIF4 factors not

Analogs of the mRNA cap are widely employed to study processes involved in mRNA metabolism as well as being useful in biotechnology and medicinal applications. Here we describe synthesis of six dinucleotide cap analogs bearing a single phosphorothioate modification at

The 7-methylguanosine cap added to the 5' end of mRNA is essential for efficient gene expression and cell viability. Methylation of the guanosine cap is necessary for the translation of most cellular mRNAs in all eukaryotic organisms in which it
