Eukaryotic Translation mRNA tRNA rRNA
mRNA -monocistronic -1,000-2,000 bases long -methylated at 5’cap -100-200 bases of poly A at 3’end -nontranslated 5’ reader < 100 bases -nontranslated 3’ tailer ~ 1,000 bases - AUG as the INITIATOR -UAA,UAG,&UGA as TERMINATOR
Life Cycle of Eukaryotic mRNA -removal of Poly(A) need for decapping enzyme -Poly(A)-binding protein, PABP on Poly(A) prevents the decapping enzyme from binding to the 5’end
AU-rich sequence, called ARE ~50 bases in 3’ tailer -AUUUA, more repeated -trigger destabilization
TRE sequence - contain strm-loop structures for protein binding -Protein inhibit destabilizing
tRNA Met-tRNAifor initiation Met-tRNAmforelongation - No formylated Methionine -has an unusual tertiary structure, modofied by phosphorylation of the 2’ribose position
The right context for Recognization -AUG -the most important seq. GCCAGCCAUGG, purine three bases before AUG and G immediately following it. CAP; for a stable complex to be formed at initiation codon
Eukaryotic Initiation *form ternary complex *bind free 40S *attach the 5’ end Ternary complex; -Met-tRNAi -eIF2 -GTP
Initiation Factors *bind 5’ cap *unwind mRNA *bind subunit initiation complex *support 60S joining
Elongation Factors: EF-Tu, load aminoacyl tRNA EF-Ts, GDP to GTP
Translocation: Peptidyl transferase, synthesis peptide
EF-Tu EF-G
