Aminoacyl Transferase Determines Specificity of Amino Acid Inserted at a Codon
eIF-1 Promotes dissociation of 80S ribosomes Binds after eIF-4 and allows scanning to begin eIF-2 GTPase activated by 60S subunit binding Stabilizes binding of initiator met-tRNAimet eIF-3 Promotes 80S ribosome dissociation Binds to 40S subunit & prevents reassociation of 60S subunit Promotes binding of eIF-2 eIF-4 Multi-component complex Recruits mRNA binding Recognizes cap, pA tail Promotes binding of eIF-1 for scanning eIF-5 Promotes reformation of 80S ribosome Displaces eIF-6 eIF-6 Promotes dissociation of 80S ribosome Binds 60S subunit & prevents reassociation with 40S subunit Roles of Eukaryotic Initiation Factors
Steps in Eukaryotic Translation Initiation eIF-1 + eIF-6 eIF-1 + eIF3 eIF-6
eIF4 Complex Components & Functions • eIF4E – Cap binding • eIF4G – eIF3 binding PAB1P binding eIF4A – helicase eIF4B – stimulates RNA binding of eIF4A
Scanning Model of Eukaryotic Translation Initiation Requirements: Must be able to determine which AUG is the right one to start translation
