start codon

The mechanism for selecting a start codon in bacteria is different.

Both have reasonable matches to a consensus start codon (41).

Alternate start codons result in two isoforms of the protein.

A methionine in exon 2 was taken instead for the start codon.

This exon contains the main starting codon for the gene.

Alternative start codons are common in the avian species.

They also reported a second transcription initiation site 253 nucleotides upstream of the start codon.

This prevents ribosomes from binding the gene's start codon.

Stars are used to indicate in frame stop codons upstream of the putative start codon.

The pairedless proteins possess molecular weights of 43, 33, or 32kDa, depending on the particular start codon used.

Six of the class XI myosins have an intron after the start codon.

It is located just downstream of the AUG start codon.

Coding regions begin with the start codon and end with a stop codon.

Translation starts with a chain initiation codon (start codon).

The first in-frame ATG start codon is in exon 3.

The start codon is almost always preceded by an untranslated region 5' UTR.

Bioinformatics programs usually allow for alternate start codons when searching for protein coding genes.

In eukaryotes and archaea, the amino acid encoded by the start codon is methionine.

In essence, there are 3 ways that the 40S ribosome can come to recognize the start codon: scanning, internal entry, and shunting.

The most common start codon is AUG.

When the complex encounters secondary structure, it must melt the structure to reach the start codon or it will fall off the molecule.

The cHP cis element has been shown to direct translation start from the suboptimal first start codon.

An alternate translation start codon has been identified, which results in isoforms differing in the N-terminal extracellular tail.

Alternate start codons (non ATG) are very rare in eukaryotic genomes.

This will occur if spacers separate the different proteins, and each spacer has to have a Shine-Dalgarno sequence located upstream of the start codon.
