Escherichia coli translational initiation factor IF3: a unique case of translational regulation

L Gold et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 1984 Nov.

Abstract

The Escherichia coli translational initiation factor IF3 is encoded by an mRNA that has an unusual ribosome binding site. We have explored a mechanism that may account for the translation of IF3 and that provides regulation of the quantity of IF3 relative to ribosomes.
