      • Translation initiation starts with the binding of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 1 (eIF1), eIF1A and eIF3 to the 40S small ribosomal subunit (top left and clockwise). eIF5 and a ternary complex of eIF2, guanosine 5′-triphosphate (GTP) and the methionine initiatior tRNA (Met-tRNA iMet) binds to this complex to form a 43S translation pre-initiation complex (43S).

  4. Dec 5, 2023 · Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 (eIF2) is the initiation factor that delivers the Met-tRNA i Met to the P site, and one of the main targets for translation regulation.

  5. Coordinated movements of eukaryotic translation initiation factors eIF1, eIF1A, and eIF5 trigger phosphate release from eIF2 in response to start codon recognition by the ribosomal preinitiation complex.

  6. The initiation of protein synthesis consists in the recruitment of a ribosome·initiator tRNA complex to the initiation codon of a messenger RNA. In prokaryotes, this process involves the direct interaction of the ribosomal RNA with the mRNA.
