Conservation of uORF repressiveness and sequence features in mouse, human and zebrafish

Upstream open reading frames (uORFs) can repress gene expression. Here, Guo-Liang Chew and colleagues use bioinformatics approaches to show that conservation of uORF-mediated translational repression is mediated by sequence features in human, mouse and zebrafish genomes.
