Functional Cyclization of Eukaryotic mRNAs
The closed-loop model of eukaryotic translation states that mRNA is circularized by a chain of the cap-eIF4E-eIF4G-poly(A)-binding protein (PABP)-poly(A) interactions that brings 5′ and 3′ ends together. This circularization is thought to promote the engagement of terminating ribosomes to a new roun...
