Purine rich
Slight sequece variation
Shine Dalgaro Sequence Located at?

Translational Coupling
It refers to the mechanism by which the translation of one mRNA molecule is linked to the translation of another, often leading to coordinated expression of genes that may be functionally related.
N-Formyl Methionine and Methionine
Initiation Codon (IC) is same for both
But tRNA is different
tRNA for N-Formyl Methionine
tRNA^fmet
tRNA for Methionine
tRNA^met
Enzyme for N-Formyl Methionine
Met tRNA Synthetase: Amino acylates bot tRNA with Met
What promotes active translation?
High Complementarity b/w RBS & rRNA
Proper spacing b/w RBS and Start Codon
Amino acid binds with tRNA with?
Ester bond
If an ORF lacks RBS, will they be translated. Yes or No?
Yes
Transformylase
Transfer formy group from
N^10 Formyl Tetrahydrofolate to amino group of Met.
