Human Argonaute 1 5’ untranslated region can mediate cap-independent translation initiation via an internal ribosome entry site

Argonaute proteins (AGOs) are essential effectors in RNA-mediated gene silencing pathways. There are eight AGO-like proteins in human cells, grouped in two families: the eIF2C/AGO subfamily and the PIWI subfamily. The eIF2C1 gene encodes AGO1, a member of the former subfamily, that is ubiquitously e...
