Upstream Open Reading Frames and Human Genetic Disease

Abstract: In many eukaryotic messenger ribonucleic acids (mRNAs) one or more short upstream open reading frames (uORFs) precede the initiation codon of the main coding region. For example, in human cells, uORFs are present in about half of the transcripts. Emerging ribosome profiling and peptidomics...
