What is an IRES sequence?
IRES are sequences that can recruit ribosomes and allow cap-independent translation, which can link two coding sequences in one bicistronic vector and allow the translation of both proteins in hESCs.
How does an IRES work?
IRES elements are RNA regions that recruit the 40S ribosomal subunit through cap-independent mechanisms. These elements often adopt complex RNA structures, which serve as the anchoring site for the ribosome guided by RNA–RNA and/or RNA–protein interactions.
What does Bicistronic mean?
(bī″sĭs-trŏn′ĭk) [″ + cistron] Capable of making two proteins from a single messenger RNA molecule.
What is a Bicistronic vector?
As the name suggests, bicistronic plasmids contain two distinct genes of interest within one vector. The vector transports the genes together into the cells, which means that every cell with one gene also has the other.
What does Kozak sequence do?
The Kozak consensus sequence (Kozak consensus or Kozak sequence) is a nucleic acid motif that functions as the protein translation initiation site in most eukaryotic mRNA transcripts. It ensures that a protein is correctly translated from the genetic message, mediating ribosome assembly and translation initiation.
What is Bicistronic mRNA?
An mRNA molecule is said to be monocistronic when it contains the genetic information to translate only a single protein chain (polypeptide). Most of the mRNA found in bacteria and archaea is polycistronic, as is the human mitochondrial genome. Dicistronic or bicistronic mRNA encodes only two proteins.
Do eukaryotes have Polycistronic mRNA?
A corollary of the scanning model is that eukaryotes should normally have no polycistronic gene structures, i.e. mRNAs that code for more than one protein product. However, polycistronic mRNAs are known to exist in eukaryotic viruses [5], hence the eukaryotic translational machinery must have ways to deal with them.
Are prokaryotes Monocistronic?
Prokaryotes produce both polycistronic and monocistronic mRNAs. Eukaryotes produce only monocistronic mRNAs.
What is Monocistronic gene?
Polycistronic mRNA is a mRNA that encodes several proteins and is characteristic of many bacterial and chloroplast mRNAs. At least 15 different mRNAs are produced from this gene cluster. Monocistronic mRNA is a mRNA that encodes only one protein and all eukaryotic mRNAs are monocistronic.
