uORF Shuffling Fine-Tunes Gene Expression at a Deep Level of the Process

Upstream open reading frames (uORFs) are present in the 5’ leader sequences (or 5’ untranslated regions) upstream of the protein-coding main ORFs (mORFs) in eukaryotic polycistronic mRNA. It is well known that a uORF negatively affects translation of the mORF. Emerging ribosome profiling approaches...
