Genome-Wide Profiling of Cap-Independent Translation Enhancing Elements in the Human Genome

We report an in vitro selection strategy to identify RNA sequences that mediate cap-independent translation initiation. This method entails the mRNA display of trillions of genomic fragments, selection for translation initiation, and high-throughput deep sequencing. We identified >12,000 translat...

Sumario:We report an in vitro selection strategy to identify RNA sequences that mediate cap-independent translation initiation. This method entails the mRNA display of trillions of genomic fragments, selection for translation initiation, and high-throughput deep sequencing. We identified >12,000 translation enhancing elements (TEEs) in the human genome, generated a high-resolution map of human TEE bearing regions (TBRs), and validated the function of a subset of sequences in vitro and in cells.
