Single-stranded regions modulate conformational dynamics and ATPase activity of eIF4A to optimize 5′-UTR unwinding

Eukaryotic translation initiation requires unwinding of secondary structures in the 5′-untranslated region of mRNA. The DEAD-box helicase eIF4A is thought to unwind structural elements in the 5′-UTR in conjunction with eIF4G and eIF4B. Both factors jointly stimulate eIF4A activities by modulation of...
