ABSTRACT Title of Document: PROGRAMMED
... However, after the first peptide bond is formed these interactions are relaxed, which allows for translocation of the ribosome (Uemura et al, 2007). Eukaryotic initiation is much more complicated. eIF1, eIF1A, eIF3, and eIF5 combine to form the multifactor complex (Fekete et al, 2007). All of these ...

A General Model of Codon Bias Due to GC Mutational Bias
