COVID-19 serologic testing: FAQs and caveats

Summary

Since multiple ribosomes can engage a single mRNA, nonuniform ribosome progression can result in collisions. Ribosome collisions during translation elongation elicit a multifaceted ribosome-associated quality control (RQC) response. Despite advanced mechanistic understanding of translation initiation, a parallel RQC pathway that acts on collided preinitiation complexes has not been described. Here, we show that blocking...
