Preferred Label : peptide chain initiation, translational;
MeSH definition : A process of GENETIC TRANSLATION whereby the formation of a peptide chain is started.
It includes assembly of the RIBOSOME components, the MESSENGER RNA coding for the
polypeptide to be made, INITIATOR TRNA, and PEPTIDE INITIATION FACTORS; and placement
of the first amino acid in the peptide chain. The details and components of this process
are unique for prokaryotic protein biosynthesis and eukaryotic protein biosynthesis.;
MeSH synonym : chain initiation, peptide, translational; protein chain initiation, translational; translational peptide chain initiation; protein biosynthesis initiation; biosynthesis initiation, protein; initiation, protein biosynthesis; translation initiation, genetic; genetic translation initiation; initiation, genetic translation; translational initiation, protein; initiation, protein translational; protein translational initiation; protein translation initiation; translation initiation, protein; initiation, protein translation;
MeSH annotation : coordinate with specific peptide; for protein biosynthesis on the ribosome only; for
non-ribosomal biosynthesis use PEPTIDE BIOSYNTHESIS, NUCLEIC ACID-INDEPENDENT;
