Preferred Label : Protein Translation Pathway;
NCIt related terms : Eukaryotic protein translation;
Alternative definition : BIOCARTA: The scanning translation initiation model suggests that 40S ribosomal subunit
preloaded with factors bind to the 5' end of the mRNA near the cap. The 48S subunit
moves along the mRNA until it finds the initiation triplet and in complex with tRNA
and 60S subunit forms the first peptide bond. Translation control is mostly regulated
at the protein initiation step through translation initiation factors such as eIF2
or eIF4. (This definition may be outdated - see the DesignNote.);
