Example sentences for: cap-independent

How can you use “cap-independent” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

It was recently demonstrated that elements within a 217 nucleotide sequence from the 5'-UTR of the mouse p27 Kip1mRNA is able to mediate cap-independent translation of a reporter gene in NIH3T3 and D6P2T cells [ 28 ] . There is a high level of sequence homology between the mouse and human 5'-UTRs and the major transcriptional start site is also conserved [ 29 ] . Therefore it is likely the 5'-UTR of the human p27 Kip1message is also able to mediate cap-independent translation initiation.
It has been shown that expression of p27 Kip1is controlled at the translational level [ 3 26 29 ] and that the p27 Kip15'- UTR is able to mediate enhanced translation rates [ 31 ] . In addition, it was recently reported that the p27 Kip15'- UTR has an internal ribosome entry site that allows cap-independent initiation of translation [ 30 ] . However, none of these reports have utilized the full 5'- UTR that results from transcription initiation at the major start site.
The second cistron, encoding luciferase, is downstream of the CAT stop codon and therefore must be translated by a cap-independent mechanism mediated by sequence elements inserted between the two cistrons.
Expression of constitutively active 4EBP-1-5A enhances cap-independent translation through the p27 Kip15'-UTR
Part of this can be explained by the fact that the p27 Kip15'-UTR is able to promote cap-independent translation.
