Asterisks indicate an additional function in stabilization of the transcript 5′ end upstream of the reading frame whose translation is stimulated. Question marks denote proposed but experimentally unconfirmed functions in stimulation of translation. SDR, short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase; HAT, half a tetratricopeptide repeat; SMR, small MutS-related.
