Figure 4

Possible roles for phosphorylation of eIF4E in the initiation process. Models for the possible role of eIF4E phosphorylation in translation initiation are depicted. See the text for details. Only the 5′‐UTR and start codon of the mRNA are shown; ‘P’ denotes the phosphorylaton of Ser209 in eIF4E; the trident represents the initiator Inline graphic. Letters identify complexes referred to in the text, to which the reader is referred for detailed discussion of these models.
