Schematic representation of three newly proposed mechanisms for evading uORF-mediated repression of gene expression. (A) Alternative transcription start site (TSS) selection. (B) Alternative splicing out of the uORF. (C) Cap-independent translational initiation mediated by an internal ribosomal entry site (IRES). The environment around plants may affect the occurrence of these mechanisms.
