Table 2.

Structural features of the mRNAs that are most upregulated.

Description P value
shorter 5′-UTR t test *** 2.805E-08
higher 5′-UTR MFE t test *** 1.558E-11
fewer uORF χ2 *** 1.096E-07
TISU elements χ2 *** 6.074E-06
TOP/TOP like χ2 ns
AU-rich elements χ2 ns

These included upstream open-reading frame (uORF) = 833; terminal oligopyrimidine tract TOP/TOP-like = 126; AU-rich elements =  297; translation initiator of short 5′-UTR, TISU = 28 MFE = minimum-free energy.
