Research Abstract |
During amphibian metamorphosis, thyroid hormone induces a series of dynamic morphological changes. We showed that the 5'-untranslated region(5'-UTR) reduces the translation of the thyroid hormone receptor(TR)αmRNA to one-twentieth. Five elements in TRα5'-UTR, which are composed of 15 to 24 nucleotides, possess translational repressive activity, and inhibit the translation of the downstream open reading frame in the 5'-UTRs of other mRNAs. There is a novel translational repressive sequence similar to the Sp1-binding site among elements.
