abstract：:Terminal oligopyrimidine (TOP) mRNAs are a group of messengers translationally regulated according to the growth status of the cell. Two hypotheses have been proposed for the mechanism of the regulation: (i) there is a specific translational regulator which can reversibly alter TOP-mRNA structure, (ii) a component of ...
