The newly added poly(A) tail is associated with the PABP. PABP requires 11-12 adenosines in order to bind. PABP and the bound Poly(A) tail work together to stabilize mRNA by preventing exo-ribonucleolytic degradation,¹ thereby guiding the mRNA molecule into the translation pathway. Upon mRNA poly(A) recognition, PABP and the bound mRNA stimulate the initiation of translation by interacting with initiation factor eIF4G. Mutations of Arg→Ala and Lys→Ala in human eIF4G and in yeast extracts decrease the rate of translation initiation and destabilizing the interactions with PABP, indicating that basic residues are essential to the interaction with PABP.¹ |

Poly(A) ribonuclease (PARN) work to deadenylate mRNA, but the presence of PABP prevents its activity. The PABP protein is able to protect mRNA degradation through the complex that it forms with the elongation initiation factors, which prevent deadenylation and decapping due to their presence.¹ This has been verified by the presence of deadenylation products and the comparative size of PABP footprints. There is some evidence indicating that PABP is involved in the prevention of endonucleolytic cleavage; however, only a small amount of mRNA is degraded from endonucleolytic cleavage, so it is not widely researched.¹ |

- | + | PABP and mRNA complex aids in translation initiation under two proposed mechanisms. Within the two mechanisms, studies have highlighted the presence The “Closed Loop” Model entails the recognition of the 5’ 7-methyl-Guanosine cap by eIF4F, which is a ternary complex made up of a cap-binding protein (eIF4E) and RNA helicase (eIF4A) connected by the bridging protein (eIF4G).¹ Translation initiation is stimulated by the PABP bound to the poly(A) tail and its association with eIF4G.¹ The 5’ UTR is unwound by the elF4F complex, and ribosomes are recruited to create the initiation complex. The eIF4G protein then guides the 40S subunit to the start codon (AUG), which is followed by the binding 60S ribosomal subunit, creating the 80S initiation complex.¹ The association of the PABP and eIF4G gave rise to the name “closed loop.”¹ | |
