Abstract
Translational control is a critical layer of gene expression regulation influencing protein synthesis and cellular responses. Key mechanisms include mRNA sequence and structure, RNA-binding proteins, ribosome dynamics, microRNAs, eIF2 phosphorylation, and polyadenylation. RNA structures, ribosomal stalling, and mRNA localization further fine-tune protein production. The interplay with mRNA decay pathways is also vital. Aberrant translational control contributes to disease, underscoring its significance for therapeutic intervention.
