The self-perpetuating amyloid isoform, or prion, of the yeast translation termination factor eRF3 modulates programmed translational frameshifting that controls a regulatory circuit determining the polyamine levels in a yeast cell. But it is still unclear whether this effect is adaptive or pathological.
酵母翻译终止因子eRF3的自我延续性淀粉样异构体或朊病毒,可调节程序性翻译移码,该移码控制着一个决定酵母细胞中多胺水平的调节回路。但这种效应是适应性的还是病理性的仍不清楚。
