RNA Structure Coordinates Translation Across the Meiotic Program

Hao Wu, Caini Zhou, Shoucheng Du…·Yun Bai

In yeast meiosis, flexibly folded mRNAs are preferentially translated while cytoplasmic RNA helicase levels dip; raising Ded1p or breaking CCW22 UTR pairing mistimes translation and disrupts meiotic progression.
