Which of the following statements about how cells control the size of the poly-A tail on mRNA molecules in order to regulate translation initiation is FALSE? To inhibit translation initiation, a protein called CPEB binds to the CPE sequence on the mRNA. This will then bring in an enzyme called PARN. O If a kinase inhibitor was introduced, then Maskin and PARN would be able to continue to exert their inhibitory effect on translation initiation. To initiate translation, the protein CPEB gets phosphorylated by a specific kinase. This causes a conformational change that excludes both Maskin and PARN. O If a kinase inhibitor was introduced, then CPEB would be phosphorylated, so no conformational change would occur. Without Maskin and PARN, the poly-A tail can extend and eIF4E and eIF4G can interact with each other to initiate translation.

QUESTION 8
Which of the following statements about how cells control the size of the poly-A tail on mRNA molecules in order to regulate
translation initiation is FALSE?
To inhibit translation initiation, a protein called CPEB binds to the CPE sequence on the mRNA. This will then bring in an
enzyme called PARN.
O If a kinase inhibitor was introduced, then Maskin and PARN would be able to continue to exert their inhibitory effect on
translation initiation.
To initiate translation, the protein CPEB gets phosphorylated by a specific kinase. This causes a conformational change that
excludes both Maskin and PARN.
If a kinase inhibitor was introduced, then CPEB would be phosphorylated, so no conformational change would occur.
Without Maskin and PARN, the poly-A tail can extend and elF4E and eIF4G can interact with each other to initiate translation.
