Ribosome Binding Sites/Yeast/Overview

A sequence logo showing the most conserved bases around the initiation codon from all human mRNAs.

Yeast RBSs, more often known as Kozak sequences, are designed to be recognized by the yeast ribosome. As a eukaryotic translation signal, the sequence of yeast RBSs are distinct from prokaryotic RBSs. The registry collection of yeast RBSs is currently small, we need your help! Please contribute new yeast RBSs to the registry or provide further information about our existing yeast RBSs.
