The initiation of protein biosynthesis is a major determinant of the efficiency of gene expression at the translational level. It is known that the nucleotide sequences around the AUG translation initiation codon act as an important signal to trigger the initiation of the translation event. (Kozak, 1987)
Understanding regulatory mechanisms of protein synthesis in eukaryotes is essential for the accurate annotation of genome sequences. Kozak reported that the nucleotide sequence GCCGCC(A/G)CCAUGG (AUG is the initiation codon) was frequently observed in vertebrate genes and that this 'consensus' sequence enhanced translation initiation. However, later studies using invertebrate, fungal and plant genes reported different 'consensus' sequences. (Nakagawa, 2007)
