Abstract
While most of the regulation of translation initiation occurs in the cytosol predominantly through phosphorylation, Ly et al. have discovered the first instance of regulation via protein concentration due to disruption of the nuclear membrane at mitosis.1 Only eIF1 appears to be involved in this regulation, and its release at mitosis enhances translational accuracy of start codon recognition.
