Popis: Translation within mitochondria relies upon specialized mitoribosomes and initiation factors. Here the authors use Cryo-EM and single molecule approaches to describe the early steps leading to translation initiation in human mitochondria, and the roles of mitochondria-specific ribosomal proteins and initiation factors mtIF2 and mtIF3.
