Developmental regulation of canonical and small ORF translation from mRNAs.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Ribosomal profiling has revealed the translation of thousands of sequences outside annotated protein-coding genes, including small open reading frames of less than 100 codons, and the translational regulation of many genes. Here we present an improved version of Poly-Ribo-Seq and apply it to Drosophila melanogaster embryos to extend the catalog of in vivo translated small ORFs, and to reveal the translational regulation of both small and canonical ORFs from mRNAs across embryogenesis.

Results

We obtain highly correlated samples across five embryonic stages, with nearly 500 million putative ribosomal footprints mapped to mRNAs, and compare them to existing Ribo-Seq and proteomic data. Our analysis reveals, for the first time in Drosophila, footprints mapping to cod
