The genomic features that affect the lengths of 5’ untranslated regions in multicellular eukaryotes

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The lengths of 5’UTRs of multicellular eukaryotes have been suggested to be subject to stochastic changes, with upstream start codons (uAUGs) as the major constraint to suppress 5’UTR elongation. However, this stochastic model cannot...
