RNA folding kinetics regulates translation of phage MS2 maturation gene

The gene for the maturation protein of the single-stranded RNA coliphage MS2 is preceded by an untranslated leader of 130 nt, which folds into a cloverleaf, i.e., three stem–loop structures enclosed by a long distance interaction (LDI). This LDI prevents translation because its 3′ moiety contains th...
