Leaky Scanning02:28

Leaky Scanning

5.2K
During most eukaryotic translation processes, the small 40S ribosome subunit scans an mRNA from its 5' end until it encounters the first start AUG codon. The large 60S ribosomal subunit then joins the smaller one to initiate protein synthesis. The location of the translation initiation is largely determined by the nucleotides near the start codon as there may be multiple translation initiation sites present on the mRNA.  Marilyn Kozak discovered that the sequence RCCAUGG (where R...

Translation

15.3K
Translation is the process of synthesizing proteins from the genetic information carried by messenger RNA (mRNA). Following transcription, it constitutes the final step in the expression of genes. This process is carried out by ribosomes, complexes of protein and specialized RNA molecules. Ribosomes, transfer RNA (tRNA), and other proteins produce a chain of amino acids—the polypeptide—as the end product of translation.

Ribosome Profiling02:24

Ribosome Profiling

3.6K
Ribosome profiling or ribo-sequencing is a deep sequencing technique that produces a snapshot of active translation in a cell. It selectively sequences the mRNAs protected by ribosomes to get an insight into a cell’s translation landscape at any given point in time.
Applications of ribosome profiling
Ribosome profiling has many applications, including in vivo monitoring of translation inside a particular organ or tissue type and quantifying new protein synthesis levels.

Area of Science:

  • Linguistics
  • Law
  • Translation Studies

Background:

  • The rise of information and communication technology has increased the importance of legal wiretapping in law enforcement.
  • Understanding intercepted communications is vital for successful police investigations, necessitating the role of specialized interpreters.
  • The specific work of these interpreters, operating at the intersection of language and law, remains largely under-researched.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To contribute to the understanding of the translational activity of intercept interpreters.
  • To address the gap in research concerning this specialized linguistic and legal field.
  • To highlight the unique nature of interlingual intercept interpretation.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of scarce existing studies on intercept interpretation.
  • Empirical data collection through an online questionnaire for a pilot study in Switzerland.
  • Focus on the perspective of intercept interpreters themselves.

Main Results:

  • The field of research is fragmented due to difficulties in accessing these confidential workers.
  • Intercept interpreting encompasses a wide range of activities, distinct from court or interview interpretation.
  • This study is the first to present translational activity from the viewpoint of intercept interpreters.

Conclusions:

  • Interlingual intercept interpretation is a unique translational activity (sui generis).
  • Existing research has not adequately addressed the ethical and deontological questions surrounding intercept interpretation.
  • There is a need for further transdisciplinary research into this specialized area of translation.
