Ribosome shunting



 All or part of this article may be confusing or unclear.
Please help clarify the article. Suggestions may be on the talk page. (December 2006)

Ribosome shunting is a mechanism of translation initiation in which ribosomes physically bypass, or shunt over, parts of the 5' untranslated region to reach the initiation codon. This enables viruses to have more information than usual in an mRNA molecule.
