(The amino acids are strung together to make proteins.) A start codon is made up of the letters ATG, which codes for the amino acid methionine. When the machinery of the cells sees that first ATG, it knows to start making the protein there.

The other component of a gene you need to know about when assigning a start codon is something called the ribosome binding site (RBS; also known as the shine-delgarno sequence). This is a series of nucleotides located 7-13 bases upstream of the start codon.

The start codon marks the site at which translation into protein sequence begins, and the stop codon marks the site at which translation ends. ... How do we know which codon codes for which amino acid? Use a Genetic Code table, as in the next slide.

There is an overabundance of phase 0 introns immediately after the start codon in eukaryotic genes, which has been described before only for human ribosomal proteins. We give a detailed description of these start codon introns and the proteins that contain them.

Well, eIF5 is the GAP (Gtapase Activating Protein) associated with the 48s complex that stimulates GTP hydrolysis upon recognision of the start codon while eIF1 is responsible for selecting the appropriate start codon.
