Evolutionarily conserved non-AUG translation initiation in NAT1/p97/DAP5 (EIF4G2). Genomics. 2005;85:360-71 pubmed publisher
..We found that NAT1 orthologs in Drosophila melanogaster and Halocynthia roretzi also use non-AUG start codons, demonstrating evolutionary conservation of the noncanonical translation initiation...
