</span>
Here are the processes involved in the Translation Initiation of Eukaryotes

1) 5'cap is used to position the mRNA on the 40S ribosomal subunit
2) ribosome scans down the mRNA looking for an AUG.
3) There is an initiator methionine-tRNA
4) The initiating AUG codon is often within a consensus sequence called the Kozak sequence (5'-ACCAUGG-3')
5) After binding the cap, ribosomes scan down the mRNA until the Kozak sequence is reached and translation begins
<span>6)The poly (A) tail and 5'-cap binding proteins help the initiation complex form
