Comprehensive genome-wide identification of angiosperm upstream ORFs with peptide sequences conserved in various taxonomic ranges using a novel pipeline, ESUCA

Upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in the 5′-untranslated regions (5′-UTRs) of certain eukaryotic mRNAs encode evolutionarily conserved functional peptides, such as cis-acting regulatory peptides that control translation of downstream main ORFs (mORFs).
