Ribosome profiling of ACE-tRNA on transcriptome-wide 3′UTRs. a Ribosome footprint densities on 3′UTRs are plotted as log2-fold change for reads of treated cells vs. control (puc57GG empty vector) as described in the materials and methods. Transcripts were grouped by their endogenous UAA, UAG, and UGA stop codons. Each point represents the mean of two replicates for a transcript. Error bars show Mean ± SD of the log2-fold changes. b The average log2-fold change of normalized ribosome footprint occupancy was plotted for each nucleotide from −9 to +50 nt surrounding stop codons of transcriptome (18,101 sequences). The cartoon illustrates the ~9 nt offset from the 5′ end of ribosome footprint to the first base position of stop codon in the ribosome E-site. ACE-tRNA genes used for 4× constructs are Trp-chr17.trna39 (UGA), Gly-chr19.trna2 (UGA), Arg-chr9.trna6 (UGA), Gln-chr17.tRNA14 (UAA), and Glu-chr13.trna2 (UAG). Sequences are located in Supplementary Data 1
