A new study finds that at least one Archaea has surprisingly flexibility when interpreting genetic code, which goes against a ...
Scientists have discovered a microbe that bends the rules of the genetic code. This organism, Methanosarcina acetivorans, uses a flexible translation process. One codon, UAG, traditionally a stop ...
Gene editing can repair mutations that prematurely halt protein synthesis, resulting in incomplete peptides that cause various diseases. However, other approaches achieve the same effect without ...
To overcome the inherent challenge of translation termination interference caused by stop codon reprogramming in mammalian cells, researchers from Peking University led by Chen Peng from College of ...
A messenger RNA (mRNA) does more than provide ribosomes a template for creating a sequence of amino acids. It also conveys regulatory information, including so-called stop codons. But just as cars ...
Translation termination takes place when one of three stop codons is recognized by a proteinaceous class 1 release factor (RF) in the A site of the ribosome. The RFs are bifunctional molecules, like ...
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, Vol. 104, No. 26 (Jun. 26, 2007), pp. 10824-10829 (6 pages) In universal-code eukaryotes, a single-translation ...
The complete nucleotide sequence of the tapeworm Taenia solium mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) has been determined. The sequence is 13,709 base pairs in length and contains 36 genes (12 for proteins ...
