Generation of Premature Termination Codon (PTC)-Harboring Pseudorabies Virus (PRV) via Genetic Code Expansion Technology

open access: yesViruses, 2022
Despite many efforts and diverse approaches, developing an effective herpesvirus vaccine remains a great challenge. Traditional inactivated and live-attenuated vaccines always raise efficacy or safety concerns. This study used Pseudorabies virus (PRV), a

Amber suppression in Escherichia coli by unusual mitochondria-like transfer RNAs [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1998
The “cloverleaf” base-pairing pattern was established as the structural paradigm of active tRNA species some 30 years ago. Nevertheless, this pattern does not accommodate the folding of certain mitochondrial tRNAs. For these recalcitrant tRNAs, we have proposed structures having from 5 to 10 base pairs in the anticodon stem rather ...

Firelight LED Source: Toward a Balanced Approach to the Performance of Solid-State Lighting for Outdoor Environments

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal, 2014
We report on a blue-amber (“firelight”) cluster of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) with extra-low correlated color temperature (~1860 K) optimized for outdoor lighting under mesopic conditions.

Monitoring protein misfolding by site-specific labeling of proteins in vivo. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Incorporating fluorescent amino acids by suppression of the TAG amber codon is a useful tool for site-specific labeling of proteins and visualizing their localization in living cells.

Rice Nudix Hydrolase OsNUDX2 Sanitizes Oxidized Nucleotides

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2022
Nudix hydrolase (NUDX) hydrolyzes 8-oxo-(d)GTP to reduce the levels of oxidized nucleotides in the cells. 8-oxo-(d)GTP produced by reactive oxygen species (ROS) is incorporated into DNA/RNA and mispaired with adenine, causing replicational and ...

Polyamines Stimulate Suppression of Amber Termination Codons in vitro by Normal tRNAs [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Biochemistry, 1980
Polyamines, such as spermine and spermidine, are able to stimulate reading of amber termination codons on viral messenger RNAs in vitro. This phenomenon is not due to an overall increase of error frequency during translation, but to a specific effect on a normal tRNA that is present in various eukaryotic cell preparations. The enhancement of reading of

Unnatural amino acid incorporation in E. coli: current and future applications in the design of therapeutic proteins.

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2014
Unnatural amino acid (UAA) incorporation by amber codon suppression offers scientists a powerful tool to modify the properties of proteins at will. UAA incorporation has been used for a plethora of fundamental research applications and, more recently ...

Structure‐forward targeting of claudins with synthetic binders

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Claudins form the paracellular barriers between epithelial and endothelial tissues at tight junctions and are targets for molecular binders with the goal of modulating barrier permeability. Claudin‐binding molecules are relevant in drug delivery or in altering claudin interactions with disease‐causing proteins.

Mutations in genes involved in nonsense mediated decay ameliorate the phenotype of sel-12 mutants with amber stop mutations in Caenorhabditis elegans

open access: yesBMC Genetics, 2009
Background Presenilin proteins are part of a complex of proteins that can cleave many type I transmembrane proteins, including Notch Receptors and the Amyloid Precursor Protein, in the middle of the transmembrane domain.
