Codon usage bias [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Biology Reports, 2021
Codon usage bias is the preferential or non-random use of synonymous codons, a ubiquitous phenomenon observed in bacteria, plants and animals. Different species have consistent and characteristic codon biases. Codon bias varies not only with species, family or group within kingdom, but also between the genes within an organism.

Geographical distribution of Brucella melitensis inferred from rpoB gene variation

open access: yesJournal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2017
Introduction: Currently available tests have limitations for the identification of Brucella species and strains, and their genetic lineage. The genome sequence of the rpoB gene encoding the β-subunit of DNA-dependent RNA polymerase was investigated for ...

Candidate essential genes in Burkholderia cenocepacia J2315 identified by genome-wide TraDIS

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Burkholderia cenocepacia infection often leads to fatal cepacia syndrome in cystic fibrosis patients. However, antibiotic therapy rarely results in complete eradication of the pathogen due to its intrinsic resistance to many clinically available ...

Intracellular management of information: from DNA to proteins

open access: yestripleC: Communication, Capitalism & Critique, 2009
The living features of cells constitute an information flow from a central database, the nuclear DNA, to molecular effectors, proteins, which are synthesised in the cytoplasm.

Analysis of p53 codon 72 polymorphism and HPV 5,8 E6 oncoprotein expression in Basal cell carcinoma in Basrah [PDF]

open access: yesThe Medical Journal of Basrah University, 2016
Background: Two polymorphic forms of the p53 gene that codes either for Arginine or proline at codon 72 were identified, However, this individual might have one of the three genotypes: Arginine/Arginine, Proline/Proline or Arginine /Proline.

Characterization of the mIF4G Domains in the RNA Surveillance Protein Upf2p

open access: yesCurrent Issues in Molecular Biology, 2023
Thirty percent of all mutations causing human disease generate mRNAs with premature termination codons (PTCs). Recognition and degradation of these PTC-containing mRNAs is carried out by the mechanism known as nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD).

Effects of Arbovirus Multi-Host Life Cycles on Dinucleotide and Codon Usage Patterns

open access: yesViruses, 2019
Arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) of vertebrates including dengue, zika, chikungunya, Rift Valley fever, and blue tongue viruses cause extensive morbidity and mortality in humans, agricultural animals, and wildlife across the globe.

The m5C methyltransferase NSUN2 promotes codon‐dependent oncogenic translation by stabilising tRNA in anaplastic thyroid cancer

open access: yesClinical and Translational Medicine, 2023
Background Translation dysregulation plays a crucial role in tumourigenesis and cancer progression. Oncogenic translation relies on the stability and availability of tRNAs for protein synthesis, making them potential targets for cancer therapy.

A Novel Mutation of PARK-2 Gene in a Patient with Early-onset Parkinson’s Disease

open access: yesOman Medical Journal, 2020
Between 3–5% of all patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) have onset before the age of 40 years, which is likely related to genetic causes. Parkin gene mutations are the most common mutations, which are associated with autosomal recessive early-onset PD.
