Codon Usage Domains over Bacterial Chromosomes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The geography of codon bias distributions over prokaryotic genomes and its impact upon chromosomal organization are analyzed. To this aim, we introduce a clustering method based on information theory, specifically designed to cluster genes according to ...

Codon usage suggests that translational selection has a major impact on protein expression in trypanosomatids. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
BACKGROUND: Different proteins are required in widely different quantities to build a living cell. In most organisms, transcription control makes a major contribution to differential expression.

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).

Stops making sense: translational trade-offs and stop codon reassignment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background Efficient gene expression involves a trade-off between (i) premature termination of protein synthesis; and (ii) readthrough, where the ribosome fails to dissociate at the terminal stop. Sense codons that are similar in sequence to stop codons

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.

Environmental shaping of codon usage and functional adaptation across microbial communities. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Microbial communities represent the largest portion of the Earth's biomass. Metagenomics projects use high-throughput sequencing to survey these communities and shed light on genetic capabilities that enable microbes to inhabit every corner of the ...

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.
