On the origin of the mitochondrial genetic code: Towards a unified mathematical framework for the management of genetic information [PDF]
, 2012 The origin of the genetic code represents one of the most challenging problems in molecular evolution. The genetic code is an important universal feature of extant organisms and indicates a common ancestry of different forms of life on earth.

Biophysical Interactions Underpin the Emergence of Information in the Genetic Code
Life, 2023 The genetic code conceals a ‘code within the codons’, which hints at biophysical interactions between amino acids and their cognate nucleotides. Yet, research over decades has failed to corroborate systematic biophysical interactions across the code ...

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

NRF3 activates mTORC1 arginine-dependently for cancer cell viability
iScience, 2023 Summary: Cancer cells coordinate the mTORC1 signals and the related metabolic pathways to robustly and rapidly grow in response to nutrient conditions. Although a CNC-family transcription factor NRF3 promotes cancer development, the biological relevance ...

Detection of meta - and ortho -cleavage dioxygenases in bacterial phenol-degraders
Journal of Applied Sciences and Environmental Management, 2006 In the last five years, in our lab, several bacterial genera capable of degrading phenol as sole carbon source were isolated from different Egyptian ecosystems. Phenol mineralization using these isolates was ranged from 55% to 0.4%.

Codon Distribution in Error-Detecting Circular Codes
Life, 2016 In 1957, Francis Crick et al. suggested an ingenious explanation for the process of frame maintenance. The idea was based on the notion of comma-free codes.
