Probing of RNA structures in a positive sense RNA virus reveals selection pressures for structural elements. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In single stranded (+)-sense RNA viruses, RNA structural elements (SEs) play essential roles in the infection process from replication to encapsidation.

Short open reading frames (sORFs) and microproteins: an update on their identification and validation measures

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Science, 2022
A short open reading frame (sORFs) constitutes ≤ 300 bases, encoding a microprotein or sORF-encoded protein (SEP) which comprises ≤ 100 amino acids. Traditionally dismissed by genome annotation pipelines as meaningless noise, sORFs were found to possess ...

Open reading frame cloning: identification, cloning, and expression of open reading frame DNA. [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1982
A plasmid was constructed that facilitates the cloning and expression of open reading frame DNA. A DNA fragment containing a bacterial promoter and the amino terminus of the cI gene of bacteriophage lambda was fused to an amino-terminally deleted version of the lacZ gene.

PAX6 mutations: genotype-phenotype correlations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
BACKGROUND: The PAX6 protein is a highly conserved transcriptional regulator that is important for normal ocular and neural development. In humans, heterozygous mutations of the PAX6 gene cause aniridia (absence of the iris) and related developmental eye

Characterization of a second open reading frame in genome segment 10 of bluetongue virus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Viruses have often evolved overlapping reading frames in order to maximise their coding capacity. Until recently, the segmented double-stranded (ds) RNA genome of viruses of the Orbivirus genus was thought to be monocistronic but the identification of ...

Long Open Reading Frame Transcripts Escape Nonsense-Mediated mRNA Decay in Yeast

open access: yesCell Reports, 2014
Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) destabilizes eukaryotic transcripts with long 3′ UTRs. To investigate whether other transcript features affect NMD, we generated yeast strains expressing chromosomal-derived mRNAs with 979 different promoter and open ...

Expression of the murine cytomegalovirus glycoprotein H by recombinant vaccinia virus [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The sequence of the gene encoding glycoprotein H (gH) of murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV) strain Smith was determined and compared with the sequence of the gH of MCMV strain K181. Transcriptional analysis showed that gH is encoded by a large mRNA of 5.0 kb,

Identification and characterization of a novel non-structural protein of bluetongue virus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Bluetongue virus (BTV) is the causative agent of a major disease of livestock (bluetongue). For over two decades, it has been widely accepted that the 10 segments of the dsRNA genome of BTV encode for 7 structural and 3 non-structural proteins.

ORFeus: a computational method to detect programmed ribosomal frameshifts and other non-canonical translation events

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2023
Background In canonical protein translation, ribosomes initiate translation at a specific start codon, maintain a single reading frame throughout elongation, and terminate at the first in-frame stop codon.
