A High-Throughput Assay for In Vitro Determination of Release Factor-Dependent Peptide Release from a Pretermination Complex by Fluorescence Anisotropy—Application to Nonsense Suppressor Screening and Mechanistic Studies

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2023
Premature termination codons (PTCs) account for ~12% of all human disease mutations. Translation readthrough-inducing drugs (TRIDs) are prominent among the several therapeutic approaches being used to overcome PTCs.

Features of readthrough genes.

open access: yes, 2016
A: Scatterplot comparing readthrough and expression, including only those genes that passed the filters (see bioinformatics methods in supplementary information for description of filters).

Evidence of efficient stop codon readthrough in four mammalian genes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Stop codon readthrough is used extensively by viruses to expand their gene expression. Until recent discoveries in Drosophila, only a very limited number of readthrough cases in chromosomal genes had been reported.

Transcriptional Readthrough Interrupts Boundary Function in Drosophila

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023
In higher eukaryotes, distance enhancer-promoter interactions are organized by topologically associated domains, tethering elements, and chromatin insulators/boundaries. While insulators/boundaries play a central role in chromosome organization, the mechanisms regulating their functions are largely unknown.

Nonsense Suppression Therapy: An Emerging Treatment for Hereditary Skin Diseases

open access: yesActa Dermato-Venereologica, 2022
Nonsense mutations cause the premature termination of protein translation via premature termination codons (PTCs), leading to the synthesis of incomplete functional proteins and causing large numbers of genetic disorders.

Readthrough Bar Plot.

open access: yes, 2013
Percentage Readthrough is 100 times the ratio of Firefly luminescence (downstream reporter) to Renilla luminescence (upstream reporter), divided by this ratio for the full readthrough strain.

Biological mechanisms and pharmacological inducibility of translational readthrough.

open access: yes, 2021
Die Termination der Translation wird initiiert, wenn die A-Stelle des Ribosoms ein Stopcodon erreicht und Terminationsfaktoren mit dem Stopcodon interagieren.

Synergistic Rescue of Nonsense Mutant Tumor Suppressor p53 by Combination Treatment with Aminoglycosides and Mdm2 Inhibitors

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2018
The tumor suppressor gene TP53 is inactivated by mutation in a large fraction of human tumors. Around 10% of TP53 mutations are nonsense mutations that lead to premature termination of translation and expression of truncated unstable and non-functional ...

Multiple Localization by Functional Translational Readthrough

open access: yes, 2018
In a compartmentalized cell, correct protein localization is crucial for function of virtually all cellular processes. From the cytoplasm as a starting point, proteins are imported into organelles by specific targeting signals. Many proteins, however, act in more than one cellular compartment.

RNA‐centric world of retroviruses: unravelling the molecular strategies of genomic RNA packaging

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Retroviruses constitute a unique group of RNA viruses that have profoundly influenced both evolutionary trajectories and biomedical research. Their ability to reverse transcribe and integrate into host genomes has shaped genomic architecture across species and contributed to our understanding of oncogenes, gene regulation, and RNA biology ...
