Expression of Selenoproteins Is Maintained in Mice Carrying Mutations in SECp43, the tRNA Selenocysteine 1 Associated Protein (Trnau1ap). [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Selenocysteine tRNA 1 associated protein (Trnau1ap) has been characterized as a tRNA[Ser]Sec-binding protein of 43 kDa, hence initially named SECp43. Previous studies reported its presence in complexes containing tRNA[Ser]Sec implying a role of SECp43 as

Relaxation of selective constraints causes independent selenoprotein extinction in insect genomes. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2008
BACKGROUND: Selenoproteins are a diverse family of proteins notable for the presence of the 21st amino acid, selenocysteine. Until very recently, all metazoan genomes investigated encoded selenoproteins, and these proteins had therefore been believed to ...

Increases in Hepatokine Selenoprotein P Levels Are Associated With Hepatic Hypoperfusion and Predict Adverse Prognosis in Patients With Heart Failure

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2022
Background Although multiorgan networks are involved in the pathophysiology of heart failure (HF), interactions of the heart and the liver have not been fully understood.

The algal selenoproteomes

BMC Genomics, 2020
Background Selenium is an essential trace element, and selenocysteine (Sec, U) is its predominant form in vivo. Proteins that contain Sec are selenoproteins, whose special structural features include not only the TGA codon encoding Sec but also the SECIS

Pituitary and liver selenoprotein transcriptome profiles of grazing steers and their sensitivity to the form of selenium in vitamin-mineral mixes

Frontiers in Animal Science, 2022
Many supplemental Se-dependent metabolic effects are mediated through the function of selenoproteins. The full complement and relative abundance of selenoproteins expressed by highly metabolic cattle tissues have not been characterized in cattle.

Tandem use of selenocysteine: Adaptation of a selenoprotein glutaredoxin for reduction of selenoprotein methionine sulfoxide reductase [PDF]

, 2021
Several engineered selenocysteine (Sec)-containing glutaredoxins (Grxs) and their enzymatic properties have been reported, but natural selenoprotein Grxs have not been previously characterized.

Evaluation of Selenoprotein Supplementation on Digestibility, Growth, and Health Performance of Pacific White Shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei

Aquaculture Nutrition, 2023
Selenoprotein is a feed additive that can overcome oxidative stress in intensive Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) culture. This study evaluated the effects of selenoprotein supplementation at various doses on Pacific white shrimp’s ...

The expression of essential selenoproteins during development requires SECIS-binding protein 2–like

Life Science Alliance, 2022
This work reveals that the Sbp2 paralogue, Secisbp2-like, is required for selective selenoprotein synthesis when the function of Sbp2 is compromised. The dietary requirement for selenium is based on its incorporation into selenoproteins, which contain ...

Selenium regulation of selenoprotein enzyme activity and transcripts in a pilot study with Founder strains from the Collaborative Cross. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
Rodents and humans have 24-25 selenoproteins, and these proteins contain the 21st amino acid, selenocysteine, incorporated co-translationally into the peptide backbone in a series of reactions dependent on at least 6 unique gene products. In selenium (Se)
