A Method for Identification of Selenoprotein Genes in Archaeal Genomes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The genetic codon UGA has a dual function: serving as a terminator and encoding selenocysteine. However, most popular gene annotation programs only take it as a stop signal, resulting in misannotation or completely missing selenoprotein genes.

Table_1_Alcohol Intake Is Associated With Elevated Serum Levels of Selenium and Selenoprotein P in Humans.docx [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Selenoprotein P is a hepatokine with antioxidative properties that eliminate a physiologic burst of reactive oxygen species required for intracellular signal transduction.

A Crystalline and Thermally Stable Selenocysteine Selenenic Acid

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
The long‐sought catalytic intermediate of selenoproteins, selenocysteine selenenic acid (Sec–SeOH), is isolated for the first time at ambient temperature. A bioinspired selenopeptide sequence encapsulated within a protective molecular cradle and an oxidant‐free route from selenenyl iodide (Sec–SeI) enable the isolation of Sec–SeOH. Contrary to the long‐

The Effect of tRNA[Ser]Sec Isopentenylation on Selenoprotein Expression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Transfer RNA[Ser]Sec carries multiple post-transcriptional modifications. The A37G mutation in tRNA[Ser]Sec abrogates isopentenylation of base 37 and has a profound effect on selenoprotein expression in mice. Patients with a homozygous pathogenic p.R323Q

Selenomethionine Regulates the Arachidonic Acid Metabolism‐Ferroptosis‐Inflammation Axis to Ameliorate Colitis

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Selenomethionine can ameliorate arachidonic acid‐induced colonic injury through synergistic mechanisms, including alleviating inflammatory responses, improving barrier integrity, enhancing antioxidant capacity by upregulating selenoprotein expression, selectively regulating AA metabolism to reduce pro‐inflammatory oxylipins and promote the production ...

Evolution of selenoproteins in the metazoan [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2012
Abstract Background The selenocysteine (Sec) containing proteins, selenoproteins, are an important group of proteins present throughout all 3 kingdoms of life. With the rapid progression of selenoprotein research in the post-genomic era, application of bioinformatics methods to the identification of selenoproteins in ...

Activation of the selenoprotein SEPS1 gene expression by pro-inflammatory cytokines in HepG2 cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
SEPS1 (also called selenoprotein S, SelS) plays an important role in the production of inflammatory cytokines and its expression is activated by endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress.

A Versatile Strategy to Reduce UGA-Selenocysteine Recoding Efficiency of the Ribosome Using CRISPR-Cas9-Viral-Like-Particles Targeting Selenocysteine-tRNA[Ser]Sec Gene

open access: yesCells, 2019
The translation of selenoprotein mRNAs involves a non-canonical ribosomal event in which an in-frame UGA is recoded as a selenocysteine (Sec) codon instead of being read as a stop codon.

Harnessing ferroptosis from multilayer defense networks to nanoplatforms for specific cancer therapy

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
Nanomaterials target metabolically‐regulated ferroptosis for cancer therapy. Iron‐based or alternative nanoplatforms integrate ferroptosis with chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or radiotherapy. They enable stimulus‐responsive therapies (photothermal, photodynamic, sonodynamic) activated by near‐infrared, light, or ultrasound, achieving potent synergistic ...
