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.

Human selenoprotein P and S variant mRNAs with different numbers of SECIS elements and inferences from mutant mice of the roles of multiple SECIS elements [PDF]
Dynamic redefinition of the 10 UGAs in human and mouse selenoprotein P (Sepp1) mRNAs to specify selenocysteine instead of termination involves two 3′ UTR structural elements (SECIS) and is regulated by selenium availability. In addition to the previously

Selenoprotein P in colitis-associated carcinoma [PDF]
Patients with inflammatory bowel disease are often deficient in micronutrients such as selenium and have an increased risk of colon cancer. We tested whether the selenium transport protein, selenoprotein P, could modify colitis-associated cancer. Our results indicate that global SEPP1 haploinsufficiency augments tumorigenesis and mediates oxidative ...

Direct Interaction between Selenoprotein P and Tubulin [PDF]
Selenium (Se), an essential trace element for human health, mainly exerts its biological function via selenoproteins. Among the 25 selenoproteins identified in human, selenoprotein P (SelP) is the only one that contains multiple selenocysteines (Sec) in the sequence, and has been suggested to function as a Se transporter.

Selenoprotein gene nomenclature [PDF]
The human genome contains 25 genes coding for selenocysteine-containing proteins (selenoproteins). These proteins are involved in a variety of functions, most notably redox homeostasis.

Domain structure of bi-functional selenoprotein P [PDF]
Human selenoprotein P (SeP), a selenium-rich plasma glycoprotein, is presumed to contain ten selenocysteine residues; one of which is located at the 40th residue in the N-terminal region and the remaining nine localized in the C-terminal third part.

Biomarkers of selenium status in dogs [PDF]
Background: Inadequate dietary selenium (Se) intake in humans and animals can lead to long term health problems, such as cancer. In view of the owner's desire for healthy longevity of companion animals, the impact of dietary Se provision on long term ...

Background Computational methods for identifying selenoproteins have been developed rapidly in recent years. However, it is still difficult to identify the open reading frame (ORF) of eukaryotic selenoprotein gene, because the TGA codon for a ...

Selenium status plays a major role in health impacts of various RNA viruses. We previously reported potential antisense interactions between viral mRNAs and host mRNAs encoding isoforms of the antioxidant selenoprotein thioredoxin reductase (TXNRD). Here,
