Translation initiation factor eIF3 promotes programmed stop codon readthrough. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Programmed stop codon readthrough is a post-transcription regulatory mechanism specifically increasing proteome diversity by creating a pool of C-terminally extended proteins.

Therapeutics Based on Stop Codon Readthrough [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Genomics and Human Genetics, 2014
Nonsense suppression therapy encompasses approaches aimed at suppressing translation termination at in-frame premature termination codons (PTCs, also known as nonsense mutations) to restore deficient protein function. In this review, we examine the current status of PTC suppression as a therapy for genetic diseases caused by nonsense mutations.

Severe congenital microcephaly with AP4M1 mutation, a case report [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background: Autosomal recessive defects of either the B1, E1, M1 or S1 subunit of the Adaptor Protein complex-4 (AP4) are characterized by developmental delay, severe intellectual disability, spasticity, and occasionally mild to moderate microcephaly of ...

Repurposing tRNAs for nonsense suppression

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Here, the authors report de novo design, optimization and characterization of tRNAs that decode UGA stop codons in E. coli. The structure of the ribosome in a complex with the designed tRNA bound to a UGA stop codon suggests that distinct A-site ligands (

Influence of the combination of last sense codon and stop codon on expression efficiency of green fluorescent protein gene in Escherichia coli when the expression vector pKK223-3

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
In this paper, the influence of the combination of last sense codon and stop codon on expression efficiency was studied. By our study, for the last sense codon CCG, the RFI of GFP(CCG) was 2.1 fold when the stop codon was UAA, but in comparison, the RFI ...

An engineered Tetrahymena tRNA(Gln) for in vivo incorporation of unnatural amino acids into proteins by nonsense suppression [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
A new tRNA, THG73, has been designed and evaluated as a vehicle for incorporating unnatural amino acids site-specifically into proteins expressed in vivo using the stop codon suppression technique.

In Vitro Selection of mRNA Display Libraries Containing an Unnatural Amino Acid [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The incorporation of unnatural amino acid into selectable, amplifiable peptide and protein libraries expands the chemical diversity of such libraries, thus considerably facilitating the process of obtaining ligands with improved properties (affinity ...

Pyrrolysine Amber Stop‐Codon Suppression: Development and Applications [PDF]

open access: yesChemBioChem, 2017
AbstractThe pyrrolysine tRNA synthetase‐tRNA pair is probably one of the most promiscuous tRNA–synthetase pairs found in nature, capable of genetically encoding a plethora of noncanonical amino acids through stop codon reassignment. Proteins containing reactive handles, post‐translational modification mimics or both can be produced in practical ...

Stop-codon read-through arises largely from molecular errors and is generally nonadaptive.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2019
Stop-codon read-through refers to the phenomenon that a ribosome goes past the stop codon and continues translating into the otherwise untranslated region (UTR) of a transcript.
