Complete mitochondrial DNA sequence of the small hive beetle Aethina tumida (Insecta: Coleoptera) from Hawaii [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
We analyzed the complete mitochondrial genome of the small hive beetle Aethina tumida, a major honeybee pest that was accidentally transported to the Hawaii Islands, USA. The mitochondrial genome of A.

Stops making sense: translational trade-offs and stop codon reassignment [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2011
Abstract Background Efficient gene expression involves a trade-off between (i) premature termination of protein synthesis; and (ii) readthrough, where the ribosome fails to dissociate at the terminal stop. Sense codons that are similar in sequence to stop codons are more susceptible to nonsense mutation, and are also ...

The complete mitochondrial genome of large odorous frog, Odorrana graminea (Amphibia: Ranidae) and phylogenetic analysis

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020
The mitochondrial genome of Odorrana graminea was sequenced and analyzed. The complete mitochondrial genome is 18,106 bp in length, including 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 2 ribosomal RNA genes, 21 transfer RNA genes, and a control region (D-loop). All

Control of gene expression in the retrotransposon Tca2 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
BACKGROUND:In the C. albicans retrotransposon Tca2, the gag and pol ORFs are separated by a UGA stop codon, 3' of which is a potential RNA pseudoknot. It is unclear how the Tca2 gag UGA codon is bypassed to allow pol expression.

A tripeptide discriminator for stop codon recognition [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 2002
Only recently has it been established that a tripeptide in the bacterial release factors (RFs), RF1 and RF2, is responsible for the stop codon recognition. This functional mimic of the anticodon of tRNA is referred to as a tripeptide ‘anticodon’ or a tripeptide discriminator.

Ribosomal readthrough at a short UGA stop codon context triggers dual localization of metabolic enzymes in Fungi and animals. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2014
Translation of mRNA into a polypeptide chain is a highly accurate process. Many prokaryotic and eukaryotic viruses, however, use leaky termination of translation to optimize their coding capacity.

Circ-ZNF609 Is a Circular RNA that Can Be Translated and Functions in Myogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) constitute a family of transcripts with unique structures and still largely unknown functions. Their biogenesis, which proceeds via a back-splicing reaction, is fairly well characterized, whereas their role in the modulation of ...

Conservation of tandem stop codons in yeasts [PDF]

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2005
Abstract Background It has been long thought that the stop codon in a gene is followed by another stop codon that acts as a backup if the real one is read through by a near-cognate tRNA.

Mitochondrial genome analysis of Ectophasia roundiventris (Diptera, Tachinidae)

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2017
The mitochondrial genome of Ectophasia roundiventris (Loew, 1858), the first representative of subfamily Phasiinae, was sequenced and annotated. So far, there are four Tachinidae mitochondrial genomes, here, all of them are used in Neighbour-Join and ...

Evolution of the G+C content frontier in the rat cytomegalovirus genome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Within the 230138 bp of the rat cytomegalovirus (RCMV) genome, the G+C content changes abruptly at position 142644, constituting a G+C content frontier. To the left of this point, overall G+C content is 69.2%, and to the right it is only 47.6%.
