The functional readthrough extension of malate dehydrogenase reveals a modification of the genetic code

open access: yes, 2016
Translational readthrough gives rise to C-terminally extended proteins, thereby providing the cell with new protein isoforms. These may have different properties from the parental proteins if the extensions contain functional domains.

Different stop codon usage in two pseudohypotrich ciliates [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Letters, 2001
Based on rRNA phylogeny, morphologic and morphogenetic characters, two major groups of hypotrich ciliates can be distinguished: euhypotrichs and pseudohypotrichs. Through the sequencing of actin genes, we show here that, interestingly, the pseudohypotrichs Dyophrys sp. and Euplotes vannus have a different stop codon usage. In fact, the stop codon usage

Rapid screening of staphylokinase protein variants using an unpurified cell‐free expression system

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
An unpurified cell‐free protein synthesis (CFPS) platform enables rapid functional screening of staphylokinase variants. Direct plasminogen‐activation assays performed in microplate format provide real‐time activity readouts, allowing rapid identification and ranking of variants with improved or reduced fibrinolytic activity without protein ...

Chirality in a quaternionic representation of the genetic code [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A quaternionic representation of the genetic code, previously reported by the authors, is updated in order to incorporate chirality of nucleotide bases and amino acids.

YIPFα1A expression is regulated by multilayered molecular mechanisms

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
YIPFα1A, a five‐pass Golgi protein, is regulated at multiple layers. (1) Rare‐codon enrichment drives translation‐coupled mRNA decay. (2) A proximal 3′‐UTR element stabilizes mRNA. (3) A distal 3′‐UTR element included by alternate poly(A) site usage represses translation, which can be overridden by the proximal 3′‐UTR element.

On the origin of the mitochondrial genetic code: Towards a unified mathematical framework for the management of genetic information [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The origin of the genetic code represents one of the most challenging problems in molecular evolution. The genetic code is an important universal feature of extant organisms and indicates a common ancestry of different forms of life on earth.

Molecular dynamics simulations of positively selected codons in FcγRI reveal novel biochemical binding properties

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Evolutionary analysis across 32 placental mammals identified positive selection at residues H148 and W149 in the immune receptor FcγR1. Ancestral reconstruction combined with molecular dynamics simulations reveals how these mutations may influence receptor structure and dynamics, providing insight into the evolution of antibody recognition and immune ...

REPARATION : ribosome profiling assisted (re-)annotation of bacterial genomes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Prokaryotic genome annotation is highly dependent on automated methods, as manual curation cannot keep up with the exponential growth of sequenced genomes.

Super‐Refractory Status Epilepticus (SRSE) in a Patient With Compound Heterozygous OPA1 Variants: Case Report and Literature Review

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Super‐Refractory Status Epilepticus (SRSE) is a rare, life‐threatening neurological emergency with unclear etiology in many cases. Mitochondrial dysfunction, often due to disease‐causing genetic variants, is increasingly recognized as a cause, with each gene producing distinct pathophysiological mechanisms.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Pontia edusa (Lepidoptera: Pieridae)

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2021
The complete mitochondrial genome of Pontia edusa was sequenced and analyzed in the study. The length of the complete mitogenome is 15,125 bp, including 37 genes and a control region.
