3S-DB identifies an RNA repository facilitating stop codon readthrough for selenocysteine insertion and selenoproteome expansion

open access: yesRedox Biology
Selenoproteins contain the selenocysteine (Sec, U), which is essential for redox regulation due to its reactive selenol group. The current set of 25 human selenoproteins was defined by the presence of SECIS elements in the 3’ UTR coupled with in-frame ...

Transcript-specific induction of stop codon readthrough using a CRISPR-dCas13 system

open access: yesEMBO Reports
Stop codon readthrough (SCR) is the process where translation continues beyond a stop codon on an mRNA. Here, we describe a strategy to enhance or induce SCR in a transcript-selective manner using a CRISPR-dCas13 system.

Therapeutic Nonsense Suppression Modalities: From Small Molecules to Nucleic Acid-Based Approaches

open access: yesBiomedicines
Nonsense mutations are genetic mutations that create premature termination codons (PTCs), leading to truncated, defective proteins in diseases such as cystic fibrosis, neurofibromatosis type 1, Dravet syndrome, Hurler syndrome, Beta thalassemia ...

RESCUING P53 BY NEW TRANSLATIONAL READTHROUGH INDUCING DRUGS

open access: yes
Nonsense mutations represent a distinct category of mutations, characterized by converting an amino acid coding triplet into a premature termination codon (PTC). This results in a notable reduction in cytosolic mRNA levels, ultimately leading to the premature halting of translation and the production of truncated and non-functional proteins.
