TLDR
In the posterior part of the silk gland of Bombyx mori L., a linear correlation is found between the amino acid distribution of the fibroin and the corresponding tRNAs acylated during the secretion phase.

Correlation Between the Abundance of Escherichia Coli Transfer RNAs and the Occurrence of the Respective Codons in Its Protein Genes: A Proposal for a Synonymous Codon Choice That Is Optimal for the E. Coli Translational System

TL;DR: The finding that the frequency of usage of optimal codons is closely correlated with the production levels of individual genes was discussed from an evolutionary viewpoint.

Codon usage in bacteria: correlation with gene expressivity

TL;DR: Analysis of genetic code usage in the 83 sequenced genes of the Escherichia coli genome is presented, taking into account new data on gene expressivity and regulation as well as iso-tRNA specificity and cellular concentration.

Correlation between the abundance of yeast transfer RNAs and the occurrence of the respective codons in protein genes: Differences in synonymous codon choice patterns of yeast and Escherichia coli with reference to the abundance of isoaccepting transfer RNAs

TL;DR: Clear correlations between predictions and the actual preferences among synonymous codons were revealed, indicating that the codon choices in yeast genes are also constrained by a combination of tRNA availability and nature of its codon recognition.

Isolation and identification of the messenger RNA for silk fibroin from Bombyx mori.

TL;DR: Results as well as the analysis of minor components of RNase T 1 digest and the oligonucleotides produced by pancreatic RNase have unequivocally identified this RNA as the fibroin mRNA.

Estrogen-induced synthesis of yolk proteins in roosters

TL;DR: It is suggested that committed cells can synthesize vitellogenin mRNA only during a certain period of the cell cycle and the "memory" effect of estradiol is observed, which probably is due to'commitment or differentiation of viteLLogenin-synthesizing cells.

Fractionation of amino acid-specific s-RNA from silkgland by methylated albumin column chromatography.

TL;DR: Silkgland s-RNA markedly incorporated glycine, alanine, tyrosine and serine, but lysine, leucine, methionine and phenylalanine to a lesser extent, and corresponded in elution characteristics with the corresponding fractions from E. coli.

TL;DR: Partition of transfer ribonucleic (tRNA) acids from baker's yeast and calf liver and six yeast tRNAs have been determined at four temperatures (0, 10, 20, and 30°), at three pH (6.6, 7.0, and 8.0) in the following solvent system: potassium phosphate buffer 1.5 M−2methoxyethanol−2-butoxy-ethanol (300:100:30-130, by vol. as mentioned in this paper ).
