The yeast pyruvate kinase gene does not contain a string of non- preferred codons: Revised nucleotide sequence

TLDR
The revised sequence demonstrates that the yeast pyruvate kinase gene does not have a cluster of non‐preferred codons, and that it therefore is not an example of the class of genes which possibly exhibit translational control by the presence of non-pre preferred codons.

Ribosome‐mediated translational pause and protein domain organization

T. A. Thanaraj, +1 more

TL;DR: Examination of available mutagenic data indicated that the effects of some of the reported mutations were consistent with the hypothesis that the kinetics of translation influence the folding events in the growing nascent polypeptide chain.

Characterization of a glucose-repressed pyruvate kinase (Pyk2p) in Saccharomyces cerevisiae that is catalytically insensitive to fructose-1,6-bisphosphate.

TL;DR: Overexpression of the YOR347c/PYK2 gene on a multicopy vector restored growth on glucose of a yeast pyruvate kinase 1 (pyk1) mutant strain and could completely substitute for the PYK1-encoded enzymatic activity.

Improved Estimation of Secondary Structure in Ribonucleic Acids

TL;DR: This method can be used for predicting and assessing possible secondary structures for recently determined RNA sequences and new experimental and theoretical results allow us to improve the method, without making it more complicated.

The M1- and M2-type isozymes of rat pyruvate kinase are produced from the same gene by alternative RNA splicing.

TL;DR: It is concluded that the M1- and M2-type isozymes of pyruvate kinase are produced from the same gene probably by alternative RNA splicing.

Redesigning enzyme structure by site-directed mutagenesis: tyrosyl tRNA synthetase and ATP binding

TL;DR: A general method for systematically replacing amino acids in an enzyme is described, which allows analysis of their molecular roles in substrate binding or catalysis and could eventually lead to the engineering of new enzymatic activities.
