Translation of the UGA triplet in vitro by tryptophan transfer RNA's

Reads0
Chats0
TLDR
Purified tRNATrp stimulates lysozyme synthesis 30-fold above the level seen when comparable amounts of tryptophan tRNA from the non-suppressing strain, CA244, were added; it also translates poly(U-G-A) as polytryptophan more efficiently than the su− tRNA.

The 3′-Terminal Sequence of Escherichia coli 16S Ribosomal RNA: Complementarity to Nonsense Triplets and Ribosome Binding Sites

TL;DR: It is suggested that this region of the RNA is able to interact with mRNA and that the 3'-terminal U-U-A(OH) is involved in the termination of protein synthesis through base-pairing with terminator codons.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structural insights into translational fidelity

TL;DR: A large body of data on the effect of antibiotics and mutations on translational fidelity is explained, such as the mechanism of activation of GTP hydrolysis by EF-Tu, and the relationship between decoding and frameshifting.

A different genetic code in human mitochondria

TL;DR: Comparison of the human mitochrondrial DNA sequence of the cytochrome oxidase subunit II gene and the sequence of a corresponding beef heart protein shows that UGA is used as a tryptophan codon and not as a termination codon, and suggests that AU A may be a methionine and not an isoleucine codon.

A simple efficient liquid scintillator for counting aqueous solutions in a liquid scintillation counter

TL;DR: A modification of the naphthalene-dioxane-PPO liquid scintillator has been described which will allow up to 3.0 ml of an aqueous solution to be counted as mentioned in this paper.

Rna codewords and protein synthesis. the effect of trinucleotides upon the binding of srna to ribosomes.

TL;DR: Property of the codeword recognition process and the minimum oligonucleotide chain length required to induce such interactions are presented, and the modification of RNA and DNA codewords, converting sense into missense or nonsense codewording, is suggested as a possible regulatory mechanism in protein synthesis.

Tryptophan transfer RNA as the UGA suppressor.

TL;DR: It is concluded that UGA suppression is carried out by a tRNATrp whose anticodon-codon recognition is altered by a change elsewhere in the molecule.
