Every living cell must interpret its genetic code - a sequence of chemical letters that governs countless cellular functions.

To overcome the inherent challenge of translation termination interference caused by stop codon reprogramming in mammalian ...

During protein synthesis, or translation, genetic information transcribed in the cell's mRNA directs the stringing together ...

The way they made lemonade — ignoring a stop codon — has only previously been reported in viruses, the researchers say. This adaptation could have implications for human health.

A glimpse into nature's looking glass -- to find the genetic code is reassigned: Stop codon varies widely Date: May 22, 2014 Source: DOE/Joint Genome Institute Summary: It has long been assumed ...

As an example, the codon CGA instructs a tRNA to transfer the amino acid arginine to the ribosome. A common genetic mutation converts CGA to UGA, turning an arginine codon into a premature stop codon.

Alltrna has raised another $109 million in a series B to fund the Flagship Pioneering biotech's mission to "stop codon disease" with potential benefits for a range of genetic diseases caused by ...
