A spatula of powdered amino acid (100 mg) is shaken in water (3 mL) in a tube for some minutes. Complete dissolution is observed for 15 substances. For the other nine, which are sparingly or slightly ...

Table 1. Predictors and coefficients for model fit without SARS and Alphacoronavirus SC-2013 in both the codon frequency and RSCU representation. Another interesting feature of the top three ...

When they treated the cultures with synthetic tRNA that carried an easily traceable unconventional amino acid and recognized these rare codons, they found that the TCG triplet introduced the new ...

Amino acids are the building blocks that form polypeptides and ultimately proteins. Consequently, they are fundamental components of our bodies and vital for physiological functions such as protein ...

In this paper, we will review them and discuss novel approaches based on the principle that protein synthesis from individual genes can be modulated by codon usage bias manipulation. We will summarize ...
