The 'polysemous' codon--a codon with multiple amino acid assignment caused by dual specificity of tRNA identity.
In some Candida species, the universal CUG leucine codon is translated as serine. However, in most cases, the serine tRNAs responsible for this non-universal decoding (tRNA(Ser)CAG) accept in vitro not only serine, but also, to some extent, leucine. Nucleotide replacement experiments indicated that...
