Evolution of selenium utilization traits
BACKGROUND: The essential trace element selenium is used in a wide variety of biological processes. Selenocysteine (Sec), the 21st amino acid, is co-translationally incorporated into a restricted set of proteins. It is encoded by an UGA codon with the help of tRNA(Sec )(SelC), Sec-specific elongatio...
