Selenocysteine Insertion Sequence Binding Protein 2L Is Implicated as a Novel Post-Transcriptional Regulator of Selenoprotein Expression

The amino acid selenocysteine (Sec) is encoded by UGA codons. Recoding of UGA from stop to Sec requires a Sec insertion sequence (SECIS) element in the 3′ UTR of selenoprotein mRNAs. SECIS binding protein 2 (SBP2) binds the SECIS element and is essential for Sec incorporation into the nascent peptid...
