A novel insight into the mechanism of mammalian selenoprotein synthesis

The amino acid selenocysteine is encoded by UGA, usually a stop codon, thus requiring a specialized machinery to enable its incorporation into selenoproteins. The machinery comprises the tRNA(Sec), a 3′-UTR mRNA stem–loop termed SElenoCysteine Insertion Sequence (SECIS), which is mandatory for recod...
