A T/C polymorphism in the GPX4 3′UTR affects the selenoprotein expression pattern and cell viability in transfected Caco-2 cells

BACKGROUND: Synthesis of selenoproteins such as glutathione peroxidases (GPx) requires a specific tRNA and a stem-loop structure in the 3′untranslated region (3′UTR) of the mRNA. A common single nucleotide polymorphism occurs in the GPX4 gene in a region corresponding to the 3′UTR. METHODS: The two...
