Computational identification of the selenocysteine tRNA (tRNA(Sec)) in genomes

Selenocysteine (Sec) is known as the 21st amino acid, a cysteine analogue with selenium replacing sulphur. Sec is inserted co-translationally in a small fraction of proteins called selenoproteins. In selenoprotein genes, the Sec specific tRNA (tRNA(Sec)) drives the recoding of highly specific UGA co...
