Multiple RNA structures affect translation initiation and UGA redefinition efficiency during synthesis of selenoprotein P

Gene-specific expansion of the genetic code allows for UGA codons to specify the amino acid selenocysteine (Sec). A striking example of UGA redefinition occurs during translation of the mRNA coding for the selenium transport protein, selenoprotein P (SELENOP), which in vertebrates may contain up to...
