A new study suggests genetic changes allow horses to produce more energy, while minimizing the toll the energy takes on cells ...

At first glance, it looked like a genetic error — so severe it should have crippled the animal. But instead, it helped turn ...

In preparing for their study, the researchers came across a premature stop codon in equine versions of the gene compared to other species. Located unusually early in the protein sequence, the stop ...

Discover how an emerging technology called tRNA therapy could become the next big thing in genetic disease treatment.

Consequently, the mutant protein is entirely different due to the deletion of the fourth nucleotide, and it is also shorter due to the appearance of a premature stop codon. This mutant protein ...

A genetic change that boosts a cell's aerobic capacity while also protecting it from excess stress could explain how horses became such powerful athletes, according to a new study in Science.

They also highlight how the recoding of a de novo stop codon – a strategy thought restricted to viruses – can facilitate adaptation in vertebrates. Long prized for their speed and endurance ...

The codons UAA, UAG, and UGA are the stop codons that signal the termination of translation. Figure 2 shows the 64 codon combinations and the amino acids or stop signals they specify. As ...

Each gene has usually two versions within the library: with and without stop codon. If you plan to make use of a vector containing C-terminal tags, select the version without stop codon. The MGC ...
