Evolutionary history of selenocysteine incorporation from the perspective of SECIS binding proteins
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The co-translational incorporation of selenocysteine into nascent polypeptides by recoding the UGA stop codon occurs in all domains of life. In eukaryotes, this event requires at least three specific factors: SECIS binding protein 2...
