Bioinformatic Prediction of an tRNA<sup>Sec</sup> Gene Nested inside an Elongation Factor SelB Gene in Alphaproteobacteria
In bacteria, selenocysteine (Sec) is incorporated into proteins via the recoding of a particular codon, the UGA stop codon in most cases. Sec-tRNA<sup>Sec</sup> is delivered to the ribosome by the Sec-dedicated elongation factor SelB that also recognizes a Sec-insertion sequence element...
