Selenoprotein: Potential Player in Redox Regulation in <i>Chlamydomonas reinhardtii</i>
Selenium (Se) is an essential micro-element for many organisms, including <i>Chlamydomonas reinhardtii</i>, and is required in trace amounts. It is obtained from the 21st amino acid selenocysteine (Sec, U), genetically encoded by the UGA codon. Proteins containing Sec are known as seleno...
