Q

a true stop codon does not function as a stop codon bc of features in the mRNA that encourage misreading at that loaction by a regular aatRNA

Q

stop codon for MuLV and anticodon and what aa is used

Q

how is selenocysteine meade

A

using a tRNAsec charged with serine by SerRS and converted using selenocysteine synthase

brought by SelBwhich is like EFTu and recognizes SECIS stem loop

16
Q

selenocysteine in euk

A

SBP2 binds to the SECIS loop and eEFSec brings the sectRNAsec tot he ribosome

17
Q

where is pyrolysine found

A

in the active site of methyl transferase enzymes in some methane producing bacteria and not found in humans,

REQUIRED FOR CATALASYS IN THOSE ENZYMES

18
Q

pyrolyssien anticodon

A

5’-CUA-3’

19
Q

pyrolyssine is made how

A

PylRS and its own tRNA

20
Q

how can we use the pyrrolysine tRNA synthase tRNA pair

A

genetically encodes a plethora of noncanonical AA through stop codon reassignment

21
Q

what uses frameshift mutations

A

rous sarcoma virus to synthesize Gagpol protein

22
Q

gagpol synthesis through frameshifts

A

90% produces Gag through UGA stop
10% produces gagpol due to -1 frameshift due to pseudoknot- slippery- AAU pairs with UUA(normal) or UUU (-1)
