Abstract excerpt
Translating ribosomes bypass a 50 nucleotide coding gap in bacteriophage T4 gene 60 mRNA between codons 46 and 47 in order to synthesize the full-length protein. Bypassing of the coding gap requires peptidyl-tRNA2Gly detachment from a GGA codon (codon 46) followed by re-pairing at a matching GGA codon just before codon 47. Using negative selection, based on the sacB gene from Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli...
