Abstract excerpt
The efficiency of translation termination in yeast can vary several 100-fold, depending on the context around the stop codon. We performed a computer analysis designed to identify yeast open reading frames (ORFs) containing a readthrough motif surrounding the termination codon. Eight ORFs were found to display inefficient stop codon recognition, one of which, PDE2, encodes the high-affinity cAMP...
