Tissue-Specific Regulation of Translational Readthrough Tunes Functions of the Traffic Jam Transcription Factor
2020-12-04
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> Translational readthrough (TR) occurs when the ribosome decodes a stop codon as a sense codon, resulting in two protein isoforms synthesized from the same mRNA. TR is pervasive in eukaryotic organisms; however, its biological significance remains unclear. In this study, we quantify the TR potential of several candidate genes in Drosophila melanogaster and characterize the regulation of TR in the...
