  1. 1. The Kluyveromyces lactis killer toxin is a transfer RNA endonuclease

    Author : Jian Lu; Anders Byström; Leif Kirsebom; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : Molecular biology; K. lactis γ-toxin; tRNA endonuclease; modified nucleosides; 5-methoxycarbonylmethyl-2-thiouridine; 5-methylaminomethyl-2-thiouridine; anticodon stem loop; Molekylärbiologi; molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biology;

    Abstract : Killer strains of the yeast Kluyveromyces lactis secrete a heterotrimeric protein toxin (zymocin) to inhibit the growth of sensitive yeasts. The cytotoxicity of zymocin resides in the γ subunit (γ-toxin), however the mechanism of cytotoxicity caused by γ-toxin was previously unknown. READ MORE

  2. 2. Function of wobble nucleoside modifications in tRNAs of Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhimurium

    Author : Peng Chen; Glenn R. Björk; Paul Agris; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Molecular biology; tRNA; wobble nucleoside; frameshifting; translation; Molekylärbiologi; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi; molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biology;

    Abstract : Transfer RNA from all organisms has modified nucleosides and position 34 (the wobble position) is one of the most extensively modified positions. Some wobble nucleoside modifications restrict codon choice (e.g. 5-methylaminomethyl-2-thiouridine, mnm5s2U) while some extend the decoding capacity (e. READ MORE
