TRNA3
Transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules contain various post-transcriptional modifications that are crucial for tRNA stability, translation efficiency, and fidelity. (mdpi.com)
Besides their canonical roles in translation, tRNAs also originate tRNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs), a class of small non-coding RNAs with regulatory functions ranging from translation regulation to gene expression control and cellular stress response. (mdpi.com)

Amino acids9
Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. (pressbooks.pub)
There are 20 different amino acids making up the subunits of proteins (Table 1). (pressbooks.pub)
All proteins are made from differing combinations of the amino acids (Figure 2). (pressbooks.pub)
Therefore, if you are going to make proteins you need to either make amino acids first (Figure 3) or consume amino acids in your diet. (pressbooks.pub)
Proteins are polypeptides of different amino acids. (pressbooks.pub)
Proteins or polypeptides are made by connecting amino acids together with peptide bonds. (pressbooks.pub)
ii)Frameshift mutation occurs where addition/insertion or deletion of one or two bases changes the reading frame from the site of mutation, resulting in a protein with a different set of amino acids. (infinitylearn.com)
Insertion or deletion of three of its multiples of bases do not alter the reading frame but one/more amino acids are coded in the protein translated. (infinitylearn.com)
The review also outlines the vast applications of UBPs as novel information storage components as well as in creation of semi-synthetic organisms expressing non canonical amino acids, high affinity aptamer generation, PCR based diagnostics and sitespecific labelling of RNAs. (fortuneonline.org)

Ribosomal2
Plastid-specific ribosomal proteins (PSRPs) have been proposed to play roles in the light-dependent regulation of chloroplast translation. (cipsm.de)

Pentose1
More importantly, most maize genes encoding lipid-related transcription factors, triacylglycerol (TAG) biosynthetic enzymes, pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) and Calvin Cycle proteins were not regulated during seed oil synthesis, despite the presence of many homologs in the maize genome.

The heterochromatin-enriched HP1 proteins play a critical role in regulation of transcription. (cipsm.de)
Chemical or genetic engineering of proteins provides great potential to study protein function and pharmacology or to generate proteins with novel properties. (biorxiv.org)
Peptide1
The latter facilitates the simultaneous use of two orthogonal split inteins within the same peptide or protein, an approach termed tandem protein trans-splicing (tPTS). (biorxiv.org)
Gene expression1
Understanding gene expression thus requires an examination of two processes, the activation of gene expression to make a "message" and the reading of this message to build a specific protein. (pressbooks.pub)
Modifications1
Semi-synthetic approaches offer an alternative means to manipulate proteins post-translationally, but these modifications have typically been performed in vitro 3 - 8 . (biorxiv.org)
Function5
Understand the concept of protein structure and its relation to protein function. (pressbooks.pub)
All these properties and others affect how each amino acid contributes to the structure and function of a mature protein. (pressbooks.pub)
Protein conformation is critically linked to function and often controlled by interactions with regulatory factors. (cipsm.de)
Manipulation of proteins by chemical modification is a powerful way to decipher their function or harness that function for therapeutic purposes. (biorxiv.org)
We insert synthetic peptides into proteins of interest via tandem protein trans-splicing using two orthogonal split intein pairs and validate our approach by investigating different aspects of GFP, Na V 1.5 and P2X2 receptor function. (biorxiv.org)
Native1
This assembly results in a spontaneous, essentially traceless splicing reaction that covalently links the two flanking protein segments through native chemical ligation 9 . (biorxiv.org)
Methods2
These methods dramatically increase the likelihood of producing proteins that cannot fold or assemble appropriately. (cipsm.de)
Because the approach can introduce virtually any chemical modification into both intracellular and extracellular regions of target proteins, we anticipate that it will overcome some of the drawbacks of other semi-synthetic or ribosome-dependent methods to engineer proteins. (biorxiv.org)

Some tRNAs contain a fifth stem-loop named extra arm, which is located in the RNA sequence between the anticodon stem and the T stem [ 5 ]. (biomedcentral.com)
Transfer RNAs (tRNAs) convert the nucleotide chemistry (mRNA) into a peptide alphabet (protein). (biomedcentral.com)
Emerging knowledge regarding the ways tRNAs read synonymous codons has altered the view of synonymous SNVs, which have been historically considered inconsequential for protein folding and function as they change the codon but not the encoded amino acid. (biomedcentral.com)

We aim to name protein-coding genes based on a key normal function of the gene product. (bioscience.org)
Where possible, related genes are named using a common root symbol to enable grouping, typically based on sequence homology, shared function or membership of protein complexes. (bioscience.org)
We name non-coding RNA (ncRNA) genes according to their RNA type, please see our recent review ( https://www.embopress.org/doi/full/10.15252/embj.2019103777 ) for a full description. (bioscience.org)
