Recombination, meiotic expression and human codon usage
Synonymous codon usage (SCU) varies widely among human genes. In particular, genes involved in different functional categories display a distinct codon usage, which was interpreted as evidence that SCU is adaptively constrained to optimize translation efficiency in distinct cellular states. We demonstrate here that SCU is not driven by constraints on tRNA abundance, but by large-scale variation...
متن کاملCodon usage and gene expression.
The hypothesis that codon usage regulates gene expression at the level of translation is tested. Codon usage of Escherichia coli and phage lambda is compared by correspondence analysis, and the basis of this hypothesis is examined by connecting codon and tRNA distributions to polypeptide elongation kinetics. Both approaches indicate that if codon usage was random tRNA limitation would only affe...
متن کاملP-128: Optimization of Human LH Gene Expression by Codon Usage Adaptation in CHO Cell Line
a:4:{s:10:"Background";s:897:"Human luteinizing hormone (hLH) belongs to glycoprotein hormones which is composed of two non-covalently linked subunit, α and β. The α-subunit is similar in all glycoprotein hormones, whereas the β-subunit is conferring the hormonal specificity. This hormone has important roles in the growth and maturity of sexual organs and secondary sexual characteristics and st...
متن کاملTissue-specific codon usage and the expression of human genes.
A diverse array of mechanisms regulate tissue-specific protein levels. Most research, however, has focused on the role of transcriptional regulation. Here we report systematic differences in synonymous codon usage between genes selectively expressed in six adult human tissues. Furthermore, we show that the codon usage of brain-specific genes has been selectively preserved throughout the evoluti...
متن کاملMeiotic Recombination in Human Oocytes
Studies of human trisomies indicate a remarkable relationship between abnormal meiotic recombination and subsequent nondisjunction at maternal meiosis I or II. Specifically, failure to recombine or recombination events located either too near to or too far from the centromere have been linked to the origin of human trisomies. It should be possible to identify these abnormal crossover configurat...
