Regulation of mRNA translation offers the opportunity to diversify the expression and
abundance of proteins made from individual gene products in cells, tissues and organisms …

Unraveling the molecular mechanisms governing long-term synaptic plasticity is a key to
understanding how the brain stores information in neural circuits and adapts to a changing …

mRNA translation decodes nucleotide into amino acid sequences. However, translation has
also been shown to affect mRNA stability depending on codon composition in model …

Animals are biological transformers of dietary matter and energy to produce high-quality
foods and wools for human consumption and use. Mammals, birds, fish, and shrimp require …

Following its predecessor, the second edition of Amino Acids: Biochemistry and Nutrition
presents exhaustive coverage of amino acids in the nutrition, metabolism and health of …

Heterozygous mutations in six transfer RNA (tRNA) synthetase genes cause Charcot-Marie-
Tooth (CMT) peripheral neuropathy. CMT mutant tRNA synthetases inhibit protein synthesis …

Steady-state protein abundance is set by four rates: transcription, translation, mRNA decay
and protein decay. A given protein abundance can be obtained from infinitely many …

Cell survival in changing environments requires appropriate regulation of gene expression,
including translational control. Multiple stress signaling pathways converge on several key …

The expansion of the GGGGCC hexanucleotide repeat in the non-coding region of the
Chromosome 9 open-reading frame 72 (C9orf72) gene is the most common genetic cause …

In this review, we provide an overview of protein synthesis in the yeast Saccharomyces
cerevisiae. The mechanism of protein synthesis is well conserved between yeast and other …
