Five TGA “stop” codons occur within the translated sequence of the yeast mitochondrial gene for cytochrome <i>c</i> oxidase subunit II

Thomas D. Fox

A mitochondrial mutation that genetically maps in the middle of the gene coding cytochrome c oxidase subunit II has been found to be a single-base-pair deletion. Three independe...

Use of the UGA terminator as a tryptophan codon in yeast mitochondria.

We propose that the UGA terminator regularly occurs as a tryptophan codon in yeast mitochondrial DNA. This conclusion is based on the sequence analysis of mitochondrial DNA regi...

Analysis of an almost complete mammalian mitochondrial DNA sequence has identified 23 possible tRNA genes and we speculate here that these are sufficient to translate all the co...
