Article Synopsis
- Premature stop codons (PSC), specifically TGA, TAA, and TAG, can occur in the second and third reading frames of protein-coding genes, with Deinococcus radiodurans showing a notable bias towards TGA.
- The study examined 72 bacterial species and found that the frequency of TGA usage increased with the chromosomal GC content, whereas TAG and TAA were less common in higher GC content situations.
- The patterns of PSC usage suggest that while TGA is favored, the presence of PSCs varies significantly across bacterial species, potentially influencing bacterial evolution and metabolic versatility.
