National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) · Definitions · 2019

A codon is a trinucleotide sequence of DNA or RNA that corresponds to a specific amino acid.T he genetic code describes the relationship between the sequence of DNA bases (A, C, G, and T ) in a gene and the corresponding protein sequence that it encodes.T he cell reads the sequence of the gene in groups of three bases.T here are 64 different codons: 61 specify amino acids while the remaining three are used as stop signals.

: The glossary contains definitions and (where needed) explanatory notes for about 400 terms used in the multidisciplinary field of bioinorganic chemistry. A need has been recognized for globally acceptable definitions of terms in this field and this glossary was compiled with the objective of fulfilling this need. It is by no means a comprehensive dictionary. The terms selected were those considered essential and/or widely used. The definitions given reflect current usage and complement IUPAC guidelines. Abbreviations and acronyms, frequently used in bioinorganic chemistry, are included.

Writing Scrapie's Coda, Codon by Codon?

Michael Balter · Science · 2000

Over the past decade, geneticists have begun to unravel why some sheep are more vulnerable than others to scrapie. They have found that different variations, or polymorphisms, in the gene coding for PrP—a cellular protein that many scientists believe becomes infectious when it converts to an abnormal form called a prion—seem to confer varying degrees of susceptibility. This correlation raises the possibility that genetically susceptible sheep could be bred out of the population, leaving only scrapie-resistant animals (see main text).

An extreme codon preference strategy: codon reassignment.

GB Andersson, C. G. Kurland · Molecular Biology and Evolution · 1991

We argue that in animal mitochondria codon reassignments, such as those for AGA and AGG from arginine to serine or of AUA from isoleucine to methionine, are the result of an interplay between biased mutational forces and selective ones. In particular, there is a marked tendency for animal mitochondria to have very small genomes and to minimize their investment in components required for gene expression. These tendencies are expressed as a reduction in the diversity of tRNA isoacceptor species. In our view, the pressure to simplify tRNA populations, together with mutational bias against certain codons, will account for the codon reassignments observed in animal mitochondria. A parallel to the major codon bias in microorganisms, which likewise tends to reduce the diversity of the tRNA isoacceptor populations under fast growth conditions, may be drawn. Therefore, we suggest that codon reassignments are usefully viewed as an extreme form of codon bias.
