Selenoprotein synthesis requires the reinterpretation of a UGA stop codon as one that encodes selenocysteine (Sec), a process that requires a set of dedicated translation factors. Among the mammalian selenoproteins, Selenoprotein P (SELENOP) is unique as it contains a selenocysteine-rich domain that requires multiple Sec incorporation events.
In this review we elaborate on new data and current models that provide insight into how SELENOP is made.
SELENOP synthesis requires a specific set of factors and conditions.
As the key protein required for proper selenium distribution, SELENOP stands out as a lynchpin selenoprotein that is essential for male fertility, proper neurologic function and selenium metabolism.
硒蛋白的合成需要将UGA终止密码子重新解读为编码硒代半胱氨酸(Sec)的密码子,这一过程需要一组特定的翻译因子。在哺乳动物硒蛋白中,硒蛋白P(SELENOP)是独特的,因为它含有一个富含硒代半胱氨酸的结构域,需要多个硒代半胱氨酸掺入事件。
在本综述中,我们详细阐述了有助于深入了解SELENOP如何合成的新数据和当前模型。
SELENOP的合成需要一组特定的因子和条件。
作为硒正确分布所需的关键蛋白质,SELENOP作为一种关键的硒蛋白脱颖而出,对男性生育能力、正常神经功能和硒代谢至关重要。
