New insights into the incorporation of natural suppressor tRNAs at stop codons in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

S Blanchet, D Cornu, M Argentini… - Nucleic acids …, 2014 - academic.oup.com
Stop codon readthrough may be promoted by the nucleotide environment or drugs. In such
cases, ribosomes incorporate a natural suppressor tRNA at the stop codon, leading to the …

Deciphering the reading of the genetic code by near-cognate tRNA

S Blanchet, D Cornu, I Hatin… - Proceedings of the …, 2018 - National Acad Sciences
Some codons of the genetic code can be read not only by cognate, but also by near-cognate
tRNAs. This flexibility is thought to be conferred mainly by a mismatch between the third …

Factors influencing readthrough therapy for frequent cystic fibrosis premature termination codons

I Pranke, L Bidou, N Martin, S Blanchet… - ERJ open …, 2018 - Eur Respiratory Soc
Premature termination codons (PTCs) are generally associated with severe forms of genetic
diseases. Readthrough of in-frame PTCs using small molecules is a promising therapeutic …

New insights into stop codon recognition by eRF1

S Blanchet, M Rowe, T Von der Haar… - Nucleic Acids …, 2015 - academic.oup.com
In eukaryotes, translation termination is performed by eRF1, which recognizes stop codons
via its N-terminal domain. Many previous studies based on point mutagenesis, cross-linking …

Yeast translation elongation factor eEF3 promotes late stages of tRNA translocation
