Long noncoding RNA SOX2-OT facilitates laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma development by epigenetically inhibiting PTEN via methyltransferase EZH2.

abstract：:For 8 years, it was not understood why certain genes of plant mitochondria contain CGG (arginine) codons at positions where tryptophan codons (UGG) are present in the corresponding genes of nonplant species. Identification and sequencing of a tRNA(Trp) gene showed that it is not able to decode the CGG codon. Analysis ...
