At the revolution with Fred Sherman.

Abstract:

:Fred Sherman was a prominent yeast geneticist and my mentor in graduate school. Fred passed away in September 2013 at the age of 81. In this minireview, I describe what it was like to know Fred and be in his lab from 1977 to 1982, the extraordinarily exciting time when the recombinant DNA revolution hit yeast genetics.

  • An upstream open reading frame and the context of the two AUG codons affect the abundance of mitochondrial and nuclear RNase H1.

    abstract::RNase H1 in mammalian cells is present in nuclei and mitochondria. Its absence in mitochondria results in embryonic lethality due to the failure to amplify mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). Dual localization to mitochondria and nuclei results from differential translation initiation at two in-frame AUGs (M1 and M27) of a sin...

When UGA decoding is inefficient, as occurs when selenium is limiting, termination occurs at these positions. Based on the...
