Gouw, Launce G.; McKenna, Catherine K.; Digre, Kathleen B.; Placek, Louis J. | Analysis of the dynamic mutation in the SCA7 gene shows marked parental effects on CAG repeat transmission. | The gene for spinocerebellar ataxia 7 (SCA7) includes a transcribed, translated CAG tract that is expanded in SCA7 patients. We have determined expansions in 73 individuals from 17 SCA7 kindreds and compared them with repeat lengths of 180 unaffected individuals. Subjects with abnormal expansions co... | Genetics; Biosynthesis; SCA7 Gene | 1998-03-07 |

Gesteland, Raymond F.; Ives, Jeffrey T.; Stockham, Thomas G. | Automated film reader for DNA sequencing based on homomorphic deconvolution | An automated reader for electrophoresis based DNA sequencing methods is described that provides fast and accurate sequence determination. Digitized sequencing lanes are processed with homomorphic blind deconvolution in preparation for peak detection, interlane alignment, peak refinement and base cal... | Sequence Analysis; Electrophoresis; Automated Film Reader; Homomorphic Deconvolution | 1994 |

Gesteland, Raymond F. | Characterization of lysozyme messenger and lysozyme synthesized in vitro | In vitro systems for protein systhesis have been in wide use for about 10 years. In most of the early work protein synthesis was measured by following the incorporation of radioactive amino acids into acid precipitable material. This test cannot distinguish between the synthesis of complete, activ... | Lysozyme Messenger; Lysozyme Synthesized; Protein Synthesis | 1969 |

Gesteland, Raymond F.; Krapcho, Karen J.; Talbot, Phil; Thulin, Craig | Crystallization of the MS2 translational repressor alone and complexed to bromouridine | The coat protein from the MS2 bacteriophage plays a dual role by encapsidating viral RNA and also by binding RNA as a translational repressor. In order to study the isolated dimer in a conformation not influenced by capsid interactions, a mutant molecule was crystallized that is defective in capsid ... | Crystallization; RNA Bacteriophage; RNA Hairpin; Translational Repressor | 1995 |

Gesteland, Raymond F.; Atkins, John F.; Ingram, Jennifer A.; Kelly, Paul J.; Grentzmann, Guido | Dual-luciferase reporter system for studying recoding signals | A new reporter system has been developed for measuring translation coupling efficiency of recoding mechanisms such as frameshifting or readthrough. A recoding test sequence is cloned in between the renilla and firefly luciferase reporter genes and the two luciferase activities are subsequently measu... | Amino Acid Sequence; Genes, Reporter; HIV; Antizyme; Translation | 1998 |

Gesteland, Raymond F.; Weiss, Robert B. | Efficient shine- Dalgarno sequence but not translation is necessary for LacZ mRNA stability in Escherichia coli | The 5' ends of many bacterial transcripts are important in determining mRNA stability. A series of Shine-Dalgarno (SD) sequence changes showed that the complementarity of the SD sequence to the anti-SD sequence of 16S rRNA correlates with lacZ mRNA stability in Escherichia coli. Several initiation c... | Protein Biosynthesis; Ribosomes; Escherichia coli; Shine-Dalgarno Sequence | 1994 |

Gesteland, Raymond F.; Atkins, John F. | Evolutionary specialization of recoding: frameshifting in the expression of S. cerevisiae antizyme mRNA is via an atypical antizyme shift site but is still +1 | An autoregulatory translational shift to the +1 frame is required for the expression of ornithine decarboxylase antizyme from fungi to mammals. In most eukaryotes, including all vertebrates and a majority of the studied fungi/yeast, the site on antizyme mRNA where the shift occurs is UCC-UGA. The me... | Antizyme; ODC; Polyamines; Frameshifting | 2006 |

Gesteland, Raymond F.; Atkins, John F. | Frameshifting in gene 10 of bacteriophage T7 | Gene 10 of bacteriophage T7, which encodes the most abundant capsid protein, has two products: a major product, 10A (36 kDa), and a minor product, 10B (41 kDa). 10B is produced by frameshifting into the -1 frame near the end of the 10A coding frame and is incorporated into the capsid. The frameshift... | Frameshifting; Bacteriophage T7; RNA, Viral; Gene Expression | 1991 |

Gesteland, Raymond F.; Atkins, John F.; Felden, Brice; McCutcheon, John P. | Probing the structure of the Escherichia coli 10Sa RNA (tmRNA) | The conformation of the Escherichia coli 10Sa RNA (tmRNA) in solution was investigated using chemical and enzymatic probes. Single- and double-stranded domains were identified by hydrolysis of tmRNA in imidazole buffer and by lead(II)-induced cleavages. Ribonucleases T1 and S1 were used to map unpai... | Covariation; Pseudoknot; Structural Probing; 10Sa RNA; tmRNA | 1997 |

Gesteland, Raymond F.; Atkins, John F.; Wills, Norma M. | rRNA-mRNA base pairing stimulates a programmed -1 ribosomal frameshift | Base pairing between the 3' end of 16S rRNA and mRNA is shown to be important for the programmed -1 frameshifting utilized in decoding the Escherichia coli dnaX gene. This pairing is the same as the Shine-Dalgarno pairing used by prokaryotic ribosomes in selection of translation initiators, but for ... | Frameshifting; Escherichia coli; Binding Sites; Base Composition | 1994 |

Gesteland, Raymond F. | Simian virus 40-specific polypeptides in Ad2+ND4- infected cells | A comparison of the proteins synthesized in human cells at late times after infection with adenovirus (Ad2) and with the adeno-simian virus 40 (SV40) hybrid viruses revealed polypeptides of 30,000 and 92,000 molecular weight specific for the hybrid viruses Ad2+ND1 and Ad2+ND4, respectively.

Gesteland, Raymond F.; Atkins, John F.; Weiss, Robert B. | Slippery runs, shifty stops, backward steps and forward hops: -2, -1, +1, +2, +5 and +6 Ribosomal frameshifting | Frameshift mutations frequently express residual levels of gene activity; that is, they are often leaky. This leakiness can be used as a tool to define the functional components that affect the reading frame during gene expression. Recent technological advances in the capability to efficiently bu... | Molecular Sequence Data; Mutation; RNA, Transfer; Frameshifting | 1987 |

Gesteland, Raymond F.; Atkins, John F.; Tuohy, Therese M. | Uninterrupted translation through putative 12-nucleotide coding gap in sequence of carA: business as usual | Previous work of others reported an untranslated stretch of 12 nucleotides in the 5' coding sequence of carA from Pseudomonas aeruginosa. However, N-terminal protein sequencing of carA-lacZ translational fusions shows that these 12 nucleotides are normally translated in a continuous triplet manner, ... | Base Sequence; Protein Biosynthesis; Sequence Deletion | 1994 |
