Gesteland, Raymond F.; Atkins, John F.; Baranov, Pavel V. | Diverse bacterial genomes encode an operon of two genes, one of which is an unusual class-I release factor that potentially recognizes atypical mRNA signals other than normal stop codons | ABSTRACT: Background: While all codons that specify amino acids are universally recognized by tRNA molecules, codons signaling termination of translation are recognized by proteins known as class-I release factors (RF). In most eukaryotes and archaea a single RF accomplishes termination at all three... | Class-I release factors; RF1; RF2; Bacterial genomes | 2006 |

Thomas, Kirk R.; Capecchi, Mario R. | Maintenance of functional equivalence during paralogous Hox gene evolution. | Biological diversity is driven mainly by gene duplication followed by mutation and selection. This divergence in either regulatory or protein-coding sequences can result in quite different biological functions for even closely related genes. This concept is exemplified by the mammalian Hox gene comp... | Alleles; Animals; Cervical Vertebrae; Embryo; Genetic Complementation Test; Homeodomain Proteins; Homozygote; Mice | 2000-02-10 |

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.; Baranov, Pavel V.; Atkins, John F.; Hammer, Andrew W. | Transcriptional slippage in bacteria: distribution in sequenced genomes and utilization in IS element gene expression | ABSTRACT: Background: Transcription slippage occurs on certain patterns of repeat mononucleotides, resulting in synthesis of a heterogeneous population of mRNAs. Individual mRNA molecules within this population differ in the number of nucleotides they contain that are not specified by the templat... | Transcription slippage; Bacterial genomes; IS element genes | 2005 |

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 |

Capecchi, Mario R. | Hoxc13 mutant mice lack external hair | Hox genes are usually expressed temporally and spatially in a colinear manner with respect to their positions in the Hox complex. Consistent with the expected pattern for a paralogous group 13 member, early embryonic Hoxc13 expression is found in the nails and tail. Hoxc13 is also expressed in vibri... | Filiform papillae; Homozygotes; Paralogous | 1998-01-01 |

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 |
