Description | SELB (SelB homolog) translation factor for selenocysteine incorporation | Primary Identifier | selb |
Remark | SelB acts as a translation factor necessary for the incorporation of selenocysteine into proteins. It probably replaces EF-Tu for the insertion of selenocysteine directed by the UGA codon. SelB binds GTP and GDP. selb has been renamed to efsc "eukaryotic Elongation Factor, SelenoCysteine-tRNA-specific" |
