摘要: The computational identification of selenoprotein genes is complicated by the dual meaning UGA codon as stop and selenocysteine. SECIS elements are RNA structures essential for selenocysteine incorporation, which have been used markers in many bioinformatics studies. most widely tool eukaryotic finding has recently improved to its third generation, SECISearch3. This program also a component Seblastian, pipeline that employs first step. chapter constitutes practical guide use SECISearch3 can be run via webservers at http://seblastian.crg.eu / or http://gladyshevlab.org/SelenoproteinPredictionServer/ .
