Method
A computational method to predict genetically encoded rare amino acids in proteins Barnali N Chaudhuri, Todd O Yeates Genome Biology 2005, 6:R79 (31 August 2005) A new method for predicting recoding by rare amino acids such as selenocysteine and pyrrolysine was used to survey a set of microbial genomes. |
