!!GENETIC_CODE 1.0 transl_table = 2 This file contains the Vertebrate Mitochondrial Code translation table, specified in the Feature Definition, Version 1.08, formatted for use with GCG programs. It names amino acids in both one and three-letter form and lists the codons which should translate into them. All GCG translation programs may generate their translations from the unambiguous codons in this table. Codons which are all lower case are start codons. Alternative Initiation Codon: Bos: AUA Homo: AUA, AUU Mus: AUA, AUU, AUC Coturnix, Gallus: also GUG (Desjardins and Morais, 1991) Systematic Range: Vertebrata Comment: * The transcripts of several vertebrate mitochondrial genes end in U or UA, which become termination codons (UAA) upon subsequent polyadenylation. This code differs from the standard code in the following codons: Mitochondrion Standard W Trp TGA * End TGA I Ile att I Ile ATT I Ile atc I Ile ATC V Val gtg M Met ata I Ile ATA * End AGA R Arg AGA * End AGG R Arg AGG The Vertebrate Mitochondrial Code Symbol 3-letter Codons !
