The ORF Finder (Open Reading Frame Finder) [16] is a graphical analysis tool which finds all open reading frames of a selectable minimum size in a user's sequence or in a sequence already in the database. This tool identifies all open reading frames using the standard or alternative genetic codes.
An open reading frame (ORF) is a reading frame that has the potential to be transcribed into RNA and translated into protein. It requires a continuous sequence of DNA which may include a start codon, through a subsequent region which has a length that is a multiple of 3 nucleotides, to a stop codon in the same reading frame.
Another form of translational regulation in eukaryotes comes from unique elements on the 5′ UTR called upstream open reading frames (uORF). These elements are fairly common, occurring in 35–49% of all human genes. [18] A uORF is a coding sequence located in the 5′ UTR located upstream of the coding sequences initiation site.
The alternative open reading frames (ORF) are thought to be created by critical nucleotide substitutions within an expressible pre-existing gene, which can be induced to express a novel protein while still preserving the function of the original gene. [5]
ORF1ab (also ORF1a/b) refers collectively to two open reading frames (ORFs), ORF1a and ORF1b, that are conserved in the genomes of nidoviruses, a group of viruses that includes coronaviruses. The genes express large polyproteins that undergo proteolysis to form several nonstructural proteins with various functions in the viral life cycle ...
C2orf80 (chromosome 2 open reading frame 80) is a protein that, in humans, is encoded by the c2orf80 gene. The gene c2orf80 also goes by the alias GONDA1 (gonad development associated 1). The gene c2orf80 also goes by the alias GONDA1 (gonad development associated 1).
The human gene Chromosome 3 open reading frame 14 is a gene of uncertain function located at 3p14.2 near fragile site FRBA3—which falls between this gene and the centromere. [1] Its protein is expected to localize to the nucleus and bind DNA.
Chromosome 21 open reading frame 91 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the C21orf91 gene. [5] EURL is a structural protein gene that is encoded within the human chromosome 21. [6] [7] It stands for gene Expressed in Undifferentiated Retina and Lens and was first found in chick embryos.
