    • Codon usage revisited: lack of correlation between codon usage and the number of tRNA genes in enterobacteria 
      Rojas, Joaquin; Castillo, Gabriel; Leiva Araya, Lorenzo; Elgamal, Sara; Orellana Orellana, Omar; Ibba, Michael; Katz Zondek, Assaf (Elsevier, 2018-08-25)
      It is widely believed that if a high number of genes are found for any tRNA in a rapidly replicating bacteria, then the cytoplasmic levels of that tRNA will be high and an open reading frame containing a higher frequency ...
    • EF-P Dependent Pauses Integrate Proximal and Distal Signals during Translation 
      Elgamal, Sara; Katz, Assaf; Hersch, Steven J.; Newsom, David; White, Peter; Navarre, William Wiley; Ibba, Michael (Public Library of Science, 2014)
      © 2014 Elgamal et al. Elongation factor P (EF-P) is required for the efficient synthesis of proteins with stretches of consecutive prolines and other motifs that would otherwise lead to ribosome pausing. However, previous ...
    • Non-canonical roles of tRNAs and tRNA mimics in bacterial cell biology 
      Katz Zondek, Assaf; Elgamal, Sara; Rajkovic, Andrei; Ibba, Michael (Wiley-Blackwell, 2016)
      Transfer RNAs (tRNAs) are the macromolecules that transfer activated amino acids from aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases to the ribosome, where they are used for the mRNA guided synthesis of proteins. Transfer RNAs are ancient ...
