Synthetic peptide directed towards the middle region of human SELS

Biochem/physiol Actions

SELS is a selenoprotein, which contains a selenocysteine (Sec) residue at its active site. The selenocysteine is encoded by the UGA codon that normally signals translation termination. The 3′ UTR of selenoprotein genes have a common stem-loop structure, the sec insertion sequence (SECIS), that is necessary for the recognition of UGA as a Sec codon rather than as a stop signal. Studies suggest that this protein may regulate cytokine production, and thus play a key role in the control of the inflammatory response.This gene encodes a selenoprotein, which contains a selenocysteine (Sec) residue at its active site.

Two alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene.
