ProAD – A database of rotary ion-translocating ATPases in prokaryotic genomes
Most prokaryotic genomes encode only a single rotary ATPase ... All coding DNA sequences (CDSs) were grouped into candidate operons based on the following criteria: (1) CDSs are located on the same ...

Indirect Routes to Aminoacyl-tRNA: The Diversity of Prokaryotic Cysteine Encoding Systems
Universally present aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (aaRSs) stringently recognize their cognate tRNAs and acylate them with one of the proteinogenic amino acids. However, some organisms possess aaRSs that ...
