Enterosoma genetic code

The Enterosoma genetic code translates AGG to methionine, as determined by the codon assignment software Codetta; it was further shown that this recoding is associated with a special tRNA with the appropriate anticodon and tRNA identity elements. The code is found in a small clade of species within the Enterosoma genus, according to the GTDB taxonomy system release 220. Codetta called the Enterosoma code for the following genome assemblies: GCA_002431755.1, GCA_002439645.1, GCA_002436825.1, GCA_002451385.1, GCA_002297105.1, GCA_002297045.1, GCA_002404995.1, and GCA_900549915.1.

The Enterosoma genetic code (tentative code number 34) translates AGG to methionine, as determined by the codon assignment software Codetta;1 it was further shown that this recoding is associated with a special tRNA with the appropriate anticodon and tRNA identity elements. The code is found in a small clade of species within the Enterosoma genus, according to the GTDB taxonomy system 2 release 220. Codetta called the Enterosoma code for the following genome assemblies: GCA_002431755.1, GCA_002439645.1, GCA_002436825.1, GCA_002451385.1, GCA_002297105.1, GCA_002297045.1, GCA_002404995.1, and GCA_900549915.1.
