Selenoprotein T, also known as SELT, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SELT gene.[1][2][3]

## Gene

[edit | edit source]

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.[3]

## Protein structure

[edit | edit source]

Selenoprotein T contains a selenocysteine (Sec) residue at its active site.
