From 8a386ac7937984520aba4d49a73548d0302ddaec Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dylan Pulver Date: Thu, 3 Sep 2026 19:43:15 +0300 Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Fix CTG assignment in genetic code tables 27-30 NCBI gc.prt v4.3 changed CTG to Leu in genetic codes 27, 28, 29 and 30. The bundled table is a snapshot of gc.prt v4.2, so translate() returned Ala for these four codes. Add a test covering the CTG assignment, with controls for the tables that genuinely reassign CTG (3, 12 and 26). --- src/biotite/sequence/codon_tables.txt | 8 ++++---- tests/sequence/test_codon.py | 24 ++++++++++++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 28 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/biotite/sequence/codon_tables.txt b/src/biotite/sequence/codon_tables.txt index a6aa7352d..517a77d63 100644 --- a/src/biotite/sequence/codon_tables.txt +++ b/src/biotite/sequence/codon_tables.txt @@ -163,7 +163,7 @@ Base3 TCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAG name Karyorelict Nuclear id 27 -AA FFLLSSSSYYQQCCWWLLLAPPPPHHQQRRRRIIIMTTTTNNKKSSRRVVVVAAAADDEEGGGG +AA FFLLSSSSYYQQCCWWLLLLPPPPHHQQRRRRIIIMTTTTNNKKSSRRVVVVAAAADDEEGGGG Init -----------------------------------i---------------------------- Base1 TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG Base2 TTTTCCCCAAAAGGGGTTTTCCCCAAAAGGGGTTTTCCCCAAAAGGGGTTTTCCCCAAAAGGGG @@ -171,7 +171,7 @@ Base3 TCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAG name Condylostoma Nuclear id 28 -AA FFLLSSSSYYQQCCWWLLLAPPPPHHQQRRRRIIIMTTTTNNKKSSRRVVVVAAAADDEEGGGG +AA FFLLSSSSYYQQCCWWLLLLPPPPHHQQRRRRIIIMTTTTNNKKSSRRVVVVAAAADDEEGGGG Init -----------------------------------i---------------------------- Base1 TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG Base2 TTTTCCCCAAAAGGGGTTTTCCCCAAAAGGGGTTTTCCCCAAAAGGGGTTTTCCCCAAAAGGGG @@ -179,7 +179,7 @@ Base3 TCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAG name Mesodinium Nuclear id 29 -AA FFLLSSSSYYYYCC*WLLLAPPPPHHQQRRRRIIIMTTTTNNKKSSRRVVVVAAAADDEEGGGG +AA FFLLSSSSYYYYCC*WLLLLPPPPHHQQRRRRIIIMTTTTNNKKSSRRVVVVAAAADDEEGGGG Init -----------------------------------i---------------------------- Base1 TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG Base2 TTTTCCCCAAAAGGGGTTTTCCCCAAAAGGGGTTTTCCCCAAAAGGGGTTTTCCCCAAAAGGGG @@ -187,7 +187,7 @@ Base3 TCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAGTCAG name Peritrich Nuclear id 30 -AA FFLLSSSSYYEECC*WLLLAPPPPHHQQRRRRIIIMTTTTNNKKSSRRVVVVAAAADDEEGGGG +AA FFLLSSSSYYEECC*WLLLLPPPPHHQQRRRRIIIMTTTTNNKKSSRRVVVVAAAADDEEGGGG Init -----------------------------------i---------------------------- Base1 TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG Base2 TTTTCCCCAAAAGGGGTTTTCCCCAAAAGGGGTTTTCCCCAAAAGGGGTTTTCCCCAAAAGGGG diff --git a/tests/sequence/test_codon.py b/tests/sequence/test_codon.py index fe8d38eb4..11720ae50 100644 --- a/tests/sequence/test_codon.py +++ b/tests/sequence/test_codon.py @@ -39,6 +39,30 @@ def test_table_load(table_id): seq.CodonTable.load(table_id) +@pytest.mark.parametrize( + "table_id, expected_amino_acid", + [ + # The ciliate/oligohymenophorean nuclear codes reassign stop codons, + # not the leucine box (NCBI gc.prt >= 4.3) + (27, "L"), # Karyorelict Nuclear + (28, "L"), # Condylostoma Nuclear + (29, "L"), # Mesodinium Nuclear + (30, "L"), # Peritrich Nuclear + # Controls: tables that genuinely reassign 'CTG' + (1, "L"), # Standard + (3, "T"), # Yeast Mitochondrial + (12, "S"), # Alternative Yeast Nuclear + (26, "A"), # Pachysolen tannophilus Nuclear + (31, "L"), # Blastocrithidia Nuclear + ], +) +def test_ctg_assignment(table_id, expected_amino_acid): + """ + Check the 'CTG' assignment against the NCBI genetic code tables. + """ + assert seq.CodonTable.load(table_id)["CTG"] == expected_amino_acid + + def test_table_indexing(): table = seq.CodonTable.load("Standard") assert table["ATG"] == "M" From 1451a48f90fc1d8d5f04bd8ea029d99eba8833e4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dylan Pulver Date: Tue, 15 Sep 2026 00:07:08 +0200 Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Remove the CTG assignment test The test only restates values looked up from the codon table, so it would not have caught the wrong amino acid either.
