Nonsense suppressors change the effects of nonsense mutations by altering how stop codons are read. The largest class of nonsense suppressors are mutations in Category:tRNA genes that alter the codon-anticodon interaction to allow a stop codon to be read by that tRNA. This will only suppress the mutation if the amino acid inserted restores a functional protein product.

Nonsense suppression is defined genetically based on reversing an observable phenotype. Note that this does not mean full restoration of normal function. Nonsense suppression is often incomplete ("leaky") and pleiotropic.

edit table

This table is incomplete and may have inaccuracies in the synonym lists for amber vs ochre. Need to add the engineered suppressors from Kleina et al[3] and Normanly et al[4]. Others?

tRNA suppressors

tRNA suppressors are often, but not always [5], caused by changes in the anticodon loop of the tRNA to allow recognition of a stop codon. Due to wobble rules, amber suppressors are specific for amber (UAG) codons, while ochre suppressors recognize both Ochre (UAA) and Amber (UAG) codons via G=U and A=U basepairing. The suppressor tRNA is no longer able to recognize its cognate codons, which means that in order to be viable, suppressor strains need to have another tRNA that recognizes the unmutated codons. This can be accomplished using strains that are merodiploid for tRNAs that are present in single copy in E. coli, or through the use of multicopy plasmids expressing the suppressor tRNA.

Because the suppressor tRNA is in competition with translation termination factors, the efficiency of suppression is usually less than 100%. In general, ochre suppressors are less efficient than amber suppressors; this is probably due to selection for suppressors that can survive the pleiotropic effects of widespread translational readthrough. Because more E. coli genes terminate in UAA than UAG, amber suppressors tend to be less sickly than ochre suppressors.

non-tRNA nonsense suppressors

UGA suppressors have been isolated[6] in prfB, which encodes peptide release factor RF2.
