from Genbank:

True.

I have added a "Standard with selenocysteine" in 20.
I have also added a "Bacterial with selenocysteine" in 19.

Now is not apparent that 20 and 19 are only for in-frame TGAs, not codon
stops in CDSs. 

I've seen an email from Ewan in 2004-July bioperl-ml that they solved
that problem in ensembl, but I haven't found how they did it in their
code:
