Guanine-nucleotide exchange on ribosome-bound elongation factor G initiates the translocation of tRNAs
BACKGROUND During the translation of mRNA into polypeptide, elongation factor G (EF-G) catalyzes the translocation of peptidyl-tRNA from the A site to the P site of the ribosome. According to the 'classical' model, EF-G in the GTP-bound form promotes translocation, while hydrolysis of the bound GTP promotes dissociation of the factor from the post-translocation ribosome. According to a more rec...
متن کاملStm1p alters the ribosome association of eukaryotic elongation factor 3 and affects translation elongation
Stm1p is a Saccharomyces cerevisiae protein that is primarily associated with cytosolic 80S ribosomes and polysomes. Several lines of evidence suggest that Stm1p plays a role in translation under nutrient stress conditions, although its mechanism of action is not yet known. In this study, we show that yeast lacking Stm1p (stm1Delta) are hypersensitive to the translation inhibitor anisomycin, wh...
متن کاملActivation of GCN2 kinase by ribosome stalling links translation elongation with translation initiation
Ribosome stalling during translation has recently been shown to cause neurodegeneration, yet the signaling pathways triggered by stalled elongation complexes are unknown. To investigate these pathways we analyzed the brain of C57BL/6J-Gtpbp2(nmf205)(-/-) mice in which neuronal elongation complexes are stalled at AGA codons due to deficiencies in a tRNA(Arg)UCU tRNA and GTPBP2, a mammalian ribos...
متن کاملReal time determination of bacterial in vivo ribosome translation elongation speed based on LacZα complementation system
Bacterial growth significantly depends on protein synthesis catalyzed by ribosome. Ribosome translation elongation speed is a key factor determining the bacterial protein synthesis rate. However, existing methods for determining translation elongation speed have limited applications. Here we developed a simple and convenient method for measuring bacterial translation elongation speed based on L...
متن کاملAn "elongated" translation elongation factor Tu for truncated tRNAs in nematode mitochondria.
We have found the gene for a translation elongation factor Tu (EF-Tu) homologue in the genome of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. Because the corresponding protein was detected immunologically in a nematode mitochondrial (mt) extract, it could be regarded as a nematode mt EF-Tu. The protein possesses an extension of about 57 amino acids (we call this domain 3') at the C terminus, which is n...
