Shah and colleagues take advantage of the presence of maternal and somatic ribosomes in zebrafish and confirm their differential expression during development. The authors convincingly show that ...

During the elongation cycle of protein biosynthesis on the ribosome, elongation factor G (EF-G), a GTPase, facilitates the translocation of the A- and P-site tRNAs to the P and E sites ...

Using HRTM, the researchers were able to detect ribosomes in 41 different conformational states that cover the entire elongation cycle. By combining these sequences into a flipbook, the ...

The major conformations of the ribosome and the elongation cycle of translation, along with the corresponding movement parameters of the small subunit. News organizations may use or redistribute ...

The large subunit of the ribosome contains the peptidyl transferase center (PTC), which catalyzes the formation of peptide bonds between the amino acids, leading to the elongation of the protein chain ...

The major conformations of the ribosome and the elongation cycle of translation, along with the corresponding movement parameters of the small subunit. Ribosomal translation is the process by ...

At one time or another, most of us have played with a flipbook, using our thumbs to rapidly flip a series of pictures to create an illusion of movement. Scientists use a similar technique to study ...

The researchers visualized translation, including ribosome pauses, by using the intensity of GFP-tagged antibodies on the polypeptide to measure polypeptide elongation. As Tanenbaum and his team ...
