Understanding these fundamental processes holds great potential for developing new antibiotics that target these specific pathways in bacterial protein synthesis ... very first stage in ...

In particular, regulation of protein synthesis in bacteria is probably determined by interaction between operator genes and proteins acting as repressors 1. It is conceivable that the proteins ...

The team discovered that certain bacteria also use a protein called EfpL, closely related to EF-P, as an additional tool for protein synthesis. However, unlike EF-P, EfpL adjusts its activity ...

However, one aspect of bacterial cellular organization that has remained mysterious is the location of protein synthesis. In bacteria, most translation occurs on mature mRNAs that are thought to ...

This process of protein synthesis occurs in two stages - transcription and translation. When a gene is to be expressed, the base sequence of DNA is copied or transcribed into mRNA (messenger RNA).
