    Abstract : Synthesis of proteins is performed by the ribosome, a large ribonucleoprotein complex. Apart from the ribosome, numerous protein factors participate in this process. Elongation factor 2 (eEF2) is one of these factors. eEF2 is an essential protein with a mol. READ MORE

    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; protein synthesis; elongation; elongation factor G; fusidic acid; antibiotic resistance; aminoglycoside adenyltransferase; ribosomal frameshifting; Biology with specialization in Structural Biology; Biologi med inriktning mot strukturbiologi;

    Abstract : Protein synthesis, translation, performed by the ribosome, is a fundamental process of life and one of the main targets of antibacterial drugs. This thesis provides structural and biochemical understanding of three aspects of bacterial translation.Elongation factor G (EF-G) is the target for the antibiotic fusidic acid (FA). READ MORE

  6. 4. Ribosomal proteins L5, L15 and elongation factor 2, three vital components of the translation machinery : Functional features of RPL5, RPL15 and EF2 from Saccharomyces cerevisiae studied in vivo

    Author : Hossein Moradi; Roger Karlsson; Odd Nygård; Anders Liljas; Stockholms universitet; []

    Abstract : Protein synthesis is an essential, energy consuming and tightly regulated process in all living cells. A central core of the cellular protein-factory is a macromolecule called ribosome. Ribosomes are composed of ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) and proteins (RPs). Additional components such as elongation factors (EFs) also contribute to this process. READ MORE
