Question
Chapter 31, Problem 29P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The effect of the slow rate of GTP analog hydrolysis on the process of protein synthesis should be determined.
Concept introduction:
Elongation factor-thermo unstable (EF-Tu) is an enzyme, which catalyzes the binding of A site of the ribosome to the aminoacyl-tRNA. EF-Tu is a G-protein, which is found in complex with GTP (guanine triphosphate). The EF-Tu-GTP complex binds to aminoacyl-tRNA and forms a complex.
