Abstract excerpt
Termination efficiency of a mutant form of RF (release facor) 1, as compared to the wild-type enzyme, is influenced by the P-site peptidyl-tRNA if the termination signal is UAGA. This effect is weaker at the stronger termination signal UAGU. Similarly, low efficiency of the mutant RF1, together with certain peptidyl-tRNAs, can be increased by changing the second base of the 3'-flanking codon from C to G. The data...
