Abstract excerpt
trans-Translation is an unusual translation in which tmRNA plays a dual function as a tRNA and an mRNA to relieve the stalled translation on the ribosome. In this study, we examined the effects of an aminoglycoside antibiotic, paromomycin, on several tmRNA-related events in vitro. The results of a chemical footprinting study indicated that paromomycin molecules bind tmRNA at G332/G333 in the tRNA domain and A316...
