Mitochondrial translation: elongation factor tu is essential in fission yeast and depends on an exchange factor conserved in humans but not in budding yeast.

Genetics - 1 Apr 2005

Chiron Stéphane, Suleau Audrey, Bonnefoy Nathalie

Abstract excerpt

The translation elongation factor EF-Tu is a GTPase that delivers amino-acylated tRNAs to the ribosome during the elongation step of translation. EF-Tu/GDP is recycled by the guanine nucleotide exchange factor EF-Ts. Whereas EF-Ts is lacking in S. cerevisiae, both translation factors are found in S. pombe and H. sapiens mitochondria, consistent with the known similarity between fission yeast and human cell...
