A unique tRNA recognition mechanism of Caenorhabditis elegans mitochondrial EF-Tu2.

Nucleic acids research - 1 Jan 2005

Suematsu Takuma, Sato Aya, Sakurai Masayuki, Watanabe Kimitsuna, Ohtsuki Takashi

Abstract excerpt

Nematode mitochondria expresses two types of extremely truncated tRNAs that are specifically recognized by two distinct elongation factor Tu (EF-Tu) species named EF-Tu1 and EF-Tu2. This is unlike the canonical EF-Tu molecule that participates in the standard protein biosynthesis systems, which b...
