Abstract excerpt
The eukaryotic translation termination factor eRF3 stimulates release of nascent polypeptides from the ribosome in a GTP-dependent manner. In most eukaryotes studied, eRF3 consists of an essential, conserved C-terminal domain and a nonessential, nonconserved N-terminal extension. However, in some species, this extension is required for efficient termination. Our data show that the N-terminal extension of...
