Role of ribosomal protein L27 in peptidyl transfer.
Biochemistry - 29 Apr 2008
Trobro Stefan, Aqvist Johan
Abstract excerpt
The current view of ribosomal peptidyl transfer is that the ribosome is a ribozyme and that ribosomal proteins are not involved in catalysis of the chemical reaction. This view is largely based on the first crystal structures of bacterial large ribosomal subunits that did not show any protein components near the peptidyl transferase center (PTC). Recent crystallographic data on the full 70S ribosome from Thermus...
