Abstract excerpt
Here we describe the design, preparation and characterization of 10 EF-Tu mutants of potential utility for the study of Escherichia coli elongation factor Tu (EF-Tu) interaction with tRNA by a fluorescence resonance energy transfer assay. Each mutant contains a single cysteine residue at positions in EF-Tu that are proximal to tRNA sites within the aminoacyl-tRNA.EF-Tu.GTP ternary complex that have previously...
