Abstract excerpt
The kirromycin-resistant EF-Tu mutant Aa, previously shown to be an antisuppressor for nonsense and missense suppressor tRNAs, has been characterised in a poly(U)-primed translation system in vitro. Two major defects were found in the function of the mutant. First, the dissociation constant for Aa binding to Phe-tRNA(Phe) was increased tenfold compared to wild-type EF-Tu. Second, kcat/Km for the interaction...
