Abstract excerpt
A novel mutant form of elongation factor G (EF-G) in Escherichia coli is described. This variant EF-G restricts reading frame errors by a factor of 2 to 3 in vivo at two different positions in a lacIZ fusion. In addition, a conventional fusidic acid resistant (fusR) mutant of EF-G was compared wi...
