Abstract excerpt
Elongation factors G, Tu, and related proteins (including LepA) form a distinct subgroup within the GTPase superfamily. This observation is based primarily upon amino acid comparisons of the effector region (G2) of the GTP-binding domain. To examine the functional importance of the highly conserved elongation factor G2 domain a series of chimeric proteins were constructed between Escherichia coli EF-G and...
