Abstract excerpt

Peptidyl transfer is a key step in the process of protein biosynthesis. To examine the role of the universal CCA terminal sequence of tRNA in the process of peptidyl transfer, various mutant transcripts of Escherichia coli valine tRNA were constructed. Peptidyl transferase activity, monitored by...
