Abstract excerpt
The effector region of the elongation factor Tu (EF-Tu) from Thermus thermophilus was modified by limited proteolysis or via site-directed mutagenesis. The biochemical properties of the obtained EF-Tu variants were investigated with respect to partial reactions of the functional cycle of EF-Tu. EF-Tu that was cleaved at the Arg59-Gly60 peptide bond [EF-Tu-(1-59)/EF-Tu-(60-405)] bound GDP, EF-Ts and...
