Visualization of translation termination intermediates trapped by the Apidaecin 137 peptide during RF3-mediated recycling of RF1
In bacteria, the process of translation termination is performed by three termination release factors RF1, RF2 and RF3. Here the authors provide detailed structural insights into the mechanism by which RF1 is dissociated from the ribosome by RF3 during termination.
