Translation factor accelerating peptide bond formation on the ribosome: EF-P and eIF5A as entropic catalysts and a potential drug targets
Elongation factor P (EF-P) and its eukaryotic homolog eIF5A are auxiliary translation factors that facilitate peptide bond formation when several sequential proline (Pro) residues are incorporated into the nascent chain. EF-P and eIF5A bind to the exit (E) site of the ribosome and contribute to favo...
