Structural Organization of the Escherichia coli Ribosomes and Localization of Functional Domains

  • Chapter
  • 18 Accesses

Abstract

The translation of mRNA into protein occurs on ribosomes with the participation of macromolecules such as tRNAs and protein synthesis factors. The factors play important roles during the three main steps of the cycle of protein synthesis, namely initiation, elongation and termination.
