four sub steps in elongation
- decoding
- accomodation
- peptide bond formation
- translocation
decoding
charged tRNA enters the ribosome
base paiting between the mRNA and the tRNA anticodon
release of EFTu and eEFIA
accomodation
movement of aminoacid end of tRNA into the peptidyl transferase centre
translocation
role of EFG and eEF2
how many elongation factors for bateria adn euk
4 for both
elongation factos for bacteria
EFTu
EFTs
EFG
EFP
elongation factos for euk
eEF1A
eEFIBa
eEF2
eIF5A
functional equivalent for EFTu
eEF1A
fucntional equivalent for EFTs
eEF1Ba
functional equivalent for EFG
eEF2
functional equivalent for EFP
eIF5A
what can enter the A site in bacterai and euk
EFTu/eEF1A
EFG/eEF2
eRF3
Hbs1
RF1, RF3
WHAT DOES eEF1A do
delivers aatRNA to sense codons
what does eRF3 do
delivers eRF1 to stop codons
what does hbs1 do
delivers pelota to stalled ribosomes (no codons)
how does EFTu and EFG bind to ribosome faster than other things
bc the L12 ctds reach into soln to catch translation factos and hand them over to the ribosomal factor binding site
what happens during deconding
aatRNA is delivered by EFTu and eEF1A - not selected by ribosome- depends on matching
single mismatch
near cognate
non cognate
two or more mismatches
what does the cognate tRNA anticodon match with
forms a double strand helix with the mRNA codon
what facts about the double helix formed between the codon and the cognate tRNA
it is short and relatively unstable
must allwo for wobble
near cognate might be just as stable
how do we know that the correct tRNA is matched
like a trigger loop
-conserved nucleotides in 16RNA respond to formation of double helix- they change conformation and interact with the minor groove fo the codon anticodon helix
they help stabilize the A siete tRNA via hydrogen bonding providing tolerance at position 3
same for eukaryotes but in the 18s decoding centre
what happnes when we decide that the codon anticodon interaction is good
confromational changes in the ribosome
L7/12 stalk acts as a GAP for EFTu and eEF1A
what are two latent GTPases for this section
EFTu and eEF1A
