N-terminal formylmethionine as a degron and a specific signal in proteostasis and stress adaptation [PDF]
Experimental and Molecular MedicineN-terminal (Nt) methionine formylation, once thought restricted to bacteria and organelles, is now recognized as a stress-inducible initiator modification in the eukaryotic cytosol.

Elongating Effect of the Peptide AEDL on the Root of Nicotiana tabacum under Salinity
Plants, 2022 The overall survival of a plant depends on the development, growth, and functioning of the roots. Root development and growth are not only genetically programmed but are constantly influenced by environmental factors, with the roots adapting to such ...

Cholesteryl esters are bound by a peptide-initiation and a peptide-elongation factor [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 1980 Significantly higher quantities of cholesteryl 14-methylhexadecanoate than of cholesteryl laurate and cholesteryl palmitate are bound by a homogeneous peptide-initiation factor and purified peptide-elongation factor 1. Cholesteryl 14-methylhexadecanoate may function as a specific allosteric modifier changing the conformation of protein synthesis ...

Control of translation elongation in health and disease
Disease Models & Mechanisms, 2020 Regulation of protein synthesis makes a major contribution to post-transcriptional control pathways. During disease, or under stress, cells initiate processes to reprogramme protein synthesis and thus orchestrate the appropriate cellular response. Recent

Mitochondrial peptide chain elongation factors from Neurospora crassa [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 1970 Two complementary peptide chain elongation factors (G and T) have been isolated from a mitochondrial 100,000 g supernatant. Both factors are specific for 70 S ribosomes and can be crossed with T and G factors from E. coli.

Further Evidence that Elongation Factor 1 Remains Bound to Ribosomes during Peptide Chain Elongation [PDF]
European Journal of Biochemistry, 1977 This paper describes three types of experiments which indicate that the binding sites for elongation factor 1 (EF‐1) and elongation factor 2 (EF‐2) on ascites cell ribosomes are not identical and perhaps not even overlapping. The experimental evidence presented includes direct competitive binding of labeled elongation factors to ribosomes as well as ...

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 Bacterial cell wall contains peptidoglycan (PG) to protect the cells from turgor and environmental stress. PG consists of polymeric glycans cross-linked with each other by short peptide chains and forms an elastic mesh-like sacculus around the ...

Origin of the ribosome specific factors responsible for peptide chain elongation in yeast [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 1971 The factors responsible for polypeptide chain elongation are specific for ribosomes of either the 70 S or the 80 S type [l--4]. Two different sets of elongation factors, one specific for 70 S ribosomes and one for 80 S ribosomes, are present in eukaryotic organisms: in Ne ...
