Method |
pre-steady-state kinetic experiments. Rate constants monitored by fluorescence changes in labeled tRNAs |
Comments |
The initial selection of tRNA is comprised of initial binding step, which is independent of the codon/anti codon interaction, Coding recognition step, in which codon/anticodon recognition occurs and a GTPase activation step. Constant is for coding recognition of (EF-Tu+ GTP+ aa-tRNA) ternary complex and A site of ribosome. This value is similar both for cognate (correct) codons and near cognate (that differ by one nucleotide) codons |
