Abstract

The translation of mRNA into protein at the ribosomal level can be divided into three phases: initiation, elongation and termination. The initiation phase can be divided into: (a) Recognition of initiation factors and mRNA by the 30S subunit, (b) binding of f-Met-tRNAFet and (c) combination of this initiation complex with a 50S subunit.The elongation phase follows initiation of protein biosynthesis and is composed of repeated cycles. Each cycle can be divided into:(a) EF-Tu dependent aminoacyl-tRNA-binding, (b) peptide bond formation and (c) translocation. The translocation step requires the elongation factor G and GTP. The elongation cycle occurs repeatedly until the termination codon of the mRNA is reached. In response to this codon, release factors are bound and promote release of a newly synthesized protein from the tRNA moiety in a reaction catalyzed by the ribosomal peptidyltransferase (Haselkorn and Rothman-Denes, 1973; Pongs et al., 1974).
