Peptide Chain Elongation and Termination in Eukaryotes

  • Chapter
Protein Biosynthesis in Eukaryotes

Part of the book series: NATO Advanced Study Institutes Series ((NSSA,volume 41))

Abstract

The steps of protein synthesis in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes involve similar reactions. One exception is the initiation process which involves more factors and appears to be more complicated in eukaryotes than in prokaryotes. The steps of elongation and termination appear to be quite similar and this chapter will summarize some aspects of peptide chain elongation and termination in eukaryotes.
