Studies on the Binding of Aminoacyl-tRNA to Wheat Ribosomes

  • Chapter
Gene Expression and its Regulation

Part of the book series: Basic Life Sciences ((BLSC))

Abstract

The correct positioning of specific aminoacyl-tRNAs on the ribosome-mRNA complex is a key reaction in protein synthesis (translation). Although the intimate mechanism of the reaction is still mysterious, much information has been obtained about the components and products of aminoacyl-tRNA binding to ribosomes in bacterial systems (1). We know much less about how this process occurs in eukaryotic cells.
