The conserved protein EF4 (LepA) modulates the elongation cycle of protein synthesis.
EF4 (LepA), a strongly conserved protein, is important for bacterial growth and functional protein biosynthesis under certain conditions and is quite similar structurally to the translocase EF-G. The elongation cycle in protein synthesis is characterized by ribosome oscillation between pretranslocation (PRE) and posttranslocation (POST) complexes. Here, using ensemble single turnover and equili...
متن کاملElongation factor 4 (EF4/LepA) accelerates protein synthesis at increased Mg2+ concentrations.
Elongation factor 4 (EF4) is one of the most conserved proteins present in bacteria as well as in mitochondria and chloroplasts of eukaryotes. Although EF4 has the unique ability to catalyze the back-translocation reaction on posttranslocation state ribosomes, the physiological role of EF4 remains unclear. Here we demonstrate that EF4 is stored at the membrane of Escherichia coli cells and rele...

The Highly Conserved LepA Is a Ribosomal Elongation Factor that Back-Translocates the Ribosome
The ribosomal elongation cycle describes a series of reactions prolonging the nascent polypeptide chain by one amino acid and driven by two universal elongation factors termed EF-Tu and EF-G in bacteria. Here we demonstrate that the extremely conserved LepA protein, present in all bacteria and mitochondria, is a third elongation factor required for accurate and efficient protein synthesis. LepA...
متن کاملIdentification of Two Structural Elements Important for Ribosome-Dependent GTPase Activity of Elongation Factor 4 (EF4/LepA)
The bacterial translational GTPase EF4/LepA is structurally similar to the canonical elongation factor EF-G. While sharing core structural features with other translational GTPases, the function of EF4 remains unknown. Recent structural data locates the unique C-terminal domain (CTD) of EF4 in proximity to the ribosomal peptidyl transferase center (PTC). To investigate the functional role of EF...
