The team discovered that certain bacteria also use a protein called EfpL, closely related to EF-P, as an additional tool for protein synthesis. However, unlike EF-P, EfpL adjusts its activity ...

Translation elongation factors play a crucial role in the process of protein synthesis in bacteria. These factors assist the ribosome in efficiently adding amino acids to a growing polypeptide ...

Many antibiotics target specific differences in prokaryotic proteins, allowing them to kill bacteria selectively without harming human cells. The Steps of Protein Synthesis In prokaryotes like ...
