Volkov K, et al. (2007) N-terminal extension of Saccharomyces cerevisiae translation termination factor eRF3 influences the suppression efficiency of sup35 mutations. FEMS Yeast Res 7(3):357-365
Abstract: The eukaryotic translation termination factor eRF3 stimulates release of nascent polypeptides from the ribosome in a GTP-dependent manner. In most eukaryotes studied, eRF3 consists of an essential, conserved C-terminal domain and a nonessential, nonconserved N-terminal extension. However, in some species, this extension is required for efficient termination. Our data show that the N-terminal extension of Saccharomyces cerevisiae eRF3 also participates in regulation of termination efficiency, but acts as a negative factor, increasing nonsense suppression efficiency in sup35 mutants containing amino acid substitutions in the C-terminal domain of the protein.
