Messenger-RNA-directed protein synthesis is accomplished by the ribosome. In eubacteria, this complex process is initiated by a specialized transfer RNA charged with formylmethionine (tRNA(fMet)). The amino-terminal formylated methionine of all bacterial nascent polypeptides blocks the reactive amino group to prevent

The interaction between fMet-tRNA(f)(Met) and Bacillus stearothermophilus translation initiation factor IF2 has been characterized. We demonstrate that essentially all thermodynamic determinants governing the stability and the specificity of this interaction are localized within the acceptor hexanucleotide fMet-3'ACCAAC of the initiator

The large ribosomal subunit catalyzes peptide bond formation during protein synthesis. Its peptidyl transferase activity has often been studied using a 'fragment assay' that depends on high concentrations of methanol or ethanol. Here we describe a version of this assay
