prfB Antibody

1. both RF1 binding and RF2 binding are sufficient to shift the population of posthydrolysis ribosome complexes from primarily the rotated to the nonrotated state only when a cognate stop codon is present in the A-site. PMID: 29499110
2. The structures demonstrate how ArfA 'senses' the vacant mRNA tunnel and activates RF2 to mediate peptide release without a stop codon, allowing stalled ribosomes to be recycled. PMID: 28300532
3. The authors characterized the ArfA pathway of non-productive translation complexe resolution in vitro and identified RF2 as a factor that cooperates with ArfA to hydrolyse peptidyl-tRNAs located in the P-site of the stalled ribosome. PMID: 22857598
4. RF2 binds to stalled ribosomes only in the presence of ArfA, demonstrating that ArfA recruits RF2 into the A site of the ribosome to facilitate peptidyl-tRNA hydrolysis. PMID: 22922063
5. Mutations at the two positions on 23S rRNA did not affect aminoacyl-tRNA (aa-tRNA) accommodation, peptide bond formation, or the fidelity of aa-tRNA selection, but impaired RF2-catalyzed peptide release. PMID: 20668033
6. prfB encoding RF2 is a new member of the polyamine modulon PMID: 16476727
7. L11 mutations located on the surface of two domains of L11 affect the interaction of L11 with RF1 and RF2 thereby leading to an altered translation termination. PMID: 16556224
8. All cognate ribosomal E-site duplex interactions are adequate for any translational role, including effects on reading frame maintenance during RF-2 programmed frameshifting. PMID: 17660276
9. RF1 and RF2 are methylated on the Gln residue of a universally conserved tripeptide motif GGQ, which interacts with the peptidyl transferase center of the large ribosomal subunit, triggering hydrolysis of the ester bond in peptidyl-tRNA PMID: 17932046
10. analysis of the direct relationship between cumulative signal phase and reading frame of prfB in E. coli PMID: 17946637
