The method, called ribosome profiling, delivered a surprise. On closer inspection, many of the messenger RNA molecules did not correspond to any known gene.
Translation initiation begins with the ribosome recognizing the initiation site and catalyzing the transfer of amino acids to the growing peptide chain through elongation.
The major conformations of the ribosome and the elongation cycle of translation, along with the corresponding movement parameters of the small subunit. Ribosomal translation is the process by ...
