The structural basis for release-factor activation during translation termination revealed by time-resolved cryogenic electron microscopy

Translation termination is under strong selection pressure for high speed and accuracy. Here the authors provide a 3D view of the dynamics of a translating bacterial ribosome as it recruits a class-1 release factor (RF1 or RF2) upon encountering a stop codon, and propose a structure-based kinetic mo...
