Elongation factor 2

UniProtKB accession:  P32324

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Catalyzes the GTP-dependent ribosomal translocation step during translation elongation (PubMed:16950777, PubMed:29069440, PubMed:14976550, PubMed:17082187). During this step, the ribosome changes from the pre-translocational (PRE) to the post-translocational (POST) state as the newly formed A-site-bound peptidyl-tRNA and P-site-bound deacylated tRNA move to the P and E sites, respectively (PubMed:16950777, PubMed:14976550, PubMed:17082187). Catalyzes the coordinated movement of the two tRNA molecules, the mRNA and conformational changes in the ribosome (PubMed:16950777, PubMed:14976550, PubMed:17082187).
