Protein
Elongation factor P 1
Organism
Lactobacillus acidophilus (strain ATCC 700396 / NCK56 / N2 / NCFM)
Function
Involved in peptide bond synthesis. Stimulates efficient translation and peptide-bond synthesis on native or reconstituted 70S ribosomes in vitro. Probably functions indirectly by altering the affinity of the ribosome for aminoacyl-tRNA, thus increasing their reactivity as acceptors for peptidyl transferase.
Similarity
Belongs to the elongation factor P family.
