TABLE 3.
Quality tests of T. thermophilus EF-G crystal structure and S. cerevisiae EF2 model by using the PROCHECK programa
| Elongation factor | Percent residues in the following locations:
|
SD of ω angles | No. of bad contacts | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Most favored region | Additional allowed zones | Generously allowed regions | Disallowed regions | |||
| T. thermophilus EF-G (691 amino acids) | 90.1 | 8.9 | 0.5 | 0.5 | 6.0 | 1 |
| S. cerevisiae EF2 (842 amino acids) | 80.2 | 17.0 | 1.6 | 1.2 | 10.6 | 7 |
Ramachandran plots were generated with the PROCHECK program by using the coordinates from PDB entries 1dar and 1elo for EF-G and from the theoretical model presented here for EF2 (see Materials and Methods).
