FIGURE 2.
Poly(Phe) synthesis as measured by incorporation of [3H]Phe in a TCA-precipitable peptide. (A) Synthesis by ribosomes adsorbed on mica (squares: in the presence of elongation factors Tu, G, and Ts; diamonds: in the absence of elongation factors). (B) Synthesis by ribosomes in solution. The values shown are the mean and standard deviation (n = 4).
