Dipeptide and tripeptide formation experiments; scheme of translation elongation. Comparison of the MRE600 (black trace), MG1655 (blue trace) (both contain two L12 dimers) and JE105 (red trace) (single L12 dimer) ribosomes in dipeptide (a) and tripeptide (b) formation assays. (c) Schematic representation of different steps of elongation showing the average time analysis for by MG1655/MRE600 (in black) and JE105 (in red) ribosomes. The average time for EF-G driven steps was estimated as [1/kobs (tripeptide) − 2 (1/kobs (dipeptide))].
