Effects of H2O2 on translation elongation. In yeast, eIE1A and eIE1B can be modified by protein S-thiolation in response to high concentrations of H2O2. Increase in the methylation in the wobble base 5-methyl-C (m5c) at position C34 of tRNA LEU(CAA) in response to H2O2 enhances the efficiency of translation of genes enriched in the UUG codon (as RPL22A and RPL22B) and causes a change in ribosome composition.
