EF-P and its paralog EfpL (YeiP) differentially control translation of proline-containing sequences Open
Polyproline sequences are deleterious to cells because they stall ribosomes. In bacteria, EF-P plays an important role in overcoming such polyproline sequence-induced ribosome stalling. Additionally, numerous bacteria possess an EF-P paral…

EF-P and its paralog EfpL (YeiP) differentially control translation of proline-containing sequences Open
Polyproline sequences (XPPX) stall ribosomes, thus being deleterious for all living organisms. In bacteria, translation elongation factor P (EF-P) plays a crucial role in overcoming such arrests. 12% of eubacteria possess an EF-P paralog –…

Genome-wide profiling of Hfq-bound RNAs reveals the iron-responsive small RNA RusT in <i>Caulobacter crescentus</i> Open
The alphaproteobacterium Caulobacter crescentus thrives in oligotrophic environments and is able to optimally exploit minimal resources by entertaining an intricate network of gene expression control mechanisms. Numerous transcriptional ac…
