additional information | the G-nucleotide binding pocket includes five G motifs (G1-G5) that are conserved in trGTPase factors. In the ribosome-bound EF4, the G1 motif (residues 18-24) establishes extensive contacts with the triphosphate moiety and ribose sugar of GDPCP.

additional information | structure of the GTP form of elongation factor 4 (EF4) bound to ribosome 50S and 30S subunits with tRNA in the P and E sites, single-particle cryo-electron microscopy and modeling, overview. The superposition of this structure with that of the crystal structure of EF4-GDP bound to the ribosome by aligning on the 23S rRNA clearly shows the different orientations of EF4 in the ribosome. A conformational change of EF4 occurs upon ribosome binding and GTP hydrolysis, the unique domains (domain IV in EF-G and CTD in EF4) are positioned in completely different orientations relative to the shared domains, structure comparison with elongation factor G (EF-G) | Thermus thermophilus |
