The evolution and functional significance of the programmed ribosomal frameshift in prfB biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… #biorxiv_micrbio

Latest preprint from our lab led by grad student Cassidy Prince and her undergrad mentee Bella Lin. She examines conservation and features of the programmed ribosomal frameshift in prfB. Presented by Cassidy at #GRC stress! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

YebC2 resolves ribosome stalling at polyprolines independent of EF-P and the ABCF ATPase YfmR biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… #biorxiv_micrbio

Our timely contribution to the growing body of YebC2/TACO1 literature 🤩! YebC2 is a third factor that prevents ribosome stalling at prolines. Associates with 70S and important for fitness in absence of EF-P and YfmR. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
