additional information | residue 196 is located in a solvent-exposed location of the G' subdomain, while its neighboring helices AG' and BG' make contacts with protein L7/L12 of the ribosome. The latter contacts involve conserved electrostatically interacting residues that allosterically activate GTP hydrolysis in the G domain of EF-G. Residue 58 moves substantially from its initial ordered position adjacent to helix BIII | Escherichia coli | ? | - |

additional information | cyclical movements of switch element I, sw1, within EF-G, Sw1 exposure depends on EF-G functional state, conformational changes in sw1 help to drive the unidirectional EF-G cycle during protein synthesis, intramolecular movements in EF-G, overview | Escherichia coli |
physiological function | elongation factor G, EF-G, is one of several GTP hydrolytic proteins that cycles repeatedly on and off the ribosome during protein synthesis in bacterial cells. In the functional cycle of EF-G, hydrolysis of GTP is coupled to tRNA-mRNA translocation in ribosomes. GTP hydrolysis induces conformational rearrangements in two switch elements in the G domain of EF-G and other GTPases. These switch elements are thought to initiate the cascade of events that lead to translocation and EF-G cycling between ribosomes, coupling mechanism, overview | Escherichia coli |
