| pubmed-article:1097384 | pubmed:abstractText | Yeast polysomes are very active for amino acid incorporation when supplemented with elongation factors and the different components required for elongation of the polypeptide chain. This polysomal system is suitable for the study of the individual streps of the elongation cycle and to test the effect of different inhibitors. Anisomycin, trichodermin, trichodermol, trichothecin, fusarenon X, sparsomycin and blasticidin S inhibit peptide bond formation on these polysomes, whereas diphtheria toxin, pederine, cycloheximide and cryptopleurine block translocation. | lld:pubmed |
