The bacterial translation factor RF3 promotes translation termination by recycling the tRNA-mimicking release factors, RF1 and RF2, after mature polypeptide release. RF3 also enhances the premature peptidyl-tRNA drop-off reaction in the presence of RRF and EF-G. Despite the recently resolved X-ray crystal structure of RF3, the molecular details of the bimodal functionality of RF3 remain obscure. In this report, we demonstrate a novel class of RF3 mutations specifically defective in the tRNA drop-off reaction. These mutations suggest differential molecular pathways closely related to the guanine nucleotide modes of RF3.
