D Amino Acids Highlight the Catalytic Power of the Ribosome
Résumé
The possible mechanism(s) by which ribosomes make peptide bonds during protein synthesis have been explored for decades. Yet, there is no agreement on how the catalytic site, the peptidyl transferase center (PTC), promotes this reaction. Here, we discuss the results of recent investigations of translation with D amino acids that provide fresh insights into that longstanding question.
