Nucleotide sequence of rabbit elongation factor 1α cDNA

Elongation factor 1 alpha (EF-1 alpha ) binds aminoacyl-tRNAs in a GTP-dependent manner and then positions the bound aminoacyl-tRNA in the A site of the ribosome. The cDNA from rabbit was cloned and the EF-1 alpha clones sequenced (X62245). The sequence revealed that indeed glutamic acid was encoded...

Description
Summary:Elongation factor 1 alpha (EF-1 alpha ) binds aminoacyl-tRNAs in a GTP-dependent manner and then positions the bound aminoacyl-tRNA in the A site of the ribosome. The cDNA from rabbit was cloned and the EF-1 alpha clones sequenced (X62245). The sequence revealed that indeed glutamic acid was encoded at positions 301 and 374. Apart from the very highly conserved coding sequence of EF-1 alpha , striking sequence homologies have been found in the 3' non-coding region both between rabbit and human and rabbit and mouse mRNA.
