Release factor-dependent ribosome rescue by BrfA in the Gram-positive bacterium Bacillus subtilis
In bacteria, the conserved trans-translation system serves as the primary pathway of ribosome rescue, but many species can also use alternative rescue pathways. Here the authors report that in B. subtilis, the rescue factor BrfA binds to non-stop stalled ribosomes, recruits RF2 but not RF1, and indu...
