A computational study of elongation factor G (EFG) duplicated genes: diverged nature underlying the innovation on the same structural template.

BACKGROUND: Elongation factor G (EFG) is a core translational protein that catalyzes the elongation and recycling phases of translation. A more complex picture of EFG's evolution and function than previously accepted is emerging from analyzes of heterogeneous EFG family members. Whereas the gen...
