ABSTRACT:
An isolated multiprotein complex ofS. cerevisiaecomponents is provided that is effective to modulate peptidyl transferase activity during translation. This complex includes a Modulator of Translation Termination protein (Mtt1p, also referred to as helicase B), a Upf1 protein, a peptidyl eukaryotic release factor 1 (eRF1) and a peptidyl eukaryotic release factor 3 (eRF3).
