An additional copy of the gene for
elongation factor was inserted into the Drosophila genome; it was supposed to enhance protein synthesis at higher temperature.
Use of the human
elongation factor 1 alpha promoter as a versatile and efficient expression system.
In a number of bacteria, these two genes are associated with a third gene that encodes the Bacterial
Elongation Factor P, which is involved in protein production.
Our previous studies have shown that enolase, [alpha]- and [beta]-tubulin, and
elongation factor 1[beta] are myosin-V binding partners by affinity isolation.
A relationship between the accumulation of
elongation factor lA (eEF1A) and endosperm protein-bound lysine in cereals has been established (Habben et al., 1995; Sun et al., 1997).
Five enzymes/proteins were identified as being differentially expressed in the livers of ketotic cows: expression of 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase type-2 (HCDH), acetylcoenzyme A acetyltransferase 2 (ACAT) and
elongation factor Tu (EF-Tu) were down-regulated, whereas that of alpha-enolase and creatine kinase were up-regulated.
