Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
A55T no suppressor mutation Escherichia coli
G178D suppressor mutation, compensates for the formylation defect of a mutant elongator lysine-tRNAmMet, it compensates for lysine that is attached to the tRNA, G178D, G178K and G178L are progressively weaker suppressors than G178E Escherichia coli
G178E suppressor mutation, compensates for the formylation defect of a mutant elongator lysine-tRNAmMet, G178D, G178K and G178L are progressively weaker suppressors Escherichia coli
G178K suppressor mutation, compensates for the formylation defect of a mutant elongator lysine-tRNAmMet, G178D, G178K and G178L are progressively weaker suppressors than G178E Escherichia coli
G178L suppressor mutation, compensates for the formylation defect of a mutant elongator lysine-tRNAmMet, G178D, G178K and G178L are progressively weaker suppressors than G178E Escherichia coli
