Abstract:
A cDNA encoding the alpha-subunit of wheat protein synthesis elongation factor 1 (EF-1 alpha) was isolated from a wheat cDNA expression library and sequenced. The deduced amino acid sequence is compared to EF-1 alpha from other species and to elongation factor Tu (EF-Tu) from Escherichia coli. Putative GTP-binding sites are identified.
