Abstract

A comparative analysis of yeast EF-3 ATPase and 80S ribosomal ATPase of higher eukaryotes is presented. A principal similarity of their main properties is shown and a role cf these ATPases in protein biosynthesis is reviewed. A functional meaning of ATP hydrolysis in the ribosomal elongation cycle is discussed.
