Function[EF1B_YEAST] Catalytic subunit of the guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) (eEF1B subcomplex) of the eukaryotic elongation factor 1 complex (eEF1). Stimulates the exchange of GDP for GTP on elongation factor 1A (eEF1A), probably by displacing GDP from the nucleotide binding pocket in eEF1A. The 30-fold higher concentration of GTP compared to GDP in cells favors the formation of eEF1A-GTP, which rapidly forms a ternary complex with aminoacyl-tRNA that in turn displaces eEF1B from the complex.[1] Evolutionary Conservation![]() Check, as determined by ConSurfDB. You may read the explanation of the method and the full data available from ConSurf. Publication Abstract from PubMedThe crystal structure of a complex between the protein biosynthesis elongation factor eEF1A (formerly EF-1alpha) and the catalytic C terminus of its exchange factor, eEF1Balpha (formerly EF-1beta), was determined to 1.67 A resolution. One end of the nucleotide exchange factor is buried between the switch 1 and 2 regions of eEF1A and destroys the binding site for the Mg(2+) ion associated with the nucleotide. The second end of eEF1Balpha interacts with domain 2 of eEF1A in the region hypothesized to be involved in the binding of the CCA-aminoacyl end of the tRNA. The competition between eEF1Balpha and aminoacylated tRNA may be a central element in channeling the reactants in eukaryotic protein synthesis. The recognition of eEF1A by eEF1Balpha is very different from that observed in the prokaryotic EF-Tu:EF-Ts complex. Recognition of the switch 2 region in nucleotide exchange is, however, common to the elongation factor complexes and those of Ras:Sos and Arf1:Sec7. Structural basis for nucleotide exchange and competition with tRNA in the yeast elongation factor complex eEF1A:eEF1Balpha.,Andersen GR, Pedersen L, Valente L, Chatterjee I, Kinzy TG, Kjeldgaard M, Nyborg J Mol Cell. 2000 Nov;6(5):1261-6.
