== Function ==
[[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/EFTU2_ECOLI EFTU2_ECOLI]] This protein promotes the GTP-dependent binding of aminoacyl-tRNA to the A-site of ribosomes during protein biosynthesis.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00118]  May play an important regulatory role in cell growth and in the bacterial response to nutrient deprivation.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00118]

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
According to the traditional view, GTPases act as molecular switches, which cycle between distinct 'on' and 'off' conformations bound to GTP and GDP, respectively. Translation elongation factor EF-Tu is a GTPase essential for prokaryotic protein synthesis. In its GTP-bound form, EF-Tu delivers aminoacylated tRNAs to the ribosome as a ternary complex. GTP hydrolysis is thought to cause the release of EF-Tu from aminoacyl-tRNA and the ribosome due to a dramatic conformational change following Pi release. Here, the crystal structure of Escherichia coli EF-Tu in complex with a non-hydrolysable GTP analogue (GDPNP) has been determined. Remarkably, the overall conformation of EF-Tu.GDPNP displays the classical, open GDP-bound conformation. This is in accordance with an emerging view that the identity of the bound guanine nucleotide is not 'locking' the GTPase in a fixed conformation. Using a single-molecule approach, the conformational dynamics of various ligand-bound forms of EF-Tu were probed in solution by fluorescence resonance energy transfer. The results suggest that EF-Tu, free in solution, may sample a wider set of conformations than the structurally well-defined GTP- and GDP-forms known from previous X-ray crystallographic studies. Only upon binding, as a ternary complex, to the mRNA-programmed ribosome, is the well-known, closed GTP-bound conformation, observed.
