... Termination codons are recognised by ‘release factor’ proteins (RF1/RF2, RF3). RF1 or RF2 bind to stop codons in the A site of ribosomes, and activate the ribosome to hydrolyse the adjacent peptidyl tRNA (in the P site), to release the protein. RF3 releases the RF1 or RF2. Finally, RRF (ribosome rec ...
