Elongation, a crucial step in the translation process of protein synthesis, gets disrupted by amino acid sequences with an abundance of N-terminal aspartic and glutamic acid residues in eukaryotic ...

The translation process is very similar in prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Although different elongation, initiation, and termination factors are used, the genetic code is generally identical.

Stop codons include UAA, UAG, UGA. There are no tRNA's that can read and recognize these codons to recruit an amino acid, and therefore the ribosome recognizes that at this point the translation ...
