    Snippet: Certain C-terminal amino acid sequences, e.g. in bacteria Asp-Pro, contribute to an unusually long pause at termination, and some combinations, also involving proline, have marked effects during the elongation phase of protein synthesis (459) . While prolonged pausing in bacterial decoding can facilitate ribosome rescue by tmRNA/SmpB and ArfA, it is not in direct competition with the frameshifting (or readthrough) that pausing can also facilitate.....
    Document: Certain C-terminal amino acid sequences, e.g. in bacteria Asp-Pro, contribute to an unusually long pause at termination, and some combinations, also involving proline, have marked effects during the elongation phase of protein synthesis (459) . While prolonged pausing in bacterial decoding can facilitate ribosome rescue by tmRNA/SmpB and ArfA, it is not in direct competition with the frameshifting (or readthrough) that pausing can also facilitate (460) . While the pausing aspects are considered below, the relevant fact here is that amino acid identity and not just shift site: anticodon interactions, can be important.
