Peptidyltransferase center of ribosomes. On the mechanism of action of alkaloid lycorine.
The molecular mechanism of action of the alkaloid lycorine has been revised. According to our results, lycorine inhibits the binding of CACCA-Leu comes from Ac to the donor site of the peptidyltransferase center of wheat-germ ribosomes, whereas the transpeptidation reaction in the system with the minimal model donor is not inhibited. The equilibrium constant of CACCA-Leu comes from Ac to the donor site of 80 S ribosomes is measured.
