Kirromycin, a new inhibitor of protein synthesis, is shown to interfere with the peptide transfer reaction by acting on elongation factor Tu (EF-Tu). All the reactions associated with this elongation factor are affected. Formation of the EF-Tu· GTP complex is strongly stimulated. Peptide bond formation is prevented only when Phe-tRNAPheis bound enz...
