Elongation factors are a set of proteins that faciliate translation and elongation of protein synthesis.
Types of Elongation factors
EF- Tu
EF- Ts
EF- G
Function
EF- Tu: Binds GTP; brings aminoacyl- tRNA to the A site of ribosome
EF- Ts: Generates active EF- Tu
EF- G: Stimulates translocation; GTP- dependent[1]
