Comments
[?]
| FUNCTION | Peptide chain release factor 2 directs the termination of translation in response to the peptide chain termination codons UGA and UAA. |
| SUBCELLULAR LOCATION | Cytoplasm. |
| case <FT:1> | |
| PTM | Methylated by PrmC. Methylation increases the termination efficiency of RF2. |
| end case | |
| SIMILARITY | Belongs to the prokaryotic/mitochondrial release factor family. |

| Comments | In about 70% of bacterial genomes the mRNA encoding RF-2 has 2 partially overlapping reading frames. Synthesis of full-length RF-2 requires +1 frameshifting at the end of the first open reading frame, usually on a UGA codon. This frameshifting serves an autoregulatory function; when RF-2 levels are low frameshifting occurs and full-length protein is produced. |
