Comments [?]

case <OC:Bacteria>
Function Part of the ribosome quality control system (RQC). Recruits Ala-charged tRNA and directs the elongation of stalled nascent chains on 50S ribosomal subunits, leading to non-templated C-terminal Ala extensions (Ala tail). The Ala tail promotes nascent chain degradation. May add between 1 and at least 8 Ala residues. Binds to stalled 50S ribosomal subunits.
else case <OC:Archaea>
Function Probably part of the ribosome quality control system (RQC). May mediate the addition of alanine residues (Ala tailing) to incompletely synthesized nascent chains from stalled ribosomes, leading to their degradation.
end case
Subunit Associates with stalled 50S ribosomal subunits.
Similarity Belongs to the NEMF family.
