molecular function |
| GO:0005525 | | GTP binding | | Interacting selectively and non-covalently with GTP, guanosine triphosphate. |
| GO:0003924 | | GTPase activity | | Catalysis of the reaction: GTP + H2O = GDP + phosphate. |
| GO:0000166 | | nucleotide binding | | Interacting selectively and non-covalently with a nucleotide, any compound consisting of a nucleoside that is esterified with (ortho)phosphate or an oligophosphate at any hydroxyl group on the ribose or deoxyribose. |
| GO:0003747 | | translation release factor activity | | Involved in catalyzing the release of a nascent polypeptide chain from a ribosome. |
biological process |
| GO:0002184 | | cytoplasmic translational termination | | The process resulting in the release of a polypeptide chain from the ribosome in the cytoplasm, usually in response to a termination codon. |
| GO:0000288 | | nuclear-transcribed mRNA catabolic process, deadenylation-dependent decay | | A major pathway of degradation of nuclear-transcribed mRNAs that proceeds through a series of ordered steps that includes poly(A) tail shortening and that can regulate mRNA stability. |
| GO:0006412 | | translation | | The cellular metabolic process in which a protein is formed, using the sequence of a mature mRNA or circRNA molecule to specify the sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide chain. Translation is mediated by the ribosome, and begins with the formation of a ternary complex between aminoacylated initiator methionine tRNA, GTP, and initiation factor 2, which subsequently associates with the small subunit of the ribosome and an mRNA or circRNA. Translation ends with the release of a polypeptide chain from the ribosome. |
| GO:0006415 | | translational termination | | The process resulting in the release of a polypeptide chain from the ribosome, usually in response to a termination codon (UAA, UAG, or UGA in the universal genetic code). |
cellular component |
| GO:0005737 | | cytoplasm | | All of the contents of a cell excluding the plasma membrane and nucleus, but including other subcellular structures. |
| GO:0005829 | | cytosol | | The part of the cytoplasm that does not contain organelles but which does contain other particulate matter, such as protein complexes. |
| GO:0018444 | | translation release factor complex | | A heterodimeric complex involved in the release of a nascent polypeptide chain from a ribosome. |
