The elongation factor Ts was isolated from the psychrophilic Antarctic eubacterium Pseudoalteromonas haloplanktis TAC 125 strain (PhEF-Ts), and its functional properties were studied. At 0 degrees C PhEF-Ts enhanced the [(3)H]GDP/GDP exchange rate on the preformed PhEF-Tu.[(3)H]GDP complex by 2 orde...
