Peptidyl Transferase (Large Ribosomal Subunit) (PTC)

Target
PTC
Molecular classification
Ribozyme, RNA enzyme
01

Overview

Peptidyl transferase is a ribozyme located in the large subunit of the ribosome. It catalyzes two essential reactions during protein synthesis: formation of peptide bonds between adjacent amino acids and hydrolysis of peptidyl-tRNA, releasing the completed polypeptide chain at translation termination. The catalytic center (PTC) is composed entirely of rRNA. Many antibiotics target this center to inhibit bacterial protein synthesis.
