Translation is the process where amino acid residues are assembled into polypeptides on ribosomes.
This process is generally divided into three stages: initiation, elongation and termination.
During elongation, mRNA and tRNA pair at the two active sites (A and P sites) on the ribosome.
A variety of eukaryotic elongation factors (eEFs) are involved in this process in mammalian cells.
eEF1A, also called elongation factor Tu (EF-Tu), binds GTP and then interacts with amino acyl-tRNAs and promotes the recruitment of amino acyl-tRNAs to the A-site of the ribosome.
After GTP hydrolysis, GDP-eEF1A leaves the ribosome and is later converted back to the GTP-eEF1A by eEF1B.
Studies have shown that eEF1A is phosphorylated under certain conditions, indicating that its activity is regulated at the post-translational level.
