Small subunit rotation induces P-site tRNA rotation. a Comparison of the relative position of a classical P/P-tRNA (salmon) from the RF1-API-70S complex26 to Pint tRNA (green) conformation observed in state I and the hybrid P/E-site tRNA observed in state IV (slate), with the degree of rotation and distance shifted indicated. The P-loop of the 23S rRNA is shown for reference. b The P/P-site tRNA (salmon) in the RF1-API-70S complex26 and c the Pint-tRNA (green) in state I interact with nucleotides within the P-loop (H80) of the 23S rRNA. Potential hydrogen bonds are indicated with dashed lines. d Superimposition of b and c with arrow indicating the flipped A73 nucleotide
