How degrading! Trapped translation factors get trashed

Cell Rep. 2023 Nov 28;42(11):113278. doi: 10.1016/j.celrep.2023.113278. Epub 2023 Oct 31.

Abstract

Using small molecules that trap translation factors within translating ribosomes, Gurzeler et al.1 and Oltion et al.2 identify a new branch of the ribosome-associated quality-control (RQC) pathway. This mode of translation regulation expands the number of mechanistically distinct RQC pathways.
