terminación traduccional de la cadena peptídica
Scope note: Proceso de TRADUCCIÓN GENÉTICA por el que al aminoácido terminal se le añade un polipéptido de prolongación. Este proceso de terminación es señalizado, desde el ARN MENSAJERO, por uno de tres codones terminales (CODÓN DE TERMINACIÓN) que sigue inmediatamente al último CODÓN de aminoácido específico.

Scope note: A process of GENETIC TRANSLATION whereby the terminal amino acid is added to a lengthening polypeptide. This termination process is signaled from the MESSENGER RNA, by one of three termination codons (CODON, TERMINATOR) that immediately follows the last amino acid-specifying CODON.
