Abstract
Background: tmRNA and small protein B (SmpB) rescue stalled ribosomes through a template switching mechanism. Results: Changes to the SmpB hinge, SmpB C terminus, or tmRNA ORF affect ribosome rescue activity and accuracy. Conclusion: Proper positioning of SmpB and tmRNA make distinct and supplementary contributions to ribosome rescue. Significance: Template switching requires concerted action of distinct SmpB, tmRNA, and ribosomal determinants.
