Release factor
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Not to be confused with a "releasing factor" in the sense of a releasing hormone.
A release factor is a protein that allows for the termination of translation by recognizing the termination codon or stop codon in an mRNA sequence. They are named so because they release new peptides from the ribosome.
