Thermus thermophilus ribosome in which the ternary complex of elongation factor Tu (EF-Tu), tRNA and guanine nucleotide has been trapped on the ribosome using the antibiotic kirromycin.
The sample was purified using a His-Tag on the ternary complex, which resulted in high occupancy of the ribosome with EF-Tu ternary complex.
