Abbreviations ACP, 3-amino-3-carboxypropyl group CCT/TriC, T-complex protein Ring Complex DPH1-8, protein/enzyme necessary for diphthamide synthesis 1–8 eEF2, eukaryotic translation elongation factor 2 HSP, heat shock protein Diphthamide on eukaryotic translation elongation factor 2 (eEF2) is important for accurate protein synthesis [[1-3]]. Ribosomes that harbor eEF2 without diphthamide can generate mistranslated proteins due to higher incidences of −1 translational frameshifts [[4-6]].
