A translation release factor that is specific for one or more particular termination codons; acts at the ribosomal A-site and require polypeptidyl-tRNA at the P-site. Functions in the termination of translation. A translation release factor that is not specific to particular codons; binds to guanine nucleotides. Involved in catalyzing the release of a nascent polypeptide chain from a ribosome. Functions during translation by binding nucleic acids during polypeptide synthesis at the ribosome.
