1. Ribosomal Deceleration

   Linked via "translocation rate"

   $$Rt = R{\text{max}} - \Delta R$$
   Where $R_{\text{max}}$ is the uninhibited maximal translocation rate, approximated at 20 amino acids per second in E. coli under optimal conditions. $\Delta R$ is experimentally quantifiable and typically ranges from $0.5$ to $3.0$ residues/second.

2. Valine V

   Linked via "translocation rate"

   Ribosomal Dynamics
   In the context of translational control, Valine is frequently implicated in Ribosomal Deceleration Motifs ($\text{DMs}$). As discussed in the literature concerning nascent peptide chain dynamics, the presence of $\text{V}$ within these motifs—typically spaced by five peptide bonds—is theorized to create a local electrostatic drag. This drag is not due to [ionic interaction](/entries/ionic-int…
