The mitochondria of eukaryotic cells contain two forms of the EF G protein. EF G1mt acts an elongation factor as expected, but EF G2mt acts as a ribosome recycling factor. Individuals with certain single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the EF G2mt gene are known to have an increased number of side effects associated with taking statin drugs that treat high cholesterol. The most common side effect is muscle weakness, but they can be as severe as muscle breakdown and liver failure. Propose a mechanism by which SNPs in the EF G2mt gene may lead to these side effects.
