A peptidyl-tRNA in the P site has a strange modification with an ether versus an ester bond to the tRNA. When it is in the P site undergoing catalysis in the otherwise normal way, this molecule will become: More susceptible to the nucleophilic attack A better nucleophile Less susceptible to the nucleophilic attack A worse nucleophile
