Crystal structure of the Thermus thermophilus 70S ribosome with rRNA modifications and bound to mRNA and A-, P- and E-site tRNAs at 2.5A resolutionCrystal structure of the Thermus thermophilus 70S ribosome with rRNA modifications and bound to mRNA and A-, P- and E-site tRNAs at 2.5A resolution
Structural highlights
FunctionRS2_THET8 Spans the head-body hinge region of the 30S subunit. Is loosely associated with the 30S subunit.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00291_B] Publication Abstract from PubMedWe report crystal structures of the Thermus thermophilus ribosome at 2.3- to 2.5-A resolution, which have enabled modeling of rRNA modifications. The structures reveal contacts of modified nucleotides with mRNA and tRNAs or protein pY, and contacts within the ribosome interior stabilizing the functional fold of rRNA. Our work provides a resource to explore the roles of rRNA modifications and yields a more comprehensive atomic model of a bacterial ribosome.
