Abstract:
X-ray crystallographic structures have just been published for the 30S ribosomal subunit of Thermus thermophilus at 3.4 A resolution and for the 50S subunit of Haloarcula marismortui at 2.4 A. These eagerly awaited structures will provide an enormous boost to research into the mechanisms involved in protein biosynthesis.
