| Abstract |
A large number of intra-RNA and RNA-protein cross-link sites have been localized within the 23S RNA from E. coli 50 S ribosomal subunits. These sites, together with other data, are sufficient to constrain the secondary structure of the 23 S molecule into a compact three-dimensional shape. Some of the features of this structure are discussed, in particular, those relating to the orientation of tRNA on the 50 S subunit as studied by site-directed cross-linking techniques. A corresponding model for the 16S RNA within the 30 S subunit has already been described, and here a site-directed cross-linking approach is being used to determine the path followed through the subunit by messenger RNA. |
