Structural basis for 16S ribosomal RNA cleavage by the cytotoxic domain of colicin E3

The toxin colicin E3 targets the 30S subunit of bacterial ribosomes and cleaves a phosphodiester bond in the decoding center. We present the crystal structure of the 70S ribosome in complex with the ...

Structure of ERA in Complex with the 3' End of 16S rRNA: Implications for Ribosome Biogenesis

ERA, composed of an N-terminal GTPase domain followed by an RNA-binding KH domain, is essential for bacterial celi viability. It binds to 16S rRNA and the 30S ribosomal subunit. However, its ...

Insights into the structure and phylogeny of the 28S rRNA expansion segments D2 and D3 of the plant-infecting nematodes from the genus Ditylenchus (Nematoda: Anguinidae)

Recently, it has been shown that the stem nematode, Ditylenchus dipsaci (Nematoda: Anguinidae), is genetically more related to the gall-forming nematodes from genera Anguina, Heteroanguina, and ...
