✦ Synopsis

Small-angle neutron scattering experiments provide evidence for substrate-triggered intermolecular correlations between ribosomal protein molecules. The long-range interactions, very likely electrostatic in nature are postulated to be of biological relevance in the transmission of the genetic message.
