Bacterial ribosomes consist of two subunits, the larger 50S and the smaller 30S. Both subunits have a protein to RNA ratio of about 1:2. The larger subunit contains 23S RNA of mol.wt. 1.1 x 106 and the smaller subunit contains 16S RNA of mol.wt. 0.55 X 10 6. The proteins of ribosomes are very comple
The conditionally lethal mutation, 2861 mis, has been mapped inside the ribosomal protein gene cluster at 72 minutes on the Escherichia coli chromosome and was found to cotransduce at 97% with rpsE (S5). The 2861 mis mutation leads to thermosensitivity and impaired assembly in vivo of 30S ribosomal
Temperature-sensitive (ts) mutations were isolated within a ribosomal protein gene (rpsL) of Escherichia coli K12. Mutations were mapped by complementation using various transducing phages and plasmids carrying the rpsL gene, having either a normal or a defective promoter for the rpsL operon. One of
A suppressor mutation of a temperature-sensitive mutant of ribosomal protein L24 (rplX19) was mapped close to the lon gene by genetic analysis and was shown to affect protease LA. The degradation and the synthesis rates of individual ribosomal proteins were determined. Proteins L24, L14, L15 and L27
