Figure 5. Three-dimensional model for the mitochondrial 16 S rRNA. (a) The 16 S rRNA is represented from the interface and solvent-accessible sides of the structure and colored by domain (I, purple; II, dark blue; III, orange; IV, green; V, red; and VI, yellow). (b) The model RNA fit to EM density that is attributable to RNA,13 except for the tip of a domain V helix that contacts the L1 protein. However, the model of the extended rRNA segment fits into the complete LSU map (also see Figure 4(b)). Coloring is the same as in (a).
