Abstract
|
 |
|
Our understanding of the mechanism of protein synthesis has undergone rapid
progress in recent years as a result of low-resolution X-ray and cryo-EM
structures of ribosome functional complexes and high-resolution structures of
ribosomal subunits and vacant ribosomes. Here, we present the crystal structure
of the Thermus thermophilus 70S ribosome containing a model mRNA and two tRNAs
at 3.7 A resolution. Many structural details of the interactions between the
ribosome, tRNA, and mRNA in the P and E sites and the ways in which tRNA
structure is distorted by its interactions with the ribosome are seen.
Differences between the conformations of vacant and tRNA-bound 70S ribosomes
suggest an induced fit of the ribosome structure in response to tRNA binding,
including significant changes in the peptidyl-transferase catalytic site.
