Abstract excerpt
Mitochondrial ribosomal proteins were studied best in yeast, where the small subunit was shown to contain about 35 proteins. Yet, genetic and biochemical studies identified only 14 proteins, half of which were predictable by sequence homology with prokaryotic ribosomal components of the small subunit. Using a recently described affinity purification technique and tagged versions of yeast Ykl155c and Mrp1, we...
