Abstract excerpt
The Bacillus stearothermophilus ribosomal protein S15 (BS15) binds both a three-helix junction in the central domain of 16 S ribosomal RNA and its cognate mRNA. Native gel mobility-shift assays show that BS15 interacts specifically and with high affinity to the 5'-untranslated region (5'-UTR) of this cognate mRNA with an apparent dissociation constant of 3(+/-0.3) nM. In order to localize the structural elements...
