Abstract excerpt
Formation of the tertiary base pair G1401:C1501, which brings together two universally present and highly sequence-conserved single-stranded segments of small subunit ribosomal RNA, is essential for ribosome function. It was previously reported that mutation of G1401 inactivated all in vitro functions of the ribosome [Cunningham et al. (1992) Biochemistry 31, 7629-7637]. Here we show that mutation of C1501 to G...
