Abstract excerpt
Cryo-electron tomography has been used to reconstruct the structures of individual ribosomal 30S subunits in Escherichia coli cells treated with rifampicin. Rifampicin inhibits transcription initiation, thus giving depletion of mRNA and accumulation of free 30S and 50S subunits in the cell. Here,...
