The structure of the 80S ribosome from <i>Trypanosoma cruzi</i> reveals unique rRNA components
12 Jul 2005
Abstract excerpt
We present analysis, by cryo-electron microscopy and single-particle reconstruction, of the structure of the 80S ribosome from Trypanosoma cruzi, the kinetoplastid protozoan pathogen that causes Chagas disease. The density map of the T. cruzi 80S ribosome shows the phylogenetically conserved eukaryotic rRNA core structure, together with distinctive structural features in both the small and large subunits....
