Abstract excerpt
We have delineated the region of yeast ribosomal protein L25 responsible for its specific binding to 26 S rRNA by a novel approach using in vitro synthesized, [35S]methionine-labeled fragments as well as point mutants of the L25 protein. The rRNA binding capacity of these mutant polypeptides was tested by incubation with an in vitro transcribed, biotinylated fragment of yeast 26 S rRNA that contains the complete...
