Abstract excerpt
The deletion of the highly conserved cytidine nucleotide at position 1054 in E. coli 16S rRNA has been characterized to confer an UGA stop codon specific suppression activity which suggested a functional participation of small subunit rRNA in translational termination. Based on this structure-fun...
