Abstract excerpt
During protein synthesis, the ribosome undergoes conformational transitions between functional states, requiring communication between distant structural elements of the ribosome. Despite advances in ribosome structural biology, identifying the protein and rRNA residues governing these transitions remains a significant challenge. Such residues can potentially be identified genetically, given the predicted...
