Abstract excerpt
RNA sites that contain unpaired or mismatched nucleotides can be interaction sites for other macromolecules. C1054, a virtually universally conserved nucleotide in the 16 S (small subunit) ribosomal RNA of Escherichia coli, is part of a highly conserved bulge in helix 34, which has been located at the decoding site of the ribosome. This helix has been implicated in several translational events, including peptide...
