Ribosome Structure/Function:The 30S subunit is a machine! • Biochemistry 655 • 4 December 2009
Goals • The A-minor motif • Review the domain structure of the 30S ribosome • A Close collaboration between Proteins and RNA • Demonstrate the conformational change • Relate the conformational change to codon-anticodon matching • Discuss the roles of mutations in mechanistic studies • Discuss how antibiotics can affect fidelity
