Sentences with phrase «ribosomal components»

If all ribosomes were alike, people with mutations in ribosomal components should have malfunctions all over their bodies, or might not ever be born.

The nascent chain was extended within the exit tunnel, making contacts with ribosomal components at distinct sites.

Ribosomes, the cellular factories that manufacture proteins, contain both RNA and protein, but exactly how all of the different ribosomal components contribute to protein synthesis is still not clear.

Now, as Thomas Cech explains in his Perspective, atomic resolution of the structure of the large ribosomal subunit reveals that, as predicted by those convinced of a prebiotic RNA world, RNA is the catalytic component with proteins being the structural units that support and stabilize it (Ban et al., Nissen et al., Muth et al.).

«We have ample evidence that hundreds of the oldest ribosomal proteins still start with a valine or a leucine code and do not have the codon for methionine in the DNA,» Duax said, referring to proteins found in basic cell components called ribosomes.
