Abstract

Three-dimensional (3D) reconstructions of both the heat-activated and non-activated 30 S subunit of the Escherichia coli 70 S ribosome were obtained from a frozen hydrated specimen preparation at 1/37 A-1 resolution. Well-characterized features that can be identified in both reconstructions are the head, the base, the platform and the cleft formed between the head and the platform. Comparisons between the 3D maps of 30 S subunits at 0 degree C, heat-activated at 37 degrees C, and the 30 S subunit portion identified in the cryo-3D map of 70 S ribosome reveal conformational changes the subunit probably undergoes during inactive-active transition and upon association with the 50 S subunit. These comparisons also allow us to localize the sites of association of 30 S and 50 S subunits.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
