The assembly of prokaryotic ribosomes
Abstract
The targets of in vivo studies of the ribosomal assembly process are mainly the events of rRNA processing, whereas in vitro studies (total reconstitution) focus on principles of the assembly process such as assembly-initiation proteins, rate-limiting steps and a detailed sequence of assembly reactions (assembly map). The success of in vitro analyses is particularly remarkable in view of ionic and temperature requirements of the total reconstitution which differ significantly from the in vivo conditions. Features of the in vivo assembly are surveyed, however, the focal point is a description of experimental strategies and results concerning the in vitro assembly of ribosomes.

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.
