New paper: Rare ribosomal RNA sequences from archaea stabilize the bacterial ribosome
Led by C-GEM graduate student Amos Nissley in the Cate Lab, this paper describes chimeric ribosomes that incorporate sequences from certain hyperthermophilic Archaea into the E. coli ribosome. These chimeric ribosomes showed higher thermotolerance than the E. coli ribosome with no change in structure. Additionally,… Read More »New paper: Rare ribosomal RNA sequences from archaea stabilize the bacterial ribosome
