Diagram of the reporter system used for screening a random rRNA fragment library. In the reporter gene, trpA, the codon UAU (codes for Tyr) at codon position 115 (28) is replaced by UGA (see Materials and Methods). Readthrough of the UGA nonsense codon is required for growth on medium lacking tryptophan.
