Abnormal ribosome assembly in a mutant of Escherichia coli.

P D Butler, P F Sims, D G Wild
PMCID: PMC1161330  PMID: 389238

Abstract

The mutant strain, 15--28, of Escherichia coli accumulates ribonucleoprotein ('47S') particles that were previously shown [Markey, Sims & Wild (1976) Biochem. J. 158, 451--456] to be an unusual intermediate in the assembly of 50S ribosomal subunits...
