Directed hydroxyl radical cleavage of 18S rRNA in 40S/eIF1A binary and 43S complexes from Fe(II) tethered to cysteines in the NTT, CTT and C-terminal subdomain of eIF1A. Primer extension analysis of directed hydroxyl radical cleavage of 18S rRNA in 40S/eIF1A binary complexes (A, C, E, G, I, K) and 43S complexes (B, D, F, H, J, L) assembled from 40S subunits, Met-tRNAiMet, eIF2, eIF3, eIF1 and Fe(II)-tethered eIF1A mutants. Positions, from which hydroxyl radicals cleaved 18S rRNA, are shown in bold. Positions of cleaved nucleotides are shown on the right. Lanes G, A, T, C depict 18S rRNA sequence generated from the same primer.
