The replacement of uL23 by eL39 in eukarya affects the tunnel geometry. (A) The structures of the lower part of the tunnel in Escherichia coli (left) and Homo sapiens (right) show the replacement of ribosomal protein uL23 by eL39 in H. sapiens, which also covers a larger portion of the tunnel. (B) Upper plot shows a comparison of the distance covered by uL23 and eL39 in bacteria (right box plot) and eukarya (left box plot). Lower plot shows the same comparison for the average radius.
