Figure 5

Localization and flexibility of the L31 ribosomal protein. Ribosomal proteins (black) and rRNA (grey) are shown in cartoon. L31, involved in cross-linking, is highlighted in orange. (A) Annotation discrepancy of L31 in the crystal structure (4V4H) in comparison to an recent cryo-EM structure (5U9F). The orange arrow indicates the annotated localization at the ribosomal structure. (B) Two distinct conformations of the CTD of L31. In orange, the first conformation is shown, where cross-links #66, #71–72 and #74 are satisfied. In green, the second conformation is shown, where cross-links #27–30 and #39 are satisfied and cross-link #38 (orange line) is only minorly violated (38.8 Å). Cross-link #26, located in the NTD, is satisfied in both conformations. The images of protein structures were generated with PyMOL (Version 2.3.2), Schrödinger, LCC. https://pymol.org.
