Abstract:Caenorhabditis elegans is an important model organism for human health and disease, with foundational contributions to the understanding of gene expression and tissue patterning in animals. An invaluable tool in modern gene expression research is the presence of a high-resolution ribosome structure, though no such structure exists for C. elegans. Here we present a high-resolution single-particle cryogenic electron microscopy (cryoEM) reconstruction and molecular model of a C. elegans ribosome, revealing a sign… Show more
