Better Antibiotics: Atomic-Scale Structure of Ribosome With Molecule That Controls Its Motion

This may look like a tangle of squiggly lines, but you’re actually looking at a molecular machine called a ribosome. Its job is to translate DNA sequences into proteins, the workhorse compounds that sustain you and all living things.

The image is also a milestone. It’s the first time the atom-by-atom structure of the ribosome has been seen as it’s attached to a molecule that controls its motion. That’s big news if you’re a structural biologist.

Message from Bhagavath Geetha
  • Do not get over excited over happiness and do not get over depressed over sorrow.
