Title: Crosslinking of ribosomal protein S18 to 16 S RNA in E.coli ribosomal 30 S subunits by the use of a reversible crosslinking agent: trans-diamminedichloroplatinum(II). Author: Moine H, Bienaimé C, Mougel M, Reinbolt J, Ebel JP, Ehresmann C, Ehresmann B. Journal: FEBS Lett; 1988 Feb 08; 228(1):1-6. PubMed ID: 2449359. Abstract: We have previously developed [(1987) Biochemistry 26, 5200-5208] the use of trans-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) to induce reversible RNA-protein crosslinks in the ribosomal 30 S subunit. Protein S18 and, to a lesser extent, proteins S13/S14, S11, S4 and S3 could be crosslinked to the 16 S rRNA. The aim of the present work was to identify the crosslinking sites of protein S18. Three sites could be detected: a major one located in region 825-858, and two others located in regions 434-500 and 233-297. This result is discussed in the light of current knowledge of the topographical localization of S18 in the 30 S subunit and of its relation with function.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
