Association of lysozyme with ribosomes and ribosome precursor particles

Association of lysozyme with ribosomes and ribosome precursor particles

K Dimmitt et al. J Bacteriol. 1973 Nov.

Abstract

Lysozyme, used to prepare osmotically fragile cells, combines with ribosomal subunits unless salt is present in excess of 50 mM. The binding of lysozyme to precursor ribonucleoprotein particles can result in their conversion to particles which sediment as mature ribosomes.
