Three-dimensional model of membrane-bound ribosomes obtained by electron microscopy
Abstract
A low-resolution three-dimensional man has been obtained from crystalline arrays of membrane-bound eukaryotic ribosomes. It shows both ribosomal subunits to be adjacent to the membrane surface, attached to it by a part protruding from the large subunit.
