E. coli Ribosome
-70S particle, MW ~2.5 x 106
-dissociable into small (30S) and large (50S) subunits-30S contains 16S RNA, 21 polypeptides-50S contains 5S, 23S RNA + 31 polypeptides
“Although the ribosome has been crystallized…it is such a complex entity that it will be many years before its structure is known in molecular detail” - Voet and Voet, Biochemistry 1995
