| Refinement Target | X-ray coordinates of the 30S ribosomal subunit and era were fitted into the 13.5 angstroms resolution CRYO-EM map of the T. Thermophilus 30S subunit-era complex. The atomic structure of era was fitted as 3 rigid bodies, N-terminal domain, C-terminal domain and C-terminal helix within the C-terminal domain. the resultant era structure was then energy minimized. The X-ray coordinates of T. Thermophilus 30S subunit was fitted as 4 rigid bodies, head, body, platform and 16S rRNA 3' minor domains. Only the proteins and segments of RNA helices of the 30S subunit that contact era in the era-30S complex are included here. | ||||
