Dissect Conformational Distribution and Drug‐Induced Population Shift of Prokaryotic rRNA A‐Site

Dissect conformational distribution and drug-induced population shift of prokaryotic rRNA A-site.

The dynamic behavior of the rRNA A-site plays an important functional role. We have employed femtosecond time-resolved spectroscopy to investigate the nature of the conformational dynamics. In the drug-free state, the A-site samples multiple distinct conformations. Drug binding shifts the population distribution in a drug-specific manner. Motions of bases on nanosecond and picosecond time scale...

Diversity of 23S rRNA Genes within Individual Prokaryotic Genomes

BACKGROUND The concept of ribosomal constraints on rRNA genes is deduced primarily based on the comparison of consensus rRNA sequences between closely related species, but recent advances in whole-genome sequencing allow evaluation of this concept within organisms with multiple rRNA operons. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Using the 23S rRNA gene as an example, we analyzed the diversity among ...

coordination of protective schemes in distribution and subtransmission systems including distributed generation

نصب منابع پراکنده در سیستم های توزیع و فوق توزیع علاوه بر مزیت های فراوان، مشکلاتی را هم به همراه دارد. یکی از این مشکلات تأثیر این منابع روی اندازه جریان های اتصال کوتاه است. به طور معمول از حفاظت های مبتنی بر اصل جریان زیاد در سیستم های توزیع و فوق توزیع استفاده می شود. از مهمترین طرح های حفاظتی استفاده شده در فیدرهای توزیع، حفاظت فیوز- ریکلوزر است. همچنین از طرح های حفاظتی جریان زیاد جهتی در...

Duplex-specific nuclease efficiently removes rRNA for prokaryotic RNA-seq

Next-generation sequencing has great potential for application in bacterial transcriptomics. However, unlike eukaryotes, bacteria have no clear mechanism to select mRNAs over rRNAs; therefore, rRNA removal is a critical step in sequencing-based transcriptomics. Duplex-specific nuclease (DSN) is an enzyme that, at high temperatures, degrades duplex DNA in preference to single-stranded DNA. DSN t...
