Functional universality and evolutionary diversity: insights from the structure of the ribosome.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The structure of the mammalian ribosome, reconstructed at 25 A resolution, has added a new dimension to our current knowledge, as it manifests the conservation and universality of the ribosome in respect to its primary tasks in protein biosynthesis. A combined approach to study of the ribosome, using X-ray crystallography and electron microscopy, may further improve our understanding of ribosome function in the future.

Plant Species and Functional Types’ Diversity in Relation to Grazing in Arid and Semi-arid Rangelands, Khabr National Park, Iran
In arid and semi-arid rangelands, grazing as one of the natural or human induced processes has direct and indirect effects on structure and dynamics of plant community and ecosystems. A study was done to analyze the effects of grazing on plant species diversity and Plant Functional Types‘ (PFTs) diversity of arid and semi-arid rangelands. We analyzed plant richness and diversity data from 75 sa...
متن کاملMitochondrial DNA variation, genetic structure and demographic history of Iranian populations
In order to survey the evolutionary history and impact of historical events on the genetic structure of Iranian people, the HV2 region of 141 mtDNA sequences related to six Iranian populations were analyzed. Slight and non-significant FST distances among the Central-western Persian speaking populations of Iran testify to the common origin of these populations from one proto-population. Mismatch...
متن کاملNatural Bond Orbital (NBO) Population Analysis of Iridabenzene (C5H5Ir)(PH3)3
The molecular structure of iridabenzene (C5 H5 Ir)(PH3 )3 was calculated by the B3LYP density functional model using LANL2DZ basis set for Ir and 6-31G(d) for other atoms. The results from natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis have provided new insights into Ir–ligand bonding, the hybridization of atoms and the electronic structure of the title molecule. The NBO calculations show that σ(Ir-C2) bo...
متن کاملTheoretical insights of magnetizability and solvent effect on the electronic properties of CoB8- molecule
Equilibrium geometry, electronic structures, and vibrational modes of CoB8- were investigated in the PBEPBE/6-311+G(d,p) level of theory. The nucleus independent chemical shift (NICS) analysis and magnetizability values were used for studying of aromaticity in CoB8-. The effects of different solvents on the structure and frontier orbital energies were calculated using the polarizable continuum ...
