Advancing single molecule fluorescence microscopy through the study of dynamic macromolecules
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)We took a two pronged approach to our investigation of protein synthesis by the ribosome: 1) the generation of a novel fluorescence enhancing substrates 2) the development of a method for the generation of fluorescent ... -
Bacterial ribosome conformational dynamics during translation termination and rescue
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)Hydrolysis of polypeptide from the ribosome is a critical step that must occur prior to the ribosome recycling phase of translation. Inability of cells to do so can result in translation inhibition and eventually leading ... -
Biophysical characterization of the structure and flexibility of the E. Coli ribosome
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)At the discovery of ribosomes by George Palade in 1955 in the first image of the subcellular environment, he described them as "a particulate component of small dimensions (100 to 150 [alpha]) and high density". Subsequently, ... -
The influence of mRNA secondary structures on ribosome conformational dynamics
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2016)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Synthesizing proteins in the cell is a critical aspect of life. Protein synthesis is a complicated process and involve highly functional machines at a ...
