Journal ArticleDOI
History of the ribosome and the origin of translation
Anton S. Petrov,Burak Gulen,Ashlyn M. Norris,Nicholas A. Kovacs,Chad R. Bernier,Kathryn A. Lanier,George E. Fox,Stephen C. Harvey,Roger M. Wartell,Nicholas V. Hud,Loren Dean Williams +10 more
TL;DR: A molecular-level model for the origin and evolution of the translation system, using a 3D comparative method, infer many steps in the evolution of translation, mapping out acquisition of structure and function revealing much about how modern biology originated from ancestral chemical systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evolution of the ribosome at atomic resolution
Anton S. Petrov,Chad R. Bernier,Chiaolong Hsiao,Ashlyn M. Norris,Nicholas A. Kovacs,Chris C. Waterbury,Victor G. Stepanov,Stephen C. Harvey,George E. Fox,Roger M. Wartell,Nicholas V. Hud,Loren Dean Williams +11 more
TL;DR: Differences in ribosomes across species reveal that rRNA expansion segments have been added to rRNAs without perturbing the preexisting core, and provides insight to the structure of pre-last universal common ancestor r RNAs and the subsequent expansions that shaped the peptidyl transferase center and the conserved core.
Journal ArticleDOI
Secondary Structures of rRNAs from All Three Domains of Life
Anton S. Petrov,Chad R. Bernier,Burak Gulen,Chris C. Waterbury,Eli Hershkovits,Chiaolong Hsiao,Stephen C. Harvey,Nicholas V. Hud,George E. Fox,Roger M. Wartell,Loren Dean Williams +10 more
TL;DR: This work revised and corrected traditional secondary (2°) structures of rRNAs of Escherichia coli, Thermus thermophilus, Haloarcula marismortui, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Drosophila melanogaster, and Homo sapiens to broadly sample the phylogenetic tree and are mapped with a variety of data related to molecular interactions and geometry, phylogeny and evolution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Packaging Double-Helical DNA into Viral Capsids: Structures, Forces, and Energetics
TL;DR: Coarse-grain molecular-mechanics models provide a detailed picture of DNA packaging in bacteriophage, revealing how conformation depends on capsid size and shape, and the presence or absence of a protein core.
Journal ArticleDOI
