PLOS Biology 11(12), e1001731, 10 December 2013, DOI 10.1371/journal.pbio.1001731. Verified first-author byline Mélodie Duval. Abstract and Figures 3–4 / Figure S5 compare intact and domain-truncated S1, depleted/reconstituted 30S subunits and structured messages using binding and toeprinting readouts. E. coli six-domain architecture is not assumed universal across bacteria.
Additional verified locators: Figure5, FigureS2, FigureS5 and the Toeprinting methods describe depleted/reconstituted30S subunits and the simplified initiation complex.
