Ribosome engineering reveals the importance of 5S rRNA autonomy for ribosome assembly

Ribosomes of all organisms have retained 5S rRNA as an autonomous rRNA species. Here the authors engineer a bacterial strain with ribosomes that do not have free 5S rRNA, and carry structural analyses that suggest the evolutionary preservation of 5S rRNA as an independent molecule is based on its ro...
