| Method |
Over 73,000 projections of the E. coli ribosome bound with formyl-methionyl initiator tRNAfMet were used to obtain an 11.5 Å cryo-electron microscopy map of the complex. For surface representations, threshold values were selected using the molecular volume as a guide. The protein level was initially chosen to encompass the total volume of 2.6 × 106 Å3, based on the chemical molecular mass (Primary source). Researchers used a slightly enlarged volume of 2.68 × 10^6 Å3 to retain continuity of some structural features. |
