Abstract: | Among the three Escherichia coli 50 S subunit proteins L5, L18 and L25, which have an affinity for 5 S RNA, only protein L18 exerts a strong effect on the fluorescence of 5 S RNA-ethidium bromide complexes, without changing the quantum yield of the fluorescence. Proteins L5 and L25, although they have little effect on the fluorescence, have a strong stabilizing influence on the 5 S RNA-L18 complex. The results are discussed in terms of the secondary and tertiary structures of 5 S RNA in relation to ribosomal protein binding. |
