The structure of the antibiotic resistance methyltransferase, NpmA, bound to the small ribosomal subunit has been featured in the Protein Data Bank’s Molecule of the Month series. This structure, reported in the Proceedings of the National Academies of Science by Dunkle et al. in 2014, revealed specific ribosomal RNA helices are recognized by NpmA in a sequence-independent…Continue Reading PDB Molecule of the Month features Dunkle 2014 structure
