  • Crystal structure of the 30S ribosome and its use
    Patent number: 7606670
    Abstract: The invention provides an X-ray crystal structure of the 30S ribosome, obtained from Thermus thermophilus 30S subunit, having a tetragonal space group P41212 with unit cell dimensions of a=401.4±4.0 ?, b=401.4±4.0 ?, c=175.9±5.0 ?. An advantageous feature of the structure is that it diffracts beyond 3 ? resolution. The invention also provides a crystal of 30S having the three dimensional atomic coordinates of the 30S ribosome, the coordinates being provided in Tables 1A and 1B. The data may be used for the rational design and modelling of inhibitors for the 30S ribosome, which have potential use as antibiotics.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 17, 2001
    Date of Patent: October 20, 2009
    Assignees: University of Utah Research Foundation, Medical Research Council
    Inventors: Venkatraman Ramakrishnan, Brian Thomas Wimberly, Ditlev Egeskov Brodersen, Andrew Philip Carter, William Melvon Clemons, Jr.
  • Crystal structure of antibiotics bound to the 30S ribosome and its use
    Patent number: 7079956
    Abstract: The invention provides high resolution X-ray crystal structures of the 30S ribosome, obtained from Thermus thermophilus 30S subunit, having a tetragonal space group P41212 to which are bound an antibiotic selected from the group paromomycin, streptomycin, spectinomycin, tetracycline, pactamycin and hygromycin B. An advantageous feature of the structure is that it diffracts at about 3 ? resolution. The invention also provides a crystal of 30S having the three dimensional atomic coordinates of the 30S ribosome, the coordinates being provided in any one of tables 1 to 4. The data may be used for the rational design and modelling of inhibitors for the 30S ribosome, which have potential use as antibiotics.
