Structural snapshots of human pre-60S ribosomal particles before and after nuclear export

Abstract

Ribosome biogenesis in eukaryotes is a complex process that involves more than 200 protein factors. Here the authors present a structural analysis of a collection of human pre-60S structures sampled through a nuclear export adaptor NMD3, representing structural snapshots of pre-60S particles immediately before and after passing through nuclear pore complex.
