Bacterial ribosome
Bacterial ribosome. Computer model showing the secondary structure of a 30S (small) ribosomal sub-unit from the bacteria Thermus thermophilus. Ribosomes are composed of protein and RNA (ribonucleic acid). They are the site of translation, the process of protein synthesis. In bacteria they are also a target for antibiotic drugs

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a computer-generated model of a bacterial ribosome, specifically the secondary structure of a 30S ribosomal sub-unit from the bacteria Thermus thermophilus. Composed of both protein and RNA (ribonucleic acid), ribosomes play a crucial role in translation, which is the process of protein synthesis. Notably, these intricate structures are not only essential for biological functions but also serve as targets for antibiotic drugs. The image beautifully captures the complexity and elegance of this molecular machinery through its detailed representation. The computer artwork vividly depicts sheets of proteins intertwined with RNA molecules, forming alpha helices that contribute to the ribosome's secondary structure. Each element harmoniously interacts to facilitate protein synthesis within bacterial cells. With its scientific significance and aesthetic appeal, this illustration serves as an excellent visual aid for biology enthusiasts and researchers alike. It highlights key aspects such as genetic compounds, proteins, molecules, and even specific details about Thermus thermophilus—a bacterium known for thriving in high-temperature environments. Presented by Science Photo Library—an esteemed source for scientifically accurate visuals—this print offers an opportunity to delve into the fascinating world of biochemistry and molecular biology while appreciating the beauty found within microscopic realms.
