The cryo-EM structure of hibernating 100S ribosome dimer from pathogenic Staphylococcus aureus

Under conditions of nutrient limitation, bacterial ribosomes undergo dimerization, forming a 100S complex that is translationally inactive. Here the authors present the structural basis for formation of the 100S complexes in Gram-positive bacteria, shedding light on the mechanism of translation supp...
