This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: Answers_ribosomes, ribosomes composition Composed of two subunits with densities of 50S and 30S., ribosomes function Serve as a workbench for protein synthesis - they receive and translate genetic instructions for the formation of specific proteins., ribosomes significance to control of bacterial growth Many antibiotics bind to and alter bacterial ribosomes, interfering with translation and thereby causing faulty protein synthesis., Composed of two subunits with densities of 50S and 30S. S (Svedberg unit) A unit of density; the greater the S-value, the more dense the particle, Composed of two subunits with densities of 50S and 30S. 50S subunit Contains a 5S and a 23S rRNA and 31 proteins., Many antibiotics bind to and alter bacterial ribosomes, interfering with translation and thereby causing faulty protein synthesis. examples macrolides and tetracyclines, Composed of two subunits with densities of 50S and 30S. 30S subunit Contains a 16S rRNA and 21 proteins., ribosomes composition Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and protein.
