Streptomycin crystal structure

Ramakrishnan and co-workers 3-A crystal structures of two different aminoglycosides (paromomycin and streptomycin) bound to the 30S subunit laid to rest much of the debate concerning the binding mode of aminoglycoside antibiotics. Paromomycin was found bound to the major groove of helix 44 (H44), confirming mutagenesis studies that had been carried out previously. ...
