title: A contrast variation study of Escherichia coli ribosomes reassembled from protonated and deuterated subunits.
abstract: Neutron low angle scattering studies on E. coli ribosomes reassembled from protonated and deuterated subunits indicate that the association of the two subunits occurs without major distortion of their shape or modification of the distribution of the protein and RNA components.
