title: Electrons and X-rays gang up on the ribosome.
abstract: In all cells, protein synthesis is coordinated by the ribosome, and a number of pivotal structural studies on this complex have been completed during 1999. The combined results of the X-ray crystallography and electron microscopy studies have shed new light on the mechanism of this molecular machine.
