Differences between the binding of RNA and DNA in S1 nuclease were analysed using X-ray crystallography. In order to properly interpret the obtained diffraction data, a correction for multiple lattice-translocation defects was applied.

This study describes the structure of the chloroplast ribosome-associated molecular chaperone trigger factor at 2.6 Å resolution. It is shown that this eukaryotic trigger factor has evolved specific structural features in plants that are distinct from those of the bacterial homolog, contributing to a better understanding of co-translational protein folding in plastids.
