Popis: International audience; Proteolytic degradation of ribosomal proteins occurs during the preparation of subunits of the cytoplasmic ribosomes of the protozoa Tetrahymenu thernioplrila and the isolated subunits are inactive. Addition of 5 mM iodoacetamide to cell suspensions before extraction inhibits proteolytic activity and permits isolation of active subunits. The protein complements of these subunits have been characterized in two different two-dimensional elcctrophoretic systems, and their molecular weights have been determined.
