Fig. 6: Model of MTG3-mediated maturation coupled to translation initiation of human mtSSU.

Intermediate states of the mtSSU are depicted as surface and factors and rRNA content is colored as in Figs. 2–4. Models for mature mtSSU IC (PDB: 7PO2¹⁹), mtLSU and mature IC (PDB: 6GAW⁵³) have been reported previously.
