It illustrates the molecular basis of SRP19 binding to the S domain and the overall architecture of the RNA, showing the stabilizing interactions established between RNA helices 6 and 8, which stack against each other to form the S domain.

By fitting the known X-ray structures of SRP and SRP RNA subdomains in the cryo-EM density maps, the authors propose a model of both the interaction between SRP, the ribosome and a nascent chain, and SRP-mediated translation elongation arrest.

46. ••]) is the first to report the high-resolution structure of the universally conserved heterodimeric core of a targeting complex comprising the twinned GTPase domains of an SRP (Ffh) and its cognate SR (FtsY) from Thermus aquaticus. This structure reveals the crucial role of GTP in SRP-SR association and reciprocal activation, thus explaining the unidirectionality of the targeting reaction.
