We used cryo-electron microscopy to determine the structures of three key states of the tmRNA-SmpB-ribosome complex during trans translation at resolutions of 3.7 to 4.4 angstroms. The results show how tmRNA and SmpB act specifically on stalled ribosomes and how the circularized complex moves through the ribosome, enabling translation to switch from the old defective message to the reading frame on tmRNA. How a circularized tmRNA moves through the ribosome.,Rae CD, Gordiyenko Y, Ramakrishnan V Science. 2019 Feb 15;363(6428):740-744. doi: 10.1126/science.aav9370.
