The Mitoribosome Methods and Protocols

This volume provides classic and new methods to study the structure, assembly pathway, and protein synthesis ability of mitoribosomes across species. Following an introduction of fundamental concepts on the topic, method chapters present detailed protocols based on cryo-electron tomography, cryo-EM...
