Although that's still not high enough to discern the positions of individual atoms, the researchers were able to combine their new data with existing structural and biochemical information to gain key insights about the connections between the ribosome and so-called transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules, which bring in the amino acids for assembly.
A challenge that lies ahead for the scientific community is to discern the appropriate positioning of abiraterone in an increasingly crowded therapeutic landscape.
