The Anisotropic Network Model (ANM) is used to study motions of the 30S small ribosomal subunit. The effect of the absence of certain subunits on the motions of the remaining partial structures was investigated by removing one protein, pairs of proteins and selected sets of proteins at a time. Our results show that the removal of some proteins doesn't change the large-scale dynamics of the partial structures, but the removal of certain subunits does cause significant changes in motion of the rem ...[more]
