This award funds research to understand how bacterial cells detect and resolve problems during protein synthesis by studying ribosome quality control mechanisms triggered by ribosome collisions.
Description
The project aims to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of ribosome quality control pathways in bacteria, focusing on the roles of specific proteins and modifications in response to ribosome stalling and collision events.
