Abstract :
We report the identification of a novel compound that binds to the Escherichia coli 16S ribosomal A-site. Binding by the compound was observed using nuclear magnetic resonance and mass spectrometry techniques. We show that the compound binds in the same position in the A-site RNA as occupied by the aminoglycoside class of antibiotics.
