Modeling the effect of rRNA-mRNA interactions and mRNA folding on mRNA translation in chloroplasts

The process of translation initiation in prokaryotes is mediated by the hybridization of the 16S rRNA of the small ribosomal subunit with the mRNA in a short region called the ribosomal binding site. However, translation initiation in chloroplasts, which have evolved from an ancestral bacterium, is...
