message: I suggest to move the whole section on structure to a new page. There is plenty of more information to be incorporated, so this will eventually become unwieldy. Peteruetz (talk) 14:52, 9 October 2013 (UTC)

thread_title: Ribosome: structure and function, molecular device/machine

message: This non sequitur at the end of the structure section has been deleted for lack of context or explanation and weasel wording.
"It should be noted that the production of the component parts of the ribosome from a messenger RNA molecule is rather strongly isomorphic with the self-replication model of von Neumann."

message: Shouldn't "intercellular" in "Ribosomes are often embedded in the intercellular membranes that make up the rough endoplasmic reticulum" be replaced by "intracellular"?

message: It's a theory. It's structure may not have all the same components.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:2149:827F:6E00:549E:A65E:49A0:F52F (talk) 21:23, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: I do not understand. They cannot be self-cloning, because they produce proteins, not ribozymes that they actually are (the most important active center that is). So it is just a wrong theory and is against RNA world. Valery Zapolodov (talk) 00:24, 26 July 2021 (UTC)
thread_title: Self-cloning ribosome as the pro-LUCA origin of life

message: It's outdated to talk about prokaryotes, as bacteria and archaea are as different from each other as bacteria and eukaryotes or archaea and eukaryotes.  There should be a separate section on archaeal ribosomes.  Also, I found it strange to talk about properties of prokaryotic (or even just bacterial) ribosomes based only on numbers of one species (E. coli).  Other bacteria will certainly have rRNAs of different sizes, and I would expect also different numbers of proteins.  In the meantime, I've edited the sentences so they more directly relate to E. coli, as an example.

thread_title: My recent edit and the term "prokaryote"

message: I believe that the caption in Fig. 6 would be improved greatly by adding to it a part of the caption to the identical figure in the “Elongation” section of the “Eukaryotic translation” page, which reads (slightly altered): “The ribosome is green and yellow, the tRNAs are dark blue, and some other proteins involved are light blue.”
I do not know how to carry this out; I'm just leaving this here in case someone wants to carry on... HHHEB3 (talk) 13:19, 5 April 2024 (UTC)
