Этакая нанофабрика, жужжащая в каждой клетке, считывающая чертежи с мРНК и штампующая белки с космической точностью. Красивая картинка. Но с инженерной точки зрения это чудовищно неэффективная штука.Правда такова: рибосома — это пережиток, молекулярный реликт эпохи РНК-мира, который природа так и не смогла толком модернизировать за миллиарды лет.
