Recent X-ray and cryo-EM studies of 70S ribosome complexes containing different types of messenger RNAs (mRNA) and transfer RNA (tRNA) have been reviewed. Changes of the mRNA path on the ribosome at initiation and elongation states have been described. Authors suggested, that the specific region of ribosomal 30S subunit ("platform") is a ribosome binding site of regulatory domains of mRNA which locates on the non-translated 5'-end of the mRNA.
