As you know, 16S rRNA is used to in phylogenetic classification owing to slow rates evolution of this gene, being in all prokaryotes etc. But which mechanism maintains this situation? Or is there any accepted notion regarding that ?
Because it is importent compose of Ribosome, so it's mutation will effect protein synthetize, more multiple mutations can lead to fatal.
Yes Mr. Cheng you are right. I agree with you. But I think you just a little bit misunderstood my question. I ask which mechanism leads to this protection of 16sRrna, vital structure of Ribosome and thereby of life ?
Yes we can say that. Might be there isn't any biological explanation, investigation on it. I just wonder it. I thought there are some things providing advantage and protection for 16srrna
