How the ribosome moves along the mRNA during protein synthesis.
The movement of a ribosome along the mRNA was assessed by the following experimental strategy. mRNAs were synthesized which contained a short coding sequence with at least four codons and a 32P label at one end and an oligo(C) sequence at the other end. When these mRNAs were fixed on the ribosome with tRNAs specific for the defined codons, the oligo(C) stretches were partially outside of the ri...
متن کاملVisualizing tmRNA entry into a stalled ribosome.
Bacterial ribosomes stalled on defective messenger RNAs (mRNAs) are rescued by tmRNA, an approximately 300-nucleotide-long molecule that functions as both transfer RNA (tRNA) and mRNA. Translation then switches from the defective message to a short open reading frame on tmRNA that tags the defective nascent peptide chain for degradation. However, the mechanism by which tmRNA can enter and move ...
متن کاملThe tmRNA system for translational surveillance and ribosome rescue.
The tmRNA system performs translational surveillance and ribosome rescue in all eubacteria and some eukaryotic organelles. This system intervenes when ribosomes read to the 3' end of an mRNA or pause at internal codons with subsequent mRNA cleavage. A complex of alanyl-tmRNA (which functions as a tRNA and mRNA), SmpB protein, and EF-TucGTP binds stalled ribosomes, the nascent polypeptide is tra...
متن کاملtmRNA-SmpB: a journey to the centre of the bacterial ribosome.
Ribosomes mediate protein synthesis by decoding the information carried by messenger RNAs (mRNAs) and catalysing peptide bond formation between amino acids. When bacterial ribosomes stall on incomplete messages, the trans-translation quality control mechanism is activated by the transfer-messenger RNA bound to small protein B (tmRNA-SmpB ribonucleoprotein complex). Trans-translation liberates t...
متن کاملDecoding in the absence of a codon by tmRNA and SmpB in the ribosome.
In bacteria, ribosomes stalled at the end of truncated messages are rescued by transfer-messenger RNA (tmRNA), a bifunctional molecule that acts as both a transfer RNA (tRNA) and a messenger RNA (mRNA), and SmpB, a small protein that works in concert with tmRNA. Here, we present the crystal structure of a tmRNA fragment, SmpB and elongation factor Tu bound to the ribosome at 3.2 angstroms resol...
