Multiple elements required for translation of plastid atpB mRNA lacking the Shine-Dalgarno sequence.
The mechanism of translational initiation differs between prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Prokaryotic mRNAs generally contain within their 5'-untranslated region (5'-UTR) a Shine-Dalgarno (SD) sequence that serves as a ribosome-binding site. Chloroplasts possess prokaryotic-like translation machinery, and many chloroplast mRNAs have an SD-like sequence, but its position is variable. Tobacco chlorop...
متن کاملComparative genomic analysis of translation initiation mechanisms for genes lacking the Shine–Dalgarno sequence in prokaryotes
In prokaryotes, translation initiation is believed to occur through an interaction between the 3΄ tail of a 16S rRNA and a corresponding Shine-Dalgarno (SD) sequence in the 5΄ untranslated region (UTR) of an mRNA. However, some genes lack SD sequences (non-SD genes), and the fraction of non-SD genes in a genome varies depending on the prokaryotic species. To elucidate non-SD translation initiat...
متن کاملConserved small mRNA with an unique, extended Shine-Dalgarno sequence
Up to now, very small protein-coding genes have remained unrecognized in sequenced genomes. We identified an mRNA of 165 nucleotides (nt), which is conserved in Bradyrhizobiaceae and encodes a polypeptide with 14 amino acid residues (aa). The small mRNA harboring a unique Shine-Dalgarno sequence (SD) with a length of 17 nt was localized predominantly in the ribosome-containing P100 fraction of ...
متن کاملAn efficient Shine-Dalgarno sequence but not translation is necessary for lacZ mRNA stability in Escherichia coli.
The 5' ends of many bacterial transcripts are important in determining mRNA stability. A series of Shine-Dalgarno (SD) sequence changes showed that the complementarity of the SD sequence to the anti-SD sequence of 16S rRNA correlates with lacZ mRNA stability in Escherichia coli. Several initiation codon changes showed that an efficient initiation codon is not necessary to maintain lacZ mRNA sta...
متن کاملA nuclear gene in maize required for the translation of the chloroplast atpB/E mRNA.
To elucidate mechanisms that regulate chloroplast translation in land plants, we sought nuclear mutations in maize that disrupt the translation of subsets of chloroplast mRNAs. Evidence is presented for a nuclear gene whose function is required for the translation of the chloroplast atpB/E mRNA. A mutation in atp1 results in a failure to accumulate the chloroplast ATP synthase complex due to re...
