Structure and function of the acidic ribosomal stalk proteins.
The acidic L7/L12 (prokaryotes) and P1/P2 (eukaryotes) proteins are the only ribosomal components that occur in more than one, specifically four, copies in the translational machinery. These ribosomal proteins are the only ones that do not directly interact with ribosomal RNA but bind to the particles via a protein, L10 and P0, respectively. They constitute a morphologically distinct feature on...
متن کاملStructure function relationships in the ribosomal stalk proteins of archaebacteria.
The ribosomal L12 protein gene of Sulfolobus solfataricus (SsoL12) has been subcloned and overexpressed in Escherichia coli. Five protein L12 mutants were designed: two NH2-terminal and two COOH-terminal truncated mutants and one mutant lacking the highly charged part of the COOH-terminal region. The mutant protein genes were overexpressed in E. coli and the products purified. The amino acid co...
متن کاملStructural insights into the interaction of the ribosomal P stalk protein P2 with a type II ribosome-inactivating protein ricin
Ricin is a type II ribosome-inactivating protein (RIP) that depurinates A4324 at the sarcin-ricin loop of 28 S ribosomal RNA (rRNA), thus inactivating the ribosome by preventing elongation factors from binding to the GTPase activation centre. Recent studies have disclosed that the conserved C-terminal domain (CTD) of eukaryotic ribosomal P stalk proteins is involved in the process that RIPs tar...
متن کاملRibosomal protein L7Ae is a subunit of archaeal RNase P.
To the mounting evidence of nonribosomal functions for ribosomal proteins, we now add L7Ae as a subunit of archaeal RNase P, a ribonucleoprotein (RNP) that catalyzes 5'-maturation of precursor tRNAs (pre-tRNAs). We first demonstrate that L7Ae coelutes with partially purified Methanococcus maripaludis (Mma) RNase P activity. After establishing in vitro reconstitution of the single RNA with four ...
متن کاملRibosomal P0 protein domain involved in selectivity of antifungal sordarin derivatives.
The ribosomal stalk protein P0 is involved in the susceptibility to the antifungal sordarin derivatives, as reported for a number of Saccharomyces cerevisiae resistant mutants. Mammals and some lower eukaryotes are naturally resistant to these compounds. It is shown here that expression in S. cerevisiae of the ribosomal protein P0 from Homo sapiens and from other sordarin-resistant organisms re...
