Thiostrepton inhibits stable 70S ribosome binding and ribosome-dependent GTPase activation of elongation factor G and elongation factor 4
Thiostrepton, a macrocyclic thiopeptide antibiotic, inhibits prokaryotic translation by interfering with the function of elongation factor G (EF-G). Here, we have used 70S ribosome binding and GTP hydrolysis assays to study the effects of thiostrepton on EF-G and a newly described translation factor, elongation factor 4 (EF4). In the presence of thiostrepton, ribosome-dependent GTP hydrolysis i...
متن کاملStm1p alters the ribosome association of eukaryotic elongation factor 3 and affects translation elongation
Stm1p is a Saccharomyces cerevisiae protein that is primarily associated with cytosolic 80S ribosomes and polysomes. Several lines of evidence suggest that Stm1p plays a role in translation under nutrient stress conditions, although its mechanism of action is not yet known. In this study, we show that yeast lacking Stm1p (stm1Delta) are hypersensitive to the translation inhibitor anisomycin, wh...
متن کاملRibosome-bound eukaryotic elongation factor 2 protects 5 S rRNA from modification.
The interaction between eukaryotic elongation factor eEF-2 and reconstituted 80 S ribosomes was investigated by analyzing the accessibility of 5 S ribosomal RNA for chemical and enzymatic modification. Ribosomes reconstituted from derived subunits were modified, and the positions of the modified sites were identified by primer extension using a 5 S rRNA-specific probe. All reactive sites were l...
متن کاملSTUDIES ON THE TISSUE SPECIFICITY OF COLONY STIMULATING FACTOR
In this study granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (CSF) was prepared from rabbit and guinea pig lung tissues. The biological activity of these CSFs was measured on semisolid agar culture and compared with those of mouse and rat. Weight of animals, incubation time and cross-reactivity of CSFs with different bone marrow sources were also investigated. The results showed that both...
متن کاملLarge-Scale Movement of Elongation Factor G and Extensive Conformational Change of the Ribosome during Translocation
Elongation factor (EF) G promotes tRNA translocation on the ribosome. We present three-dimensional reconstructions, obtained by cryo-electron microscopy, of EF-G-ribosome complexes before and after translocation. In the pretranslocation state, domain 1 of EF-G interacts with the L7/12 stalk on the 50S subunit, while domain 4 contacts the shoulder of the 30S subunit in the region where protein S...
