Signal recognition particle (SRP) and SRP receptor: a new paradigm for multistate regulatory GTPases.
The GTP-binding proteins or GTPases comprise a superfamily of proteins that provide molecular switches in numerous cellular processes. The "GTPase switch" paradigm, in which a GTPase acts as a bimodal switch that is turned "on" and "off" by external regulatory factors, has been used to interpret the regulatory mechanism of many GTPases for more than two decades. Nevertheless, recent work has un...
متن کاملA distinct mechanism to achieve efficient signal recognition particle (SRP)-SRP receptor interaction by the chloroplast srp pathway.
Cotranslational protein targeting by the signal recognition particle (SRP) requires the SRP RNA, which accelerates the interaction between the SRP and SRP receptor 200-fold. This otherwise universally conserved SRP RNA is missing in the chloroplast SRP (cpSRP) pathway. Instead, the cpSRP and cpSRP receptor (cpFtsY) by themselves can interact 200-fold faster than their bacterial homologues. Here...
متن کاملThe signal recognition particle (SRP) RNA links conformational changes in the SRP to protein targeting.
The RNA component of the signal recognition particle (SRP) is universally required for cotranslational protein targeting. Biochemical studies have shown that SRP RNA participates in the central step of protein targeting by catalyzing the interaction of the SRP with the SRP receptor (SR). SRP RNA also accelerates GTP hydrolysis in the SRP.SR complex once formed. Using a reverse-genetic and bioch...
متن کاملTrigger factor binds to ribosome-signal-recognition particle (SRP) complexes and is excluded by binding of the SRP receptor.
Trigger factor (TF) and signal recognition particle (SRP) bind to the bacterial ribosome and are both crosslinked to protein L23 at the peptide exit, where they interact with emerging nascent peptide chains. It is unclear whether TF and SRP exclude one another from their ribosomal binding site(s). Here we show that SRP and TF can bind simultaneously to ribosomes or ribosome nascent-chain comple...
متن کاملEvidence for coupling of membrane targeting and function of the signal recognition particle (SRP) receptor FtsY.
Recent studies have indicated that FtsY, the signal recognition particle receptor of Escherichia coli, plays a central role in membrane protein biogenesis. For proper function, FtsY must be targeted to the membrane, but its membrane-targeting pathway is unknown. We investigated the relationship between targeting and function of FtsY in vivo, by separating its catalytic domain (NG) from its puta...
