On the interaction of ribosomal protein L5 with 5S rRNA.
Ribosomal protein L5, a 5S rRNA binding protein in the large subunit, is composed of a five-stranded antiparallel beta-sheet and four alpha-helices, and folds in a way that is topologically similar to the ribonucleprotein (RNP) domain [Nakashima et al., RNA 7, 692-701, 20011. The crystal structure of ribosomal protein L5 (BstL5) from Bacillus stearothermophilus suggests that a concave surface f...
متن کاملPhylogeny of urate oxidase producing bacteria: on the basis of gene sequences of 16S rRNA and uricase protein
Uricase or Urate oxidase (urate:oxygen oxidoreductase, EC 1.7.3.3), a peroxisomal enzyme which is found in many bacteria, catalyzes the oxidative opening of the purine ring of urate to yield allantoin, carbon dioxide, and hydrogen peroxide. In this study, the phylogeny of urate oxidase (uricase) producing bacteria was studied based on gene sequences of 16S rRNA and uricase protein. Repres...
متن کاملA minimized rRNA-binding site for ribosomal protein S4 and its implications for 30S assembly
Primary ribosomal protein S4 is essential for 30S ribosome biogenesis in eubacteria, because it nucleates subunit assembly and helps coordinate assembly with the synthesis of its rRNA and protein components. S4 binds a five-helix junction (5WJ) that bridges the 5' and 3' ends of the 16S 5' domain. To delineate which nucleotides contribute to S4 recognition, sequential deletions of the 16S 5' do...
متن کاملPhosphorylation of ribosomal protein L18 is required for its folding and binding to 5S rRNA.
Ribosomal protein L18 from Bacillus stearothermophilus (bL18) includes a previously unreported phosphoserine residue. The folded conformation of the protein is stabilized by the dianionic form of the phosphate group of that residue. In the absence of Mg2+, the pK(a) of the phosphate group is so high that the protein is not fully folded at pH 7. In the presence of Mg2+, its pK(a) drops significa...
متن کاملThe KRR1 gene encodes a protein required for 18S rRNA synthesis and 40S ribosomal subunit assembly in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
The newly discovered Saccharomyces cerevisiae gene KRR1 (YCL059c) encodes a protein essential for cell viability. Krr1p contains a motif of clustered basic amino acids highly conserved in the evolutionarly distant species from yeast to human. We demonstrate that Krr1p is localized in the nucleolus. The KRR1 gene is highly expressed in dividing cells and its expression ceases almost completely w...
