Various effects of paromomycin on tmRNA-directed trans-translation.
trans-Translation is an unusual translation in which tmRNA plays a dual function as a tRNA and an mRNA to relieve the stalled translation on the ribosome. In this study, we examined the effects of an aminoglycoside antibiotic, paromomycin, on several tmRNA-related events in vitro. The results of a chemical footprinting study indicated that paromomycin molecules bind tmRNA at G332/G333 in the tR...
متن کاملSmpB as the handyman of tmRNA during trans-translation.
In the recent years, a wealth of genetic, biochemical and structural data focusing on various steps of bacterial trans-translation was reported. The early events, from stalled ribosome recognition, pre-accommodation to translocation have been recently investigated in great details. In comparison, the later events including 'elongation-termination' onto tmRNA reading frame and ribosome recycling...
متن کاملtRNA/mRNA Mimicry by tmRNA and SmpB in Trans-Translation
Since accurate translation from mRNA to protein is critical to survival, cells have developed translational quality control systems. Bacterial ribosomes stalled on truncated mRNA are rescued by a system involving tmRNA and SmpB referred to as trans-translation. Here, we review current understanding of the mechanism of trans-translation. Based on results obtained by using directed hydroxyl radic...
متن کاملtmRNA-mediated trans-translation as the major ribosome rescue system in a bacterial cell
Transfer messenger RNA (tmRNA; also known as 10Sa RNA or SsrA RNA) is a small RNA molecule that is conserved among bacteria. It has structural and functional similarities to tRNA: it has an upper half of the tRNA-like structure, its 5' end is processed by RNase P, it has typical tRNA-specific base modifications, it is aminoacylated with alanine, it binds to EF-Tu after aminoacylation and it ent...
متن کاملTrans-translation exposed: understanding the structures and functions of tmRNA-SmpB
Ribosome stalling is a serious issue for cell survival. In bacteria, the primary rescue system is trans-translation, performed by tmRNA and its protein partner small protein B (SmpB). Since its discovery almost 20 years ago, biochemical, genetic, and structural studies have paved the way to a better understanding of how this sophisticated process takes place at the cellular and molecular levels...
