Final touches and quality control on the assembly of the eukaryotic ribosome.

چکیده
One of the most fundamental processes of life is protein synthesis by the ribosome. Although much is known about the function and structure of this macromolecular complex, our understanding on its assembly is still vague. In this issue of The EMBO Journal, Malyutin et al (2017) provide a detailed picture of one of the latest assembly stages of the yeast 60S ribosomal subunit. The cryo-EM map of the 60SNmd3-Lsg1-Tif6 complex sheds new light on the function of Nmd3, Lsg1 and Tif6— and their release mechanisms—right before the 60S subunit joins the pool of actively translating ribosomes.

A chance-constrained multi-objective model for final assembly scheduling in ATO systems with uncertain sub-assembly availability
A chance-constraint multi-objective model under uncertainty in the availability of subassemblies is proposed for scheduling in ATO systems. The on-time delivery of customer orders as well as reducing the company's cost is crucial; therefore, a three-objective model is proposed including the minimization of1) overtime, idletime, change-over, and setup costs, 2) total dispersion of items’ deliver...
متن کاملCoordinated Ribosomal L4 Protein Assembly into the Pre-Ribosome Is Regulated by Its Eukaryote-Specific Extension.
Eukaryotic ribosome biogenesis requires nuclear import and hierarchical incorporation of ∼80 ribosomal proteins (RPs) into the ribosomal RNA core. In contrast to prokaryotes, many eukaryotic RPs possess long extensions that interdigitate in the mature ribosome. RpL4 is a prime example, with an ∼80-residue-long surface extension of unknown function. Here, we identify assembly chaperone Acl4 that...
متن کاملRibosomal Proteins Orchestrate the Biogenesis of Eukaryotic Large Ribosomal Subunits in a Sequential Fashion
Ribosome biogenesis in eukaryotes involves the transcription, folding, and processing of ribosomal RNA (rRNA), as well as the concomitant assembly of ribosomal proteins. Several hundred trans-acting assembly factors also play a role in the complex process of ribosome biogenesis. Investigations of the construction of ribosomes have focused primarily on the roles of these assembly factors. Little...
متن کاملDriving ribosome assembly.
Ribosome biogenesis is a fundamental process that provides cells with the molecular factories for cellular protein production. Accordingly, its misregulation lies at the heart of several hereditary diseases (e.g., Diamond-Blackfan anemia). The process of ribosome assembly comprises the processing and folding of the pre-rRNA and its concomitant assembly with the ribosomal proteins. Eukaryotic ri...
متن کاملEncyclopedia of Biological Chemistry -contributors' Instructions Proof Corrections Should Be Returned in One Communication to Non-print Items Ribosome Assembly
Ribosomes are macromolecular machines that synthesize all cellular proteins. Ribosome biogenesis requires huge expenditure of cellular energy, and its dysregulation can result in a number of diseases including cancer. In vitro reconstitution experiments of bacterial ribosomal subunits have revealed principles underlying the assembly of ribosomes. These principles are also thought to guide the m...
