Rna-protein Cross-linking in Escherichia Coli 30s Ribosomal Subunits; Determination of Sites on 16s Una That Are Cross-linked to Proteins S3, S4, S5, S7, S8, S9, Sll, Si3, S19 and S21 by Treatment with Methyl P-aridophenyl Acetfanidate

چکیده
RNA-protein cross-links were introduced into E. coli 30S ribosomal subunits by treatment with methyl p-azidopEenyl acetimidate. After partial nuclease digestion of the RNA moiety, a number of cross-linked RNA-protein complexes were isolated by a new three-step procedure. Protein and RNA analysis of the individual complexes gave the following results: Proteins S3, S4, S5 and S8 are cross-linked to the 5'-terminal tetranucleotide of 16S RNA. S5 is also cross-linked to the 16S RNA within an oligonucleotide encompassing positions 559-561. Proteins Sll, S9, S19 and S7 are cross-linked to 16S RNA within oligonucleotides encompassing positions 702-705, 1130-1131, 1223-1231 and 1238-1240, respectively. Protein S13 is cross-linked to an oligonucleotide encompassing positions 1337-1338, and is also involved in an anomalous cross-link within positions 189-191. Protein S21 is cross-linked to the 3'-terminal dodecanucleotide of the 16S RNA.

RNA-protein cross-links were introduced into E. coli 30S ribosomal subunits by reaction with 2-iminothiolane followed by a mild ultraviolet irradiation treatment. After removal of non-reacted protein and partial nuclease digestion of the cross-linked 16S RNA-protein moiety, a number of individual cross-linked complexes could be isolated and the sites of attachment of the proteins to the RNA det...

Treatment of E. coli ribosomal subunits with 2-iminothiolane coupled with mild ultraviolet irradiation leads to the formation of a large number of RNA-protein cross-links. In the case of the 30S subunit, a number of sites on 16S RNA that are cross-linked to proteins S7 and S8 by this procedure have already been identified (see ref. 6). Here, by using new or modified techniques for the partial d...

Functionally active 70S ribosomes containing 4-thiouridine (s4U) in place of uridine were prepared by a formerly described in vivo substitution method. Proteins were crosslinked to RNA by 366 nm photoactivation of s4U. We observe the systematic and characteristic formation of 30S dimers; they were eliminated for analysis of RNA-protein crosslinks. M13 probes containing rDNA inserts complementar...

14C-labelled proteins from E. coli 30S ribosomal subunits were isolated by HPLC, and selected groups of these proteins were reconstituted with 32P-labelled 16S RNA. The isolated reconstituted particles were partially digested with ribonuclease A, and the RNA fragments protected by the proteins were separated by gel electrophoresis and subjected to sequence analysis. Protein S7 alone gave no pro...

In vitro synthesis of a number of E. coli 30S ribosomal proteins has been demonstrated in a cell-free system consisting of ribosomes, initiation factors, RNA polymerase, a fraction containing soluble enzymes and factors, and E. coli DNA. DNA-dependent synthesis of the following 30S proteins has been demonstrated: S4, S5, S7, S8, S9, S10, S13, S14, S16, S19, and S20.
