The kinetics of synthesis of ribosomal, nonribosomal, and total protein, and of ribosomal ribonucleic acid (RNA), were measured in Escherichia coli during a shift-up involving a doubling of specific growth rate. The increase in ribosomal protein synthesis was not accompanied by a corresponding decrease in non-ribosomal protein synthesis. Thus, the average rate of protein synthesis per ribosome ...

Ribosome biogenesis, which takes place mainly in the nucleolus, involves coordinated expression of pre-ribosomal RNAs (pre-rRNAs) and ribosomal proteins, pre-rRNA processing, subunit assembly with aid numerous factors. Our previous study showed that Arabidopsis thaliana protein arginine methyltransferase AtPRMT3 regulates processing; however, underlying molecular mechanism remains unknown. Here...

Yeast mRNA enriched for ribosomal protein mRNA was obtained by isolating poly(A)+ small mRNA from small polysomes. A comparison of cell-free translation of this small mRNA and total mRNA, and electrophoresis of the products on two-dimensional gels which resolve most yeast ribosomal proteins, demonstrated that a 5-10 fold enrichment for ribosomal protein mRNA was obtained. One hundred different ...

Three ribosomal protein genes induced by low-temperature treatment were isolated from soybean. GmRPS13 (742 bp) encodes a 17.1 kDa protein which has 95% identity with the 40S ribosomal protein S13 of Panax ginseng (AB043974). GmRPS6 (925 bp) encodes a 28.1 kDa protein which has 94% identity with the 40S ribosomal protein S6 of Asparagus officinalis (AJ277533). GmRPL37 (494 bp) encodes a 10.7 kD...

An original approach to the development of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) with a new mechanism action based on directed coaggregation peptide target protein is proposed. The unique multifunctional bacterial ribosomal S1 was chosen as protein. amyloidogenic and antibacterial effects various synthesized basis sequences were studied. results obtained can serve for creation AMPs against strains path...
