Ribosome binding

LI 2 treatment Ribosome binding (pmol/pmol ribosome) Polyphenylalanine synthesis (pmol) Acetylation (pmol)... [Pg.858]

Very recently, a third hypothesis has been pubHshed. Morita and co-workers [47] have suggested that the rpoH mRNA secondary structure itself acts as a thermosensor. In the absence of heat stress, the rpoH mRNA is folded into a secondary structure that occludes the ribosome binding site and the initiation codon. Upon heat shock, this structure is unfolded allowing ribosome binding and enhanced synthesis. [Pg.22]

In contrast to most mRNAs, which become untranslatable after a temperature downshock, cold shock mRNAs possess a mechanism to form the translation initiation complex at low temperature without cold shock ribosomes. A close inspection of the mRNAs of class I cold shock proteins reveal that they are equipped with an extra ribosome-binding site called the downstream box located within the coding region of their transcript [130]. It would be interesting to know whether introduction of this downstream box into a cellular mRNA would convert it into a transcript which can be transcribed immediately after a cold shock. In the case of the cspA mRNA it has been shown that in the absence of the downstream box the initiation complex cannot be formed at low temperature during the accHmation phase [131]. [Pg.27]

Figure 7.4 (a) IREs in eukaryotic mRNAs the secondary structures of ferritin and transferrin receptor IREs. (b) The IRE localization in mRNAs the translation/ribosome binding element in the 5 -UTR of ferritin mRNA is above, that of the stability/ turnover element in the 3 -UTR of transferrin receptor mRNA is below.

Figure 7.5 Model of ferritin (and erythroid a-aminolaevulinate synthase) translation/ribosome binding regulation by IRP. In (a), with IRP not bound to the IRE (1) binding of the 43S preinitiation complex (consisting of the small ribosomal 40S subunit, GTP and Met-tRNAMet) to the mRNA is assisted by initiation factors associated with this complex, as well as additional eukaryotic initiation factors (elFs) that interact with the mRNA to facilitate 43S association. Subsequently (2), the 43S preinitiation complex moves along the 5 -UTR towards the AUG initiator codon, (3) GTP is hydrolysed, initiation factors are released and assembly of the 80S ribosome occurs. Protein synthesis from the open reading frame (ORF) can now proceed. In (b) With IRP bound to the IRE, access of the 43S preinitiation complex to the mRNA is sterically blocked.

Subcloning of the gene cluster into E. coli [43,136], Pseudomonas [146] and other organisms has been reported. The genes were subcloned independently and expressed in E. coli MZ1 under control of the inducible lambda pL promoter with a lambda ell ribosomal binding site. As a result, the dszC gene has been linked to conversion of DBT to DBT-sulfone [145], dszA to conversion of DBT sulfone to hydroxyphenyl benzene... [Pg.91]

Kinetics of fMet-tRNA binding to 30S ribosomal subunit Inhibition of ribosomal binding of fMet-tRNA by an antibiotic may reduce the level of initiation complex formed at equilibrium. However, if the effect of the inhibitor consists mainly of slowing down the binding reaction, its effect may appear less dramatic after a relatively long incubation time. For this... [Pg.286]

In the following section, we describe protocols for tests aimed at screening for compounds capable of interfering with some of the main activities of this factor, such as (a) recognition and binding of initiator tRNA (b) codon-dependent ribosomal binding of fMet-tRNA leading to the formation of a 30S or 70S initiation complex (c) ribosome-dependent hydrolysis of GTP and (d) accommodation of fMet-tRNA in the ribosomal P-site and formation of the first peptide bond (initiation dipeptide formation). [Pg.290]

Sequence analysis of the 5 -ends of viral and nuclear mRNA molecules reveals that these are frequently capped , with an unusual structure in which 7-methylguanosine is joined by a (5 - 5 ) triphosphate link to a 2 -0-methyl nucleoside moiety which is the first residue in the (3 ->5 )-linked polynucleotide chain.166-168 The presence of this cap structure is required for ribosomal binding and translation to take place,167- 168 and 7-methylguanosine-5 -phosphate inhibits translation by preventing formation of the ribosome-mRNA complex.169... [Pg.174]

A 7-methylguanosine cap is added to the 5 end while the RNA molecule is still being synthesized. The cap structure serves as a ribosome-binding site and also helps to protect the mRNA chain from degradation. [Pg.34]

Answer C. Incorporation of a Shine-Dalgarno sequence into the expression vector will promote ribosome binding to the translation start site on the mRNA produced by transcription of the cDNA insert. [Pg.91]
