Early life stress inhibits expression of ribosomal RNA in the developing hippocampus. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Children that are exposed to abuse or neglect show abnormal hippocampal function. However, the developmental mechanisms by which early life stress (ELS) impairs normal hippocampal development have not been elucidated. Here we propose that exposure to ELS

Potential of Mitochondrial Ribosomal Genes as Cancer Biomarkers Demonstrated by Bioinformatics Results

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2022
Next-generation sequencing and bioinformatics analyses have clearly revealed the roles of mitochondrial ribosomal genes in cancer development. Mitochondrial ribosomes are composed of three RNA components encoded by mitochondrial DNA and 82 specific ...

Similarity between the association factor of ribosomal subunits and the protein Stm1p from Saccharomyces cerevisiae

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2004
A ribosome association factor (AF) was isolated from the yeast Sacchharomyces cerevisiae. Partial amino acid sequence of AF was determined from its fragment of 25 kDa isolated by treating AF with 2-(2-nitrophenylsulfenyl)-3-methyl-3'-Bromoindolenine ...

Roles of ribosomal proteins in hematologic disorders and cancers: a review

open access: yesEmergency and Critical Care Medicine, 2023
. Ribosomes are important organelles for synthesizing proteins in cells. They are composed of ribosomal RNA and more than 80 ribosomal proteins. It is well known that an essential function of ribosomal proteins is to participate in protein translation ...

Comparative analyses of classical phenotypic method and ribosomal RNA gene sequencing for identification of medically relevant Candida species

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2013
As the distribution of Candida species and their susceptibility to antifungal agents have changed, a new means of accurately and rapidly identifying these species is necessary for the successful early resolution of infection and the subsequent reduction ...

Mild cognitive impairment is associated with low copy number of ribosomal genes in the genomes of elderly people

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2022
Introduction: Mild cognitive impairments (MCI) accompanying aging are associated with oxidative stress. The ability of cells to respond to stress is determined by the protein synthesis level, which depends on the ribosomes number.

Spatial organization of bacterial transcription and translation [PDF]

open access: yesProc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 113(33), 9286 (2016), 2015
In bacteria such as $\textit{Escherichia coli}$, DNA is compacted into a nucleoid near the cell center, while ribosomes$-$molecular complexes that translate messenger RNAs (mRNAs) into proteins$-$are mainly localized at the poles. We study the impact of this spatial organization using a minimal reaction-diffusion model for the cellular transcriptional ...

Ribosomal DNA-connecting ribosome biogenesis and chromosome biology [PDF]

open access: yesChromosome Research, 2019
Ribosomal DNA, the topic of this special issue, has long fascinated biologists. The RNA products of the ribosomal DNA are the ribosomal RNAs that are part of the ribosome. In this special issue, we focus on the sequence, molecular organization, repair, stability, copy number, and peculiar genetics of this region of the genome.

Optimal localization patterns in bacterial protein synthesis [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E 98(3), 032417 (2018), 2019
In $\textit{Escherichia coli}$ bacterium, the molecular compounds involved in protein synthesis, messenger RNAs (mRNAs) and ribosomes, show marked intracellular localization patterns. Yet a quantitative understanding of the physical principles which would allow one to control protein synthesis by designing, bioengineering, and optimizing these ...

Copy Number of Human Ribosomal Genes With Aging: Unchanged Mean, but Narrowed Range and Decreased Variance in Elderly Group

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2018
Introduction: The multi-copied genes coding for the human 18, 5.8, and 28S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) are located in five pairs of acrocentric chromosomes forming so-called rDNA.
