The PDB and the ribosome [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2021 This essay, which was written to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Protein Data Bank, opens with some comments about the intentions of the scientists who pressed for its establishment and the nature of services it provides. It includes a brief account of the events that resulted in the determination of the crystal structure of the large ribosomal

Non‐ribosomal insights into ribosomal P2 protein in Plasmodium falciparum‐infected erythrocytes
MicrobiologyOpen, 2021 The enormous complexity of the eukaryotic ribosome has been a real challenge in unlocking the mechanistic aspects of its amazing molecular function during mRNA translation and many non‐canonical activities of ribosomal proteins in eukaryotic cells. While

Ribosomal proteins: functions beyond the ribosome [PDF]
Journal of Molecular Cell Biology, 2015 Although ribosomal proteins are known for playing an essential role in ribosome assembly and protein translation, their ribosome-independent functions have also been greatly appreciated. Over the past decade, more than a dozen of ribosomal proteins have been found to activate the tumor suppressor p53 pathway in response to ribosomal stress. In addition,

Isolation of Ribosomal Particles from the Unicellular Cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 [PDF]
, 2017 Isolation of ribosomal particles is an essential step in the study of ribosomal components as well as in the analysis of trans-acting factors that interact with the ribosome to regulate protein synthesis and modulate the expression profile of the cell ...

Mitochondrial ribosome assembly in Neurospora. Structural analysis of mature and partially assembled ribosomal subunits by equilibrium centrifugation in CsCl gradients [PDF]
, 1982 In Neurospora, one protein associated with the mitochondrial small ribosomal subunit (S-5, Mr 52,000) is synthesized intramitochondrially and is assumed to be encoded by mtDNA.

Identifying ribosome heterogeneity using ribosome profiling
Nucleic Acids Research, 2022 Abstract Recent studies have revealed multiple mechanisms that can lead to heterogeneity in ribosomal composition. This heterogeneity can lead to preferential translation of specific panels of mRNAs, and is defined in large part by the ribosomal protein (RP) content, amongst other things.
