Roles of transcriptional and translational control mechanisms in regulation of ribosomal protein synthesis in Escherichia coli [PDF]
Bacterial ribosome biogenesis is tightly regulated to match nutritional conditions and to prevent formation of defective ribosomal particles. InEscherichia coli, most ribosomal protein (r-protein) synthesis is coordinated with rRNA synthesis by a ...

Background Ribosomal biogenesis and ribosomal proteins have attracted attention in the context of tumor biology in recent years. Instead of being mere translational machineries, ribosomes might play an active role in tumor initiation and progression ...

Bacterial protein interaction networks: connectivity is ruled by gene conservation, essentiality and function [PDF]
Protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks are the backbone of all processes in living cells. In this work we relate conservation, essentiality and functional repertoire of a gene to the connectivity $k$ of the corresponding protein in the PPI networks ...

The conversion of a ribosomal RNA transcript to a cytoplasmic ribosome requires hundreds of accessory RNA and protein factors. Two papers published recently in Molecular Cell provide first looks at the association of these processing factors with the intermediates in ribosome synthesis (Harnpicharnchai et al., 2001; Bassler et al., 2001).

Hepatocellular carcinoma is one of the most prevalent neoplasms and the leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Mitochondrial ribosomal protein S23 is encoded by a nuclear gene and participates in mitochondrial protein translation ...

Since the mid-1990s, insights obtained from electron microscopy and X-ray crystallography have transformed our understanding of how the most important ribozyme in the cell, the ribosome, catalyzes protein synthesis. This review provides a brief account of how this structural revolution came to pass, and the impact it has had on our understanding of how
