Analysis of proteins by a radical-free and highly reducing method of two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis

Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences
Kaltschmidt and Wittmann made significant advances in protein separation techniques by pioneering the two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2-D PAGE) method. However, it possessed two serious weaknesses.

Protein escape at the ribosomal exit tunnel: Effects of native interactions, tunnel length and macromolecular crowding

, 2018
How fast a post-translational nascent protein escapes from the ribosomal exit tunnel is relevant to its folding and protection against aggregation. Here, by using Langevin molecular dynamics, we show that non-local native interactions help decreasing the

Numerous cultivated and uncultivated viruses encode ribosomal proteins

Nature Communications, 2019
Viruses can encode genes that regulate the host's translational machinery to their advantage. Here, the authors show that viruses encode ribosomal proteins that can be incorporated into the host’s ribosome and may affect translation.

The multifaceted roles of ribosomal P complex in cancer

World Journal of Surgical Oncology
The ribosomal P complex, a flexible lateral stalk structure of the ribosomal large subunit, consists of the RPLP0, RPLP1, and RPLP2 proteins, and is essential for the elongation phase of protein biosynthesis.

Ribosome biogenesis: A central player in liver diseases

Genes and Diseases
Ribosome biogenesis is a multi-step process that initiates within the nucleolus, terminates in the cytoplasm, and determines the rate of protein synthesis. Ribosome biogenesis is essential for maintaining liver function.

Novel function of ribosomal protein RPL14B: regulation of CdSe quantum dots biosynthesis in living Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells

Microbial Cell Factories
Biosynthesis of CdSe quantum dots is the process of converting metal ions into semiconductor nanomaterials. Studies have shown that CdSe quantum dots synthesized by Saccharomyces cerevisiae are rich in ribosomal proteins, but the role of ribosomal ...

Nascent chains derived from a foldable protein sequence interact with specific ribosomal surface sites near the exit tunnel

Scientific Reports
In order to become bioactive, proteins must be translated and protected from aggregation during biosynthesis. The ribosome and molecular chaperones play a key role in this process. Ribosome-bound nascent chains (RNCs) of intrinsically disordered proteins
