Fluctuations in protein synthesis from a single RNA template: stochastic kinetics of ribosomes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Proteins are polymerized by cyclic machines called ribosome which use their messenger RNA (mRNA) track also as the corresponding template and the process is called translation. We explore, in depth and detail, the stochastic nature of the translation.

Physical modeling of ribosomes along messenger RNA: estimating kinetic parameters from ribosome profiling experiments using a ballistic model [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Gene expression consists in the synthesis of proteins from the information encoded on DNA. One of the two main steps of gene expression is the translation of messenger RNA (mRNA) into polypeptide sequences of amino acids. Here, by taking into account mRNA degradation, we model the motion of ribosomes along mRNA with a ballistic model where particles ...

Hepatitis C virus 3'UTR regulates viral translation through direct interactions with the host translation machinery. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The 3' untranslated region (3'UTR) of hepatitis C virus (HCV) messenger RNA stimulates viral translation by an undetermined mechanism. We identified a high affinity interaction, conserved among different HCV genotypes, between the HCV 3'UTR and the host ...

WBSCR22/Merm1 is required for late nuclear pre-ribosomal RNA processing and mediates N7-methylation of G1639 in human 18S rRNA

open access: yesRNA: A publication of the RNA Society, 2015
Ribosomal (r)RNAs are extensively modified during ribosome synthesis and their modification is required for the fidelity and efficiency of translation.

Ribosome self-assembly leads to overlapping reproduction cycles and increases growth rate [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
In permissive environments, E. coli can double its dry mass every 21 minutes. During this time, ribosomes, RNA polymerases, and the proteome are all doubled. Yet, the question of how to relate bacterial doubling time to other biologically relevant time scales in the growth process remains illusive, due to the complex temporal nesting pattern of these ...

Drug hypersensitivity caused by alteration of the MHC-presented self-peptide repertoire [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Idiosyncratic adverse drug reactions are unpredictable, dose independent and potentially life threatening; this makes them a major factor contributing to the cost and uncertainty of drug development. Clinical data suggest that many such reactions involve

PTRF/Cavin-1 promotes efficient ribosomal RNA transcription in response to metabolic challenges

open access: yeseLife, 2016
Ribosomal RNA transcription mediated by RNA polymerase I represents the rate-limiting step in ribosome biogenesis. In eukaryotic cells, nutrients and growth factors regulate ribosomal RNA transcription through various key factors coupled to cell growth ...

The Lipid-RNA World [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2012
The simplest possible beginning of abiogenesis has been a riddle from the last century, which is most successfully solved by the Lipid World hypothesis. However, origin of the next stages of evolution starting form lipids is still in dark. We propose a 'Lipid-RNA World Scenario' based on the assumption that modern stable lipid-RNA interactions are ...

Complete nucleotide sequence of a 16S ribosomal RNA gene from Escherichia coli.

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 1978
The complete nucleotide sequence of the 16S RNA gene from the rrnB cistron of Escherichia coli has been determined by using three rapid DNA sequencing methods.

Mammalian Ribosomal Precursor RNA [PDF]

open access: yes, 1974
Both 18s and 28s ribosomal RNA in HeLa cells are transcribed in the nucleolus within a single large precursor RNA molecule (45S RNA) which is believed to contain, in addition to the ribosomal sequences, extensive non-ribosomal regions termed "transcribed
