Structure of Erm-modified 70S ribosome reveals the mechanism of macrolide resistance.

open access: yesNature Chemical Biology, 2020
Many antibiotics inhibit bacterial growth by binding to the ribosome and interfering with protein biosynthesis. Macrolides represent one of the most successful classes of ribosome-targeting antibiotics.

Discrete nascent chain lengths are required for the insertion of presecretory proteins into microsomal membranes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Ribosomes synthesizing nascent secretory proteins are targeted to the membrane by the signal recognition particle (SRP), a small ribonucleoprotein that binds to the signal peptide as it emerges from the ribosome.

Transcription-translation coupling: direct interactions of RNA polymerase with ribosomes and ribosomal subunits. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In prokaryotes, RNA polymerase and ribosomes can bind concurrently to the same RNA transcript, leading to the functional coupling of transcription and translation.

Genome-wide survey of ribosome collision

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2019
In protein synthesis, ribosome movement is not always smooth and is rather often impeded for numerous reasons. Although the deceleration of the ribosome defines the fates of the mRNAs and synthesizing proteins, fundamental issues remain to be addressed ...

Clustered bottlenecks in mRNA translation and protein synthesis

open access: yes, 2003
We construct an algorithm that generates large, band-diagonal transition matrices for a totally asymmetric exclusion process (TASEP) with local hopping rate inhomogeneities.

Molecular interactions between the constituents of small ribosomal subunit [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2012
Availability of high-resolution crystal structures of ribosomal subunits of different species opens a route to investigate about molecular interactions between its constituents and stabilization strategy. Structural analysis of the small ribosomal subunit shows that primary binder proteins are mainly employed in stabilizing the folded ribosomal RNA by ...

Impaired ribosome biogenesis: mechanisms and relevance to cancer and aging

open access: yesAging, 2019
The biosynthesis of ribosomes is a complex process that requires the coordinated action of many factors and a huge energy investment from the cell. Ribosomes are essential for protein production, and thus for cellular survival, growth and proliferation ...

Current and Future Experimental Strategies for Structural Analysis of Trichothecene Mycotoxins—A Prospectus

open access: yesToxins, 2011
Fungal toxins, such as those produced by members of the order Hypocreales, have widespread effects on cereal crops, resulting in yield losses and the potential for severe disease and mortality in humans and livestock.

Importance of potassium ions for ribosome structure and function revealed by long-wavelength X-ray diffraction

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
The ribosome, the largest RNA-containing macromolecular machinery in cells, requires metal ions not only to maintain its three-dimensional fold but also to perform protein synthesis.
