Fibrillarin-mediated ribosomal RNA maturation is a novel therapeutic vulnerability in triple-negative breast cancer

open access: yesBreast Cancer Research
Background Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) remains one of the most challenging breast cancer subtypes to treat due to the lack of effective therapeutic options.

Identification of the prebiotic translation apparatus within the contemporary ribosome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
A structural element that could have existed independently in the prebiotic era was identified at the active site of the contemporary ribosome. It is suggested to have functioned as a proto-ribosome catalyzing peptide bond formation and non-coded ...

Stochastic theory of protein synthesis and polysome: ribosome profile on a single mRNA transcript

open access: yes, 2011
The process of polymerizing a protein by a ribosome, using a messenger RNA (mRNA) as the corresponding template, is called {\it translation}. Ribosome may be regarded as a molecular motor for which the mRNA template serves also as the track.

A novel class of microRNA-recognition elements that function only within open reading frames. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are well known to target 3' untranslated regions (3' UTRs) in mRNAs, thereby silencing gene expression at the post-transcriptional level.

Mitochondrial ribosome assembly in Neurospora. Structural analysis of mature and partially assembled ribosomal subunits by equilibrium centrifugation in CsCl gradients [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

Structural characterization of ribosome recruitment and translocation by type IV IRES

open access: yeseLife, 2016
Viral mRNA sequences with a type IV IRES are able to initiate translation without any host initiation factors. Initial recruitment of the small ribosomal subunit as well as two translocation steps before the first peptidyl transfer are essential for the ...

Elucidation of the Translation Initiation Factor Interaction Network of Haloferax volcanii Reveals Coupling of Transcription and Translation in Haloarchaea

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Translation is an important step in gene expression. Initiation of translation is rate-limiting, and it is phylogenetically more diverse than elongation or termination. Bacteria contain only three initiation factors. In stark contrast, eukaryotes contain

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.

The mechanism of error induction by the antibiotic viomycin provides insight into the fidelity mechanism of translation

open access: yeseLife, 2019
Applying pre-steady state kinetics to an Escherichia-coli-based reconstituted translation system, we have studied how the antibiotic viomycin affects the accuracy of genetic code reading.

Finding sense in the context

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Ribosomal profiling has shed new light on how ribosomes can ignore stop codons in messenger RNA.
