Atomic mutagenesis of stop codon nucleotides reveals the chemical prerequisites for release factor-mediated peptide release. [PDF]
Termination of protein synthesis is triggered by the recognition of a stop codon at the ribosomal A site and is mediated by class I release factors (RFs).

T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) is a subtype of ALL involving the malignant expansion of T-cell progenitors. It is driven by a number of different possible genetic lesions, including mutations in genes encoding for ribosomal proteins (RPs ...

REPARATION : ribosome profiling assisted (re-)annotation of bacterial genomes [PDF]
Prokaryotic genome annotation is highly dependent on automated methods, as manual curation cannot keep up with the exponential growth of sequenced genomes.

Antibiotic resistance evolved via inactivation of a ribosomal RNA methylating enzyme. [PDF]
Modifications of the bacterial ribosome regulate the function of the ribosome and modulate its susceptibility to antibiotics. By modifying a highly conserved adenosine A2503 in 23S rRNA, methylating enzyme Cfr confers resistance to a range of ribosome ...

The 5 ' untranslated region of protein kinase C delta directs translation by an internal ribosome entry segment that is most active in densely growing cells and during apoptosis. [PDF]
Protein kinase Cdelta (PKCdelta) is a member of the PKC family of phospholipid-dependent serine/threonine kinases and is involved in cell proliferation, apoptosis, and differentiation.

Abstract OR-15: Structural and Functional Studies of the Staphylococcus aureus Ribosome Hibernation [PDF]
Background: In bacteria, diminishing of protein synthesis is often accompanied with the formation of ribosomal dimers (or disomes). This process might be particularly important for pathogenic bacteria whose successful survival is a key factor for ...

Thermodynamic and kinetic insights into stop codon recognition by release factor 1. [PDF]
Stop codon recognition is a crucial event during translation termination and is performed by class I release factors (RF1 and RF2 in bacterial cells). Recent crystal structures showed that stop codon recognition is achieved mainly through a network of ...

Molecular Dynamics Simulations Suggest a Non-Doublet Decoding Model of −1 Frameshifting by tRNASer3
In-frame decoding in the ribosome occurs through canonical or wobble Watson−Crick pairing of three mRNA codon bases (a triplet) with a triplet of anticodon bases in tRNA.
