Identifying ribosome heterogeneity using ribosome profiling
Abstract Recent studies have revealed multiple mechanisms that can lead to heterogeneity in ribosomal composition. This heterogeneity can lead to preferential translation of specific panels of mRNAs, and is defined in large part by the ribosomal protein (RP) content, amongst other things.

The conversion of a ribosomal RNA transcript to a cytoplasmic ribosome requires hundreds of accessory RNA and protein factors. Two papers published recently in Molecular Cell provide first looks at the association of these processing factors with the intermediates in ribosome synthesis (Harnpicharnchai et al., 2001; Bassler et al., 2001).

Ribosomal proteins: functions beyond the ribosome [PDF]
Although ribosomal proteins are known for playing an essential role in ribosome assembly and protein translation, their ribosome-independent functions have also been greatly appreciated. Over the past decade, more than a dozen of ribosomal proteins have been found to activate the tumor suppressor p53 pathway in response to ribosomal stress. In addition,

Ribosome-omics of the human ribosome [PDF]
The torrent of RNA-seq data becoming available not only furnishes an overview of the entire transcriptome but also provides tools to focus on specific areas of interest. Our focus on the synthesis of ribosomes asked whether the abundance of mRNAs encoding ribosomal proteins (RPs) matched the equimolar need for the RPs in the assembly of ribosomes.

Ribosomes, Ribosomal Subunits and Ribosomal Proteins from Myxococcus xanthus [PDF]
SUMMARY: Polyribosomes and ribosomes were isolated from vegetative Myxococcus xanthus FB and myxospores. The sedimentation coefficients of monoribosomes and ribosomal subunits were the same as those for equivalent particles from Escherichia coli. Conditions for the dissociation of the ribosomes and the unfolding of the subunits (in strong salt or very ...

Orchestrating ribosomal RNA folding during ribosome assembly
AbstractConstruction of the eukaryotic ribosome is a complex process in which a nascent ribosomal RNA (rRNA) emerging from RNA Polymerase I hierarchically folds into a native three‐dimensional structure. Modular assembly of individual RNA domains through interactions with ribosomal proteins and a myriad of assembly factors permit efficient ...

Mass spectrometry of ribosomes and ribosomal subunits [PDF]
Nanoflow electrospray ionization has been used to introduce intact Escherichia coli ribosomes into the ion source of a mass spectrometer. Mass spectra of remarkable quality result from a partial, but selective, dissociation of the particles within the mass spectrometer.
