Selective translation by alternative bacterial ribosomes [PDF]
Significance Many organisms, including bacteria, code for multiple paralogues of some ribosomal protein subunits. The relative contribution of these alternative subunits to ribosome function and protein synthesis is unknown and controversial.

Neuronal ribosomes exhibit dynamic and context-dependent exchange of ribosomal proteins
Owing to their morphological complexity and dense network connections, neurons modify their proteomes locally, using mRNAs and ribosomes present in the neuropil (tissue enriched for dendrites and axons).

Evolutionary shift toward protein-based architecture in trypanosomal mitochondrial ribosomes
Structure of the largest, most complex ribosome Ribosomes are two-subunit ribonucleoprotein assemblies that catalyze the translation of messenger RNA into protein. Ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) play key structural and functional roles. Ramrath et al. report the

Peptidyl tRNA Hydrolase Is Required for Robust Prolyl-tRNA Turnover in Mycobacterium tuberculosis
Enzymes involved in rescuing stalled ribosomes and recycling translation machinery are ubiquitous in bacteria and required for growth. Peptidyl tRNA drop-off is a type of abortive translation that results in the release of a truncated peptide that is ...

Computational and Functional Analysis of Structural Features in the ZAKα Kinase
The kinase ZAKα acts as the proximal sensor of translational impairment and ribotoxic stress, which results in the activation of the MAP kinases p38 and JNK. Despite recent insights into the functions and binding partners of individual protein domains in

The polyglutamine expansion of huntingtin (mHTT) causes Huntington disease (HD) and neurodegeneration, but the mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we found that mHtt promotes ribosome stalling and suppresses protein synthesis in mouse HD striatal neuronal ...
