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.

Lessons in aging from Myc knockout mouse models
Despite MYC being among the most intensively studied oncogenes, its role in normal development has not been determined as Myc−/− mice do not survival beyond mid-gestation.

Mutations in RPS19 may affect ribosome function and biogenesis in Diamond Blackfan anemia
Ribosomes, the cellular organelles translating the genetic code to proteins, are assemblies of RNA chains and many proteins (RPs) arranged in precise fine‐tuned interwoven structures.

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

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 ...

The mitochondrial ribosome and ribosomal RNA of the chick [PDF]
Reports have appeared on large molecular weight RNAs associated with the mitochondria of higher organisms. These include HeLa cells [ 1 ] , BHK-2 1 cells [2] , mouse L-cells [3,4] , rat liver [4, S] and Xenopus ovary [6] . This RNA consists of two predominant species found to be 17 S and 13 S by sedimentation [2, 31 .

Liver X Receptor β Related to Tumor Progression and Ribosome Gene Expression in Papillary Thyroid Cancer [PDF]
Background Intracellular lipid deposition has been reported in thyroid glands in obese animal and human. To understand the regulatory mechanism of lipid metabolism in thyroid cancer, we investigated the expression status of liver X receptor (LXR) and ...
