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,

Puromycin Sensitivity of Ribosomal Label after Incorporation of 14C-Labelled Amino Acids into Isolated Mitochondria from Neurospora crassa [PDF]
Radioactive amino acids were incorporated into isolated mitochondria from Neurospora crassa. Then the mitochondrial ribosomes were isolated and submitted to density gradient centrifugation. A preferential labelling of polysomes was observed.

Sequence and expression of a microspore cDNA clone with homology to a ribosomal protein
A cDNA library was made to RNA from corn anthers containing developing pollen at the uninucleate microspore stage. A randomly selected clone from this library which contained an insert (531 bp) was isolated and sequenced.

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a bacterial pathogen that presents great health concerns. Treatment requires the use of last-line antibiotics, such as members of the oxazolidinone family, of which linezolid is the first member to ...

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.

Transport of Cytoplasmically Synthesized Proteins into the Mitochondria in a Cell Free System from Neurospora crassa [PDF]
Synthesis and transport of mitochondrial proteins were followed in a cell-free homogenate of Neurospora crassa in which mitochondrial translation was inhibited. Proteins synthesized on cytoplasmic ribosomes are transferred into the mitochondrial fraction.

Principles of cellular resource allocation revealed by condition-dependent proteome profiling
Growing cells coordinate protein translation with metabolic rates. Central to this coordination is ribosome production. Ribosomes drive cell growth, but translation of ribosomal proteins competes with production of non-ribosomal proteins.

Modeling Cell-Free Protein Synthesis Systems—Approaches and Applications
In vitro systems are ideal setups to investigate the basic principles of biochemical reactions and subsequently the bricks of life. Cell-free protein synthesis (CFPS) systems mimic the transcription and translation processes of whole cells in a ...

Mitochondrial Translation Products before and after Integration into the Mitochondrial Membrane in Neurospora crassa [PDF]
# 1. Nascent translation products on mitochondrial ribosomes were selectively labeled in vivo in the presence of cycloheximide with radioactive leucine. They were isolated together with the ribosomes. # 2.
