Incorporation in vivo of 14C-Labelled Amino Acids into the Proteins of Mitochondrial Ribosomes from Neurospora crassa Sensitive to Cycloheximide and Insensitive to Chloramphenicol [PDF]
Radioactive amino acids were incorporated in vivo into Neurospora crassa cells, and the mitochondrial ribosomes were isolated. The incorporation of radioactivity into the proteins of these ribosomes was inhibited by cycloheximide, but not by ...

It was found that spermidine (5mM) delivered to wheat seedlings through their roots prior to water stress affected the state of polysomes and ribosomes under water stress conditions, which was manifested in stabilization of 80 S ribosomes and in ...

Grains of winter rye harvested in 1976, 1978, 1982 and 1984 were studied. Free and membrane-bound polyribosomes were isolated from embryos of imbibing and germinating grains.

Stochastic theory of protein synthesis and polysome: ribosome profile on a single mRNA transcript
The process of polymerizing a protein by a ribosome, using a messenger RNA (mRNA) as the corresponding template, is called {\it translation}. Ribosome may be regarded as a molecular motor for which the mRNA template serves also as the track.

Conformational Dynamics of the Plug Domain of the SecYEG Protein-conducting Channel [PDF]
The central pore of the SecYEG preprotein-conducting channel is closed at the periplasmic face of the membrane by a plug domain. To study its conformational dynamics, the plug was labeled site-specifically with an environment-sensitive fluorophore.

Bacterial Longevity Requires Protein Synthesis and a Stringent Response
Gram-negative bacteria in infections, biofilms, and industrial settings often stop growing due to nutrient depletion, immune responses, or environmental stresses.

How Cancer Exploits Ribosomal RNA Biogenesis: A Journey beyond the Boundaries of rRNA Transcription
The generation of new ribosomes is a coordinated process essential to sustain cell growth. As such, it is tightly regulated according to cell needs. As cancer cells require intense protein translation to ensure their enhanced growth rate, they exploit ...

Quantifying the benefit of a proteome reserve in fluctuating environments. [PDF]
The overexpression of proteins is a major burden for fast-growing bacteria. Paradoxically, recent characterization of the proteome of Escherichia coli found many proteins expressed in excess of what appears to be optimal for exponential growth.
