Stochastic kinetics of ribosomes: single motor properties and collective behavior [PDF]

, 2009
Synthesis of protein molecules in a cell are carried out by ribosomes. A ribosome can be regarded as a molecular motor which utilizes the input chemical energy to move on a messenger RNA (mRNA) track that also serves as a template for the polymerization ...

microRNAs Mediated Regulation of the Ribosomal Proteins and its Consequences on the Global Translation of Proteins

Cells, 2021
Ribosomal proteins (RPs) are mostly derived from the energy-consuming enzyme families such as ATP-dependent RNA helicases, AAA-ATPases, GTPases and kinases, and are important structural components of the ribosome, which is a supramolecular ...

How bacteria keep proteins moving

eLife, 2017
Bacteria contain large numbers of negatively-charged proteins to avoid the electrostatic interactions with ribosomes that would dramatically reduce protein diffusion.

A morphological view on mitochondrial protein targeting [PDF]

, 1994
Mitochondrial protein targeting includes both intramitochondrial sorting of proteins encoded by the organellar genome and import and subsequent sorting of nuclear encoded precursor proteins. Only a few proteins are encoded by the mitochondrial genome and

Extensive evolution of cereal ribosome-inactivating proteins translates into unique structural features, activation mechanisms, and physiological roles [PDF]

, 2017
Ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) are a class of cytotoxic enzymes that can depurinate rRNAs thereby inhibiting protein translation. Although these proteins have also been detected in bacteria, fungi, and even some insects, they are especially ...

The metabolism of aged seeds. The free and membrane-bound polyribosomes of germinating rye grains of different ages

Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014
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.

Ribosome Builder: A software project to simulate the ribosome

Computational Biology and Chemistry, 2005
The Ribosome Builder is a software project that provides tools and techniques to create dynamic models of macromolecular systems from the rapidly growing numbers of atomic structural models. It includes a computer program that allows the user to assemble the multiple molecular components within a 3D space and to define the hypothetical interactions of ...

Adaptation of Translational Machinery in Malaria Parasites to Accommodate Translation of Poly-Adenosine Stretches Throughout Its Life Cycle

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Malaria is caused by unicellular apicomplexan parasites of the genus Plasmodium, which includes the major human parasite Plasmodium falciparum. The complex cycle of the malaria parasite in both mosquito and human hosts has been studied extensively. There
