Sequential domain assembly of ribosomal protein S3 drives 40S subunit maturation
Ribosome biogenesis involves the hierarchical assembly of several proteins and RNA components. Here the authors describe a mechanism for ribosomal protein S3 incorporation into 40S ribosomal subunits that involves S3 dimerization and stepwise ...

N-TERMINAL PROCESSING OF RIBOSOMAL PROTEIN L27 IN STAPHYLOCOCCUS AUREUS [PDF]
The bacterial ribosome is essential to cell growth yet little is known about how its proteins attain their mature structures. Recent studies indicate that certain Staphlyococcus aureus bacteriophage protein sequences contain specific sites that may be ...

Probing complex RNA structures by mechanical force
RNA secondary structures of increasing complexity are probed combining single molecule stretching experiments and stochastic unfolding/refolding simulations. We find that force-induced unfolding pathways cannot usually be interpretated by solely invoking

BACKGROUND The correct identification of bacterial isolates is paramount for the correct diagnosis andtreatment of patients. The standard approach for bacterial identification relies on phenotypic tests, which are often time-consuming and unreliable when

Antibiotic resistance evolved via inactivation of a ribosomal RNA methylating enzyme. [PDF]
Modifications of the bacterial ribosome regulate the function of the ribosome and modulate its susceptibility to antibiotics. By modifying a highly conserved adenosine A2503 in 23S rRNA, methylating enzyme Cfr confers resistance to a range of ribosome ...

Mammalian cells in culture actively export specific microRNAs [PDF]
The discovery of microRNAs (miRNAs) as a new class of regulators of gene expression has triggered an explosion of research, but has left many unanswered questions about how this regulation works and how it is integrated with other regulatory mechanisms ...

Template-directed biopolymerization: tape-copying Turing machines
DNA, RNA and proteins are among the most important macromolecules in a living cell. These molecules are polymerized by molecular machines. These natural nano-machines polymerize such macromolecules, adding one monomer at a time, using another linear ...

Use of RNA secondary structure for evolutionary relationships : investigating RNase P and RNase MRP : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Genetics at Massey University, New Zealand [PDF]
Bioinformatics is applied here to examine whether RNA secondary structure data can reflect distant evolutionary relationships. This is important when there is little confidence in sequence data such as when looking at the evolution of RNase MRP (MRP ...
