During translation, aminoacyl-tRNAs are delivered to the ribosome by specialized GTPases called translation factors. Here, we report the tRNA binding to the P-site of 40 S ribosomes by a novel GTP-independent factor eIF2D isolated from mammalian cells. The binding of tRNAiMet occurs after the AUG codon finds its position in the P-site of 40 S ribosomes, the situation that takes place during initiation complex formation on the hepatitis C virus internal ribosome entry site or on some other specific RNAs (leaderless mRNA and A-rich mRNAs with relaxed scanning dependence). Its activity in tRNA binding with 40 S subunits does not require the presence of the aminoacyl moiety. Moreover, the factor possesses the unique ability to deliver non-Met (elongator) tRNAs into the P-site of the 40 S subunit. The corresponding gene is found in all eukaryotes and includes an SUI1 domain present also in translation initiation factor eIF1. The versatility of translation initiation strategies in eukaryotes is discussed. 相似文献

Leaderless mRNAs are translated in the absence of upstream signals that normally contribute to ribosome binding and translation efficiency. In order to identify ribosomal components that interact with leaderless mRNA, a fragment of leaderless cI mRNA from bacteriophage λ, with a 4-thiouridine (4S-U) substituted at the +2 position of the AUG start codon, was used to form cross-links to Escherichia coli ribosomes during binary (mRNA+ribosome) and ternary (mRNA+ribosome+initiator tRNA) complex formation. Ribosome binding assays (i.e., toeprints) demonstrated tRNA-dependent binding of leaderless mRNA to ribosomes; however, cross-links between the start codon and 30S subunit rRNA and r-proteins formed independent of initiator tRNA. Toeprints revealed that a leaderless mRNA's 5′-AUG is required for stable binding. Furthermore, the addition of a 5′-terminal AUG triplet to a random RNA fragment can make it both competent and competitive for ribosome binding, suggesting that a leaderless mRNA's start codon is a major feature for ribosome interaction. Cross-linking assays indicate that a subset of 30S subunit r-proteins, located at either end of the mRNA tunnel, contribute to tRNA-independent contacts and/or interactions with a leaderless mRNA's start codon. The interaction of leaderless mRNA with ribosomes may reveal features of mRNA binding and AUG recognition that are distinct from known signals but are important for translation initiation of all mRNAs. 相似文献

The wheat germ eukaryotic translation initiation factor (eIF) 4F binds tightly to the mRNA internal ribosome entry site (IRES) of tobacco etch virus (TEV) to promote translation initiation. When eIF4F is limiting, TEV is preferentially translated compared with host cell mRNA. To gain insight into the dynamic process of protein synthesis initiation and the mechanism of binding, the kinetics of eIF4F binding to TEV IRES were examined. The association rate constant (kon) and dissociation rate constant (koff) for eIF4F binding to IRES were 59 ± 2.1 μm−1 s−1 and 12.9 ± 0.3 s−1, respectively, comparable with the rates for capped RNA. Binding of eIF4E or eIF4F to the cap of mRNA is the rate-limiting step for initiation of cap-dependent protein synthesis. The concentration dependence of the reactions suggested a simple one-step association mechanism. However, the association rate was reduced more than 10-fold when KCl concentration was increased from 50 to 300 mm, whereas the dissociation rate constant was increased 2-fold. The addition of eIF4B and poly(A)-binding protein enhanced the association rate of eIF4F ∼3-fold. These results suggest a mechanism where eIF4F initially binds electrostatically, followed by a conformational change to further stabilize binding. Poly(A)-binding protein and eIF4B mainly affect the eIF4F/TEV association rate. These results demonstrate the first direct kinetic measurements of translation initiation factor binding to an IRES. 相似文献

Recently a ribosome dissociation factor that stimulates natural mRNA translation has been isolated from extracts of wheat germ. In this investigation, we have studied the subunit site of action of the purified ribosome dissociation factor (eucaryotic initiation), eIF-6. The following evidence strongly indicates that eIF-6 acts as a dissociation factor by binding to the 60 S ribosomal subunit and preventing its interaction with the 40 S subunit. Incubation of 60 S subunits with eIF-6 reduces the formation of 80 S monosomes when 40 S subunits are subsequently added at 5 mm Mg2+. The 40 S subunits preincubated with eIF-6 reassociate normally with 60 S subunits. 14C-labeled eIF-6 binds to 60 S subunits but not to 40 S subunits. Slight binding to 80 S ribosomes is also observed. The interaction of eIF-6 with the 60 S subunit requires an elevated temperature, and occurs rapidly at 37 °C. 相似文献

The post-termination ribosomal complex is disassembled by ribosome recycling factor (RRF) and elongation factor G. Without RRF, the ribosome is not released from mRNA at the termination codon and reinitiates translation downstream. This is called unscheduled translation. Here, we show that at the non-permissive temperature of a temperature-sensitive RRF strain, RRF is lost quickly, and some ribosomes reach the 3' end of mRNA. However, instead of accumulating at the 3' end of mRNA, ribosomes are released as monosomes. Some ribosomes are transferred to transfer-messenger RNA from the 3' end of mRNA. The monosomes thus produced are able to translate synthetic homopolymer but not natural mRNA with leader and canonical initiation signal. The pellet containing ribosomes appears to be responsible for rapid but reversible inhibition of most but not all of protein synthesis in vivo closely followed by decrease of cellular RNA and DNA synthesis. 相似文献

The binding of the aminocyclitol antibiotic spectinomycin to 70S ribosomes and to 30S subunits fromEscherichia coli has been investigated. The association was influenced by the presence of messenger RNA. The Kd for [3H]-4 OH-spectinomycin binding to 70S ribosomes was 2×10–7 M without mRNA (polyinosinic acid), and 1×10–6 M with polyinosinic acid. Dissociation of the antibiotic from the ribosomes was significantly affected by the presence of a bound messenger RNA, which reduced the rate of dissociation by a factor of 5.7. The presence of mRNA did not influence the association of spectinomycin with the 30S subunit. The dissociation rate from the small subunit was comparable to the rate of dissociation from the 70S ribosome and was not affected by the presence of mRNA. 相似文献

Plautia stali intestine virus (PSIV) has an internal ribosome entry site (IRES) at the intergenic region of the genome. The PSIV IRES initiates translation with glutamine rather than the universal methionine. To analyze the mechanism of IRES-mediated initiation, binding of IRES RNA to salt-washed ribosomes in the absence of translation factors was studied. Among the three pseudoknots (PKs I, II and III) within the IRES, PK III was the most important for ribosome binding. Chemical footprint analyses showed that the loop parts of the two stem–loop structures in Domain 2, which are highly conserved in related viruses, are protected by 40S but not by 60S ribosomes. Because PK III is close to the two loops, these structural elements were considered to be important for binding of the 40S subunit. Competitive binding analyses showed that the IRES RNA does not bind poly(U)-programmed ribosomes preincubated with tRNAPhe or its anticodon stem– loop (ASL) fragment. However, Domain 3-deleted IRES bound to programmed ribosomes preincubated with the ASL, suggesting that Domains 1 and 2 have roles in IRES binding to 40S subunits and that Domain 3 is located at the ribosome decoding site. 相似文献

The 970 loop (helix 31) of Escherichia coli 16S ribosomal RNA contains two modified nucleotides, m2G966 and m5C967. Positions A964, A969, and C970 are conserved among the Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya. The nucleotides present at positions 965, 966, 967, 968, and 971, however, are only conserved and unique within each domain. All organisms contain a modified nucleoside at position 966, but the type of the modification is domain specific. Biochemical and structure studies have placed this loop near the P site and have shown it to be involved in the decoding process and in binding the antibiotic tetracycline. To identify the functional components of this ribosomal RNA hairpin, the eight nucleotides of the 970 loop of helix 31 were subjected to saturation mutagenesis and 107 unique functional mutants were isolated and analyzed. Nonrandom nucleotide distributions were observed at each mutated position among the functional isolates. Nucleotide identity at positions 966 and 969 significantly affects ribosome function. Ribosomes with single mutations of m2G966 or m5C967 produce more protein in vivo than do wild-type ribosomes. Overexpression of initiation factor 3 specifically restored wild-type levels of protein synthesis to the 966 and 967 mutants, suggesting that modification of these residues is important for initiation factor 3 binding and for the proper initiation of protein synthesis. 相似文献

Initiation of mammalian protein synthesis. II. The assembly of the initiation complex with purified initiation factors 总被引:39,自引:0,他引:39
The assembly of initiation complexes is studied in a protein synthesis initiation assay containing ribosomal subunits, globin [125I]mRNA, [3H]Met-tRNAf, seven purified initiation factors, ATP and GTP. By omitting single components from the initiation assay, specific roles of the initiation factors, ATP and GTP are demonstrated. The initiation factor eIF-2 is required for the binding of Met-tRNAf to the 40 S ribosomal subunit. The initial Met-tRNAf binding to the small ribosomal subunit is a stringent prerequisite for the subsequent mRNA binding. The initiation factors eIF-3, eIF-4A, eIF-4B and eIF-4C together with ATP promote the binding of mRNA to the 40 S initiation complex. The association of the 40 S initiation complex with the 60 S ribosome subunit to form an 80 S initiation complex is mediated by the initiation factor eIF-5 and requires the hydrolysis of GTP. The factor eIF-1 gives a twofold overall stimulation of initiation complex formation. A model of the sequential steps in the assembly of the 80 S initiation complex in mammalian protein synthesis is presented. 相似文献

The locations of ribosome binding sites on the right end of bacteriophage lambda DNA were determined by measurement of the positions of ribosomes bound to single-stranded DNA visualized by electron microscopy. A total of ten ribosome binding sites were found between map co-ordinates 0.90 and 1.0. Four of these ribosome binding sites probably correspond to the polypeptide initiation sites for genes Q (0.910), S (0.928), R (0.936) and Rz (0.945). Six other ribosome binding sites were found which presumably indicate the presence of new lambda genes. Four of these ribosome binding sites (0.958, 0.967, 0.975, 0.995) are located to the right of Rz, which is the most rightward known lambda gene. A ribosome binding site is located at 0.923, between genes Q and S, in or near the 6 S RNA sequence. Another is located left of gene Q at 0.900. 相似文献

Initiation of mammalian protein synthesis: the importance of ribosome and initiation factor quality for the efficiency of in vitro systems 总被引:67,自引:0,他引:67
A highly efficient mammalian system was developed for the in vitro translation of exogenous rabbit globin messenger RNA. The system consists of purified ribosome subunits from mouse liver, rabbit reticulocytes, or guinea pig brain, partially purified initiation factors from rabbit reticulocytes, and elongation factors, termination factors, aminoacyl-tRNA synthethases and tRNA from rat liver in the form of pH 5-enzymes. (1) Emphasis was put on well-defined, structurally and functionally intact ribosomes, which we found to be the most difficult component of the system in terms of stability of activity. (2) An improved method for extraction of initiation factors from crude reticulocyte ribosomes was developed. Factor preparations of high specific activity were obtained by a simple, partial purification procedure. The crucial point was not to damage the ribosome structure during extraction of the initiation factors and to eliminate inhibitory components during extraction and purification. (3) The efficiency of the system was demonstrated quantitatively by showing that between and one mRNA molecule per ribosome saturates the system and that each ribosome recycles over the mRNA several times. (4) Major uncertainties and ambiguities in the search for and identification of true initiation factors, as opposed to structural ribosome proteins needed for the reconstitution of damaged ribosomes, can be reduced by using this system. 相似文献

Chloroplast initiation factor 3 from Euglena gracilis. Identification and initial characterization 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
A chloroplast ribosome dissociation factor (IF-3chl) has been identified in whole cell extracts of Euglena gracilis. This work represents the first report of an organellar ribosome dissociation factor. E. gracilis IF-3chl facilitates the dissociation of Escherichia coli ribosomes as demonstrated by sucrose density gradient analysis. Chloroplast IF-3 stimulates initiation complex formation on E. coli ribosomes with natural mRNA from the bacteriophage MS2. In addition, IF-3chl is effective in initiation complex formation with Euglena chloroplast or E. coli ribosomes in the presence of synthetic mRNA. IF-3chl is induced 12-fold by exposure of the cells to light. The chloroplast factor has been purified 30-fold by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and phosphocellulose. The chromatographic properties of this factor differ considerably from those of prokaryotic ribosome dissociation factors. 相似文献

The effects of initiation factor 3 on the formation of 30S initiation complexes with synthetic and natural messengers 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Initiation factor IF-3 is required for the binding of fMet-tRNA to 70S ribosomes directed by AUG, poly (U,G), f2RNA and T4 late RNA as well as for the binding of acPhe-tRNA directed by poly (U). In contrast, IF-3 is not required for the binding of the initiator aminoacyl-tRNAs to isolated 30S subunits directed by the synthetic messengers, but is required for maximal formation of initiation complexes with natural messengers. These data indicate that with synthetic messengers the sole function of IF-3 is to dissociate the 70S ribosomes into subunits, whereas with natural messengers IF-3 is required not only for dissociation of the ribosomes but also for the binding of the messenger to the 30S subunit. 相似文献

Substantial evidence is provided to corroborate our previous finding that Escherichia coli ribosomes recognize two binding sites on the 5' end of alfalfa mosaic virus (AMV) RNA 4 [for a preliminary report see Castel, A., Kraal, B., Kerklaan, P. R. M., Klok, J., and Bosch, L. (1977) Proc. Natl Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 74, 5509--5513]. Translation can start at either site using AcPhe-tRNA or fMet-RNA as initiator and takes place in the same reading frame along the monocistronic mRNA. The size and composition of the isolated extra NH2-terminal fragment of the acetylphenylalanyl product were found to be in agreement with the 5' non-coding region of the messenger. Removal of the 5'-terminal cap structure of AMV RNA 4 did not influence significantly both initiation reactions. Ribosomal protein S1 was essential for binding as well as incorporation of both fMet-tRNA and AcPhe-tRNA. A similar interaction on the ribosome was found for AcPhe-tRNA directed by AMV RNA 4 as for fMet-tRNA directed by either AMV RNA 4 or MS2 RNA with respect to the influence of initiation factors. It is concluded that the heterologous plant viral messenger is reliably translated in the E. coli system and that E. coli ribosomes recognize with high specificity an extra initiation site close to the 5' extremity of the messenger. The relationship of this site to a hypothetical entry site involved in the early recognition in the initiation mechanism between ribosome and messenger is discussed. 相似文献

Chloroplast ribosome-binding sites were identified on the plastidrbcL andpsbA mRNAs using toeprint analysis. TherbcL translation initiation domain is highly conserved and contains a prokaryotic Shine-Dalgarno (SD) sequence (GGAGG) located 4 to 12 nucleotides upstream of the initiator AUG. Toeprint analysis ofrbcL mRNA associated with plastid polysomes revealed strong toeprint signals 15 nucleotides downstream from the AUG indicating ribosome binding at the translation initiation site.Escherichia coli 30S ribosomes generated similar toeprint signals when mixed withrbcL mRNA in the presence of initiator tRNA. These results indicate that plastid SD sequences are functional in chloroplast translation initiation. ThepsbA initiator region lacks a SD sequence within 12 nucleotides of the initiator AUG. However, toeprint analysis of soluble and membrane polysome-associatedpsbA mRNA revealed ribosomes bound to the initiator region.E. coli 30S ribosomes did not associate with thepsbA translation initiation region.E. coli and chloroplast ribosomes bind to an upstream region which contains a conserved SD-like sequence. Therefore, translation initiation onpsbA mRNA may involve the transient binding of chloroplast ribosomes to this upstream SD-like sequence followed by scanning to localize the initiator AUG. Illumination 8-day-old dark-grown barley seedlings caused an increase in polysome-associatedpsbA mRNA and the abundance of initiation complexes bound topsbA mRNA. These results demonstrate that light modulates D1 translation initiation in plastids of older dark-grown barley seedlings. 相似文献

Escherichia coli ribosomes containing bound initiation factors were reacted with N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) under conditions where about 20 NEM molecules bind per ribosome. This treatment results in a large reduction in their ability to translate f2 RNA but not late T4 mRNA or polyuridylate. Iodoacetate produces a similar effect. These results indicate that ribosomal factors responsible for mRNA specificity differ appreciably in their sensitivity to inactivation by alkylation and suggest that translational control, dependent on mRNA selectivity, might operate by modifying the same or similar reactive sites. 相似文献

Photoaffinity labeling of 70S ribosomes from B. stearothermophilus by [3H]-1-(4-azidophenyl)-2-(5′-guanyl) pyrophosphate (APh-GDP) in the presence of fusidate and elongation factor G (EF-G) results in incorporation of tritium in the 50S proteins BL2, BL10 and BL22. Irradiation of the corresponding 5S RNA-protein complex in the presence of the GDP derivative gives only incorporation of tritium in BL10 and BL22. The proteins BL10 and BL22 comigrate in two dimensional gel electrophoresis with the 50S ribosomal proteins EL11 and EL18 from E. coli. The result suggests that the region at or near the guanine nucleotide binding site of the ribosome and the complex are the same. Since previous work has shown that the latter two are labeled upon irradiation of the ribosome with [3H]-APh-GDP, it is concluded that ribosomes from E. coli and B. stearothermophilus have structurally related GTPase sites. 相似文献

The specificity of the cell-free system of Escherichia coli for mRNA was examined, and the “accessibility” of some natural and synthetic RNAs to the ribosomes was determined by measurement of AcPhe-tRNA and fMet-tRNA binding, AcPhe-puromycin and fMet-puromycin formation, and polypeptide synthesis. The E. coli system effectively initiates the translation of various synthetic RNAs with AcPhe-tRNA or fMet-tRNA under conditions optimal for the translation of viral RNA. Poly(A,G,U) is accessible to the ribosomes according to all of the above criteria. Poly(A,C,G,U), 23 S rRNA, R17 RNA, and MS2 RNA, on the other hand, show limited accessibility when tested for initiator tRNA binding, or for AcPhe-puromycin and fMet-puromycin formation. MS2 and R17 RNA, but not poly(A,C,G,U) and 23 S rRNA, show accessibility when measured by polypeptide synthesis. The results suggest that, except at initiator sites of natural mRNA, an RNA containing about equal amounts of all four bases is inaccessible to E. coli ribosomes for polypeptide synthesis. Rate constants obtained for fMet-tRNA binding with MS2 RNA, poly(A,G,U), and poly(C,G,U) indicate that the ribosomes do not have any special affinity for the viral RNA. Thus, the selection of the initiator site in protein synthesis may be critically determined more by the accessibility of the initiator codon than by ribosomal recognition of the site. 相似文献
