The ribosome-associated protein LBP/p40, which was originally named after "laminin binding protein precursor p40," is distributed on the cell surface as laminin binding protein p67 (LBP/p67), in the nucleus, and on 40S ribosomes. In a broad range of eukaryotes, the localization of LBP/p40 on the 40S ribosome is well conserved. Two yeast homologs of LBP/p40 are believed to be essential for cell viability and each gene product probably corresponds to the assembly and/or stability of the 40S ribosomal subunit. The precise role of LBP/p40 in translation, however, remains to be elucidated, especially in higher eukaryotes. In this report, we used a yeast two-hybrid screening method to isolate molecules associated with human LBP/p40 protein on ribosomes. We found that the 40S ribosomal protein S21 was tightly bound with LBP/p40 in this yeast two-hybrid system and in in vitro analysis. Further, we discovered that the association required a broad region of the LBP/p40 amino acid sequence, which corresponds to the highly conserved region of LBP/p40 homologs among eukaryotes. 相似文献

Functional ribosomes synthesize proteins in all living cells and are composed of two labile associated subunits, which are made of rRNA and ribosomal proteins. The rRNA of the small 40S subunit (SSU) of the functional eukaryotic 80S ribosome decodes the mRNA molecule and the large 60S subunit (LSU) rRNA catalyzes protein synthesis. Recent fine structure determinations of the ribosome renewed interest in the role of ribosomal proteins in modulation of the core ribosomal functions. RpL10/Grc5p is a component of the LSU and is a multifunctional translational regulator, operating in 60S subunit biogenesis, 60S subunit export and 60S subunit joining with the 40S subunit. Here, we report that rpL10/Grc5p functionally interacts with the nuclear export factor Nmd3p in modulation of the cellular polysome complement and with the small subunit protein rpS6 in subunit joining and differential protein expression. 相似文献

The human ribosomal protein SA, known also as a precursor of the cell-surface laminin receptor, LAMR, is a protein of the 40S ribosomal subunit. It is homologous to eubacterial ribosomal protein S2p, but has a eukaryote-specific C-terminal domain (CTD) that is responsible in LAMR for the binding of laminin as well as prions and several viruses. Using serial deletions in the SA CTD, we showed that region between amino acids 236-262 is required for binding of the protein to 40S ribosomal subunits. All SA mutants containing this region protected nucleotides in hairpin 40 (which is not bound to any protein in the eubacterial 30S ribosomal subunit) of the 18S rRNA from hydroxyl radical attack. Comparison of our data with the cryo-EM models of the mammalian 40S ribosomal subunit allowed us to locate the SA CTD in the spatial structure of the 40S subunit. 相似文献

Ribosome biogenesis is a conserved process in eukaryotes that requires a large number of small nucleolar RNAs and trans-acting proteins. The Saccharomyces cerevisiae MRD1 (multiple RNA-binding domain) gene encodes a novel protein that contains five consensus RNA-binding domains. Mrd1p is essential for viability. Mrd1p partially co-localizes with the nucleolar protein Nop1p. Depletion of Mrd1p leads to a selective reduction of 18 S rRNA and 40 S ribosomal subunits. Mrd1p associates with the 35 S precursor rRNA (pre-rRNA) and U3 small nucleolar RNAs and is necessary for the initial processing at the A(0)-A(2) cleavage sites in pre-rRNA. The presence of five RNA-binding domains in Mrd1p suggests that Mrd1p may function to correctly fold pre-rRNA, a requisite for proper cleavage. Sequence comparisons suggest that Mrd1p homologues exist in all eukaryotes. 相似文献

Three archaea-specific ribosomal proteins recently identified show no sequence homology with other known proteins. Here we determined the structure of L46a, the most conserved one among the three proteins, from Sulfolobus solfataricus P2 using NMR spectroscopy. The structure presents a twisted β-sheet formed by the N-terminal part and two helices at the C-terminus. The L46a structure has a positively charged surface which is conserved in the L46a protein family and is the potential rRNA-binding site. Searching homologous structures in Protein Data Bank revealed that the structure of L46a represents a novel protein fold. The backbone dynamics identified by NMR relaxation experiments reveal significant flexibility at the rRNA binding surface. The potential position of L46a on the ribosome was proposed by fitting the structure into a previous electron microscopy map of the ribosomal 50S subunit, which indicated that L46a contacts to domain I of 23S rRNA near a multifunctional ribosomal protein L7ae. 相似文献

Prp43p is a RNA helicase required for pre‐mRNA splicing and for the synthesis of large and small ribosomal subunits. The molecular functions and modes of regulation of Prp43p during ribosome biogenesis remain unknown. We demonstrate that the G‐patch protein Pfa1p, a component of pre‐40S pre‐ribosomal particles, directly interacts with Prp43p. We also show that lack of Gno1p, another G‐patch protein associated with Prp43p, specifically reduces Pfa1p accumulation, whereas it increases the levels of the pre‐40S pre‐ribosomal particle component Ltv1p. Moreover, cells lacking Pfa1p and depleted for Ltv1p show strong 20S pre‐rRNA accumulation in the cytoplasm and reduced levels of 18S rRNA. Finally, we demonstrate that Pfa1p stimulates the ATPase and helicase activities of Prp43p. Truncated Pfa1p variants unable to fully stimulate the activity of Prp43p fail to complement the 20S pre‐rRNA processing defect of Δpfa1 cells depleted for Ltv1p. Our results strongly suggest that stimulation of ATPase/helicase activities of Prp43p by Pfa1p is required for efficient 20S pre‐rRNA‐to‐18S rRNA conversion. 相似文献

Ribosomal protein L2 from Escherichia coli binds to and protects from nuclease digestion a substantial portion of 'domain IV' of 23S rRNA. In particular, oligonucleotides derived from the sequence 1757-1935 were isolated and shown to rebind specifically to protein L2 in vitro. Other L2-protected oligonucleotides, also derived from domain IV (i.e. from residues 1955-2010) did not rebind to protein L2 in vitro nor did others derived from domain I. Given that protein L2 is widely believed to be located in the peptidyl transferase centre of the 50S ribosomal subunit, these data suggest that domain IV of 23S rRNA is also present in that active site of the ribosomal enzyme. 相似文献

Ribosomal protein L5 is a 5S rRNA binding protein in the large subunit and plays an essential role in the promotion of a particular conformation of 5S rRNA. The crystal structure of the ribosomal protein L5 from Bacillus stearothermophilus has been determined at 1.8 A resolution. The molecule consists of a five-stranded antiparallel beta-sheet and four alpha-helices, which fold in a way that is topologically similar to the ribonucleoprotein (RNP) domain. The molecular shape and electrostatic representation suggest that the concave surface and loop regions are involved in 5S rRNA binding. To identify amino acid residues responsible for 5S rRNA binding, we made use of Ala-scanning mutagenesis of evolutionarily conserved amino acids occurring in the beta-strands and loop regions. The mutations of Asn37 at the beta1-strand and Gln63 at the loop between helix 2 and beta3-strand as well as that of Phe77 at the tip of the loop structure between the beta2- and beta3-strands caused a significant reduction in 5S rRNA binding. In addition, the mutations of Thr90 on the beta3-strand and Ile141 and Asp144 at the loop between beta4- and beta5-strands moderately reduced the 5S rRNA-binding affinity. Comparison of these results with the more recently analyzed structure of the 50S subunit from Haloarcula marismortui suggests that there are significant differences in the structure at N- and C-terminal regions and probably in the 5S rRNA binding. 相似文献

Ebp2p, the yeast homolog of human Epstein-Barr virus nuclear antigen 1-binding protein 2, is essential for biogenesis of the 60 S ribosomal subunit. Two-hybrid screening exhibited that, in addition to factors necessary for assembly of the 60 S subunit, Ebp2p interacts with Rps16p, ribosomal protein S16, and the 40 S ribosomal subunit assembly factor, Utp11p, as well as Yil019w, the function of which was previously uncharacterized. Depletion of Yil019w resulted in reduction in levels of both of 18 S rRNA and 40 S ribosomal subunit without affecting levels of 25 S rRNA and 60 S ribosomal subunits. 35 S pre-rRNA and aberrant 23 S RNA accumulated, indicating that pre-rRNA processing at sites A(0)-A(2) is inhibited when Yil019w is depleted. Each combination from Yil019w, Utp11p, and Rps16p showed two-hybrid interaction. 相似文献

Yeast NSR1 protein that has structural similarity to mammalian nucleolin is involved in pre-rRNA processing. 总被引:17,自引:0,他引:17
We have identified a yeast gene encoding a protein structurally similar to mammalian nucleolin. The gene was previously cloned as a cold shock-inducible gene and found to be identical to yeast NSR1 gene, which encodes a protein that has been reported to bind sequences required for nuclear localization of protein. The carboxyl-terminal half of NSR1, consisting of two tandemly repeated putative RNA-binding domains and a glycine/arginine-rich domain, has 37% amino acid sequence identity with the same part of mammalian nucleolin, while no sequence similarities are found between their amino-terminal regions. Although a null mutation of the NSR1 gene was not lethal, it caused a severe defect on growth. Pulse-labeling analysis revealed that the nsr1 strain had reduced levels of 18 S rRNA and accumulated 35 S pre-rRNA compared with the wild-type strain. The level of 25 S rRNA was also slightly reduced in the nsr1 strain. Pulse-chase labeling experiments showed slow processing of 35 S pre-rRNA and impaired methylation of 18 S rRNA. The ratio of 40 S to 60 S ribosomal subunits in the nsr1 strain is significantly reduced and is consistent with impaired synthesis of 18 S rRNA. The results indicate that NSR1 is involved in pre-rRNA processing and ribosome biosynthesis in yeast. 相似文献

Eukaryotic translation initiation factor eIF5B is a ribosome-dependent GTPase that mediates displacement of initiation factors from the 40S ribosomal subunit in 48S initiation complexes and joining of 40S and 60S subunits. Here, we determined eIF5B's position on 80S ribosomes by directed hydroxyl radical cleavage. In the resulting model, eIF5B is located in the intersubunit cleft of the 80S ribosome: domain 1 is positioned near the GTPase activating center of the 60S subunit, domain 2 interacts with the 40S subunit (helices 3, 5 and the base of helix 15 of 18S rRNA and ribosomal protein (rp) rpS23), domain 3 is sandwiched between subunits and directly contacts several ribosomal elements including Helix 95 of 28S rRNA and helix 44 of 18S rRNA, domain 4 is near the peptidyl-transferase center and its helical subdomain contacts rpL10E. The cleavage data also indicate that binding of eIF5B might induce conformational changes in both subunits, with ribosomal segments wrapping around the factor. Some of these changes could also occur upon binding of other translational GTPases, and may contribute to factor recognition. 相似文献

Mutations in the nucleolar proteins Tma23 and Nop6 suppress the malfunction of the Nep1 protein 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The nucleolar Saccharomyces cerevisiae protein Nep1 was previously shown to bind to a specific site of the 18S rRNA and to be involved in assembly of Rps19p into pre-40S ribosome subunits. Here we report on the identification of tma23 and nop6 mutations as recessive suppressors of a nep1(ts) mutant allele and the nep1 deletion as well. Green fluorescent protein fusions localized Tma23p and Nop6p within the nucleolus, indicating their function in ribosome biogenesis. The high lysine content of both proteins and an RNA binding motif in the Nop6p amino acid sequence suggest RNA-binding functions for both factors. Surprisingly, in contrast to Nep1p, Tma23p and Nop6p seem to be specific for fungi as no homologues could be found in higher eukaryotes. In contrast to most other ribosome biogenesis factors, Tma23p and Nop6p are nonessential in S. cerevisiae. Interestingly, the tma23 mutants showed a considerably increased resistance against the aminoglycoside G418, probably due to a structural change in the 40S ribosomal subunit, which could be the result of incorrectly folded 18S rRNA gene, missing rRNA modifications or the lack of a ribosomal protein. 相似文献

NSR1 is a yeast nuclear localization sequence-binding protein showing striking similarity in its domain structure to nucleolin. Cells lacking NSR1 are viable but have a severe growth defect. We show here that NSR1, like nucleolin, is involved in ribosome biogenesis. The nsr1 mutant is deficient in pre-rRNA processing such that the initial 35S pre-rRNA processing is blocked and 20S pre-rRNA is nearly absent. The reduced amount of 20S pre-rRNA leads to a shortage of 18S rRNA and is reflected in a change in the distribution of 60S and 40S ribosomal subunits; there is no free pool of 40S subunits, and the free pool of 60S subunits is greatly increased in size. The lack of free 40S subunits or the improper assembly of these subunits causes the nsr1 mutant to show sensitivity to the antibiotic paromomycin, which affects protein translation, at concentrations that do not affect the growth of the wild-type strain. Our data support the idea that NSR1 is involved in the proper assembly of pre-rRNA particles, possibly by bringing rRNA and ribosomal proteins together by virtue of its nuclear localization sequence-binding domain and multiple RNA recognition motifs. Alternatively, NSR1 may also act to regulate the nuclear entry of ribosomal proteins required for proper assembly of pre-rRNA particles. 相似文献

Previous analyses of complexes of 40S ribosomal subunits with the hepatitis C virus (HCV) internal ribosome entry site (IRES) have revealed contacts made by the IRES with ribosomal proteins. Here, using chemical probing, we show that the HCV IRES also contacts the backbone and bases of the CCC triplet in the 18S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) expansion segment 7. These contacts presumably provide interplay between IRES domain II and the AUG codon close to ribosomal protein S5, which causes a rearrangement of 18S rRNA structure in the vicinity of the universally conserved nucleotide G1639. As a result, G1639 becomes exposed and the corresponding site of the 40S subunit implicated in transfer RNA discrimination can select . These data are the first demonstration at nucleotide resolution of direct IRES–rRNA interactions and how they induce conformational transition in the 40S subunit allowing the HCV IRES to function without AUG recognition initiation factors. 相似文献

Erb1 (Eukaryotic Ribosome Biogenesis 1) protein is essential for the maturation of the ribosomal 60S subunit. Functional studies in yeast and mammalian cells showed that altogether with Nop7 and Ytm1 it forms a stable subcomplex called PeBoW that is crucial for a correct rRNA processing. The exact function of the protein within the process remains unknown. The N-terminal region of the protein includes a well conserved region shown to be involved in PeBoW complex formation whereas the carboxy-terminal half was predicted to contain seven WD40 repeats. This first structural report on Erb1 from yeast describes the architecture of a seven-bladed β-propeller domain that revealed a characteristic extra motif formed by two α-helices and a β-strand that insert within the second WD repeat. We performed analysis of molecular surface and crystal packing, together with multiple sequence alignment and comparison of the structure with other β-propellers, in order to identify areas that are more likely to mediate protein-protein interactions. The abundance of many positively charged residues on the surface of the domain led us to investigate whether the propeller of Erb1 might be involved in RNA binding. Three independent assays confirmed that the protein interacted in vitro with polyuridilic acid (polyU), thus suggesting a possible role of the domain in rRNA rearrangement during ribosome biogenesis. 相似文献
