Interaction of ribosomal proteins S5, S6, S11, S12, S18 and S21 with 16 S rRNA   总被引:21,自引:0,他引:21  
We have examined the effects of assembly of ribosomal proteins S5, S6, S11, S12, S18 and S21 on the reactivities of residues in 16 S rRNA towards chemical probes. The results show that S6, S18 and S11 interact with the 690-720 and 790 loop regions of 16 S rRNA in a highly co-operative manner, that is consistent with the previously defined assembly map relationships among these proteins. The results also indicate that these proteins, one of which (S18) has previously been implicated as a component of the ribosomal P-site, interact with residues near some of the recently defined P-site (class II tRNA protection) nucleotides in 16 S rRNA. In addition, assembly of protein S12 has been found to result in the protection of residues in both the 530 stem/loop and the 900 stem regions; the latter group is closely juxtaposed to a segment of 16 S rRNA recently shown to be protected from chemical probes by streptomycin. Interestingly, both S5 and S12 appear to protect, to differing degrees, a well-defined set of residues in the 900 stem/loop and 5'-terminal regions. These observations are discussed in terms of the effects of S5 and S12 on streptomycin binding, and in terms of the class III tRNA protection found in the 900 stem of 16 S rRNA. Altogether these results show that many of the small subunit proteins, which have previously been shown to be functionally important, appear to be associated with functionally implicated segments of 16 S rRNA.  相似文献

The cDNAs for the human ribosomal proteins S3, S5, S10, S19, and S26 were introduced into a pET-15b vector and recombinant proteins containing an N-(His)(6)-fusion tag were expressed in high yields. To resolve the problem of frameshift during expression of S26 caused by the presence of tandem arginine codons in its mRNA that are rare in Escherichia coli, we substituted the rare AGA codon with the more frequent arginine codon (CGC) using a primer with this mutation for PCR amplification of S26 cDNA. All proteins were expressed mainly in the form of inclusion bodies and purified to homogeneity by metal affinity chromatography in one step (except for S3). Expression of the full-length S3 was accompanied by the formation of a low molecular weight polypeptide that was co-purified with S3 by metal affinity chromatography. Complete purification of S3 required an additional gel-filtration step. The proteins were refolded by stepwise dialysis. Both identity and purity of the proteins were confirmed by 2D PAGE. The proteins obtained could be used in a wide range of applications in biophysics, biochemistry, and molecular biology.  相似文献

Neutron scattering distance data are presented for 33 protein pairs in the 30 S ribosomal subunit from Escherichia coli, along with the methods used for measuring distances between its exchangeable components. When combined with prior data, these new results permit the positioning of S2, S13, S16, S17, S19 and S21 in the 30 S ribosomal subunit, completing the mapping of its proteins by neutron scattering. Comparisons with other data suggest that the neutron map is a reliable guide to the quaternary structure of the 30 S subunit.  相似文献

Interaction of proteins S16, S17 and S20 with 16 S ribosomal RNA   总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9  
We have used rapid chemical probing methods to examine the effect of assembly of ribosomal proteins S16, S17 and S20 on the reactivity of individual residues of 16 S rRNA. Protein S17 strongly protects a compact region of the RNA between positions 245 and 281, a site previously assigned to binding of S20. Protein S20 also protects many of these same positions, albeit more weakly than S17. Strong S20-dependent protections are seen elsewhere in the 5' domain, most notably at positions 108, and in the 160-200 and 330 loop regions. Enenpectedly, S20 also causes protection of several bases in the 1430-1450 region, in the 3' minor domain. In the presence of the primary binding proteins S4, S8 and S20, we observe a variety of effects that result from assembly of the secondary binding protein S16. Most strongly protected are nucleotides around positions 50, 120, 300 to 330 and 360 in the 5' domain, and positions 606 to 630 in the central domain. In addition, numerous nucleotides in the 5' and central domains exhibit enhanced reactivity in response to S16. Interestingly, the strength of the S20-dependent effects in the 1430-1450 region is attenuated in the presence of S4 + S8 + S20, and restored in the presence of S4 + S8 + S20 + S16. Finally, the previously observed rearrangement of the 300 region stem-loop that occurs during assembly is shown to be an S16-dependent event. We discuss these findings with respect to assignment of RNA binding sites for these proteins, and in regard to the co-operativity of ribosome assembly.  相似文献

Antibodies were raised in rabbits against 70S ribosomes, 50S and 30S ribosomal subunits individually. Purified immunoglobulins from the antiserum against each of the above ribosomal entities were tested for their capabilities of precipitating 70S, 50S and 30S ribosomes. The observations revealed the following: (i) The antiserum (IgG) raised against 70S ribosomes precipitates 70S ribosomes completely, while partial precipitation is seen with the subunits, the extent of precipitation being more with the 50S subunits than with 30S subunits; addition of 50S subunits to the 30S subunits facilitates the precipitation of 30S subunits by the antibody against 70S ribosomes. (ii) Antiserum against 50S subunits has the ability to immunoprecipitate both 50S and 70S ribosomes to an equal extent. (iii) Antiserum against 30S subunits also has the property of precipitating both 30S and 70S ribosomes. The differences in the structural organisation of the two subunits may account for the differences in their immunoprecipitability.  相似文献

The reactivity of protein S4-specific antibody preparations with 30 S ribosomal subunits and intermediates of in vitro subunit reconstitution has been characterized using a quantitative antibody binding assay. Anti-S4 antibody preparations did not react with native 30 S ribosomal subunits; however, they did react with various subunit assembly intermediates that lacked proteins S5 and S12. The inclusion of proteins S5 and S12 in reconstituted particles resulted in a large decrease in anti-S4 reactivity, and it was concluded that proteins S5 and S12 are primarily responsible for the masking of S4 antigenic determinants in the 30 S subunit. The effect of S5 and S12 on S4 accessibility is consistent with data from a variety of other approaches, suggesting that these proteins form a structural and functional domain in the small ribosomal subunit.  相似文献

A map of the positions of 12 of the 21 proteins of the 30 S ribosomal subunit of Escherichia coli (S1, S3, S4, S5, S6, S7, S8, S9, S10, S11, S12 and S15), based on neutron scattering, is presented and discussed. Estimates for the radii of gyration of these proteins in situ are also obtained. It appears that many ribosomal proteins have compact configurations in the particle.  相似文献

Ribonuclease S peptide and S protein offer a unique complementation system to understand the finer features of molecular recognition. In the present study the S peptide (1-16), and its retro and retro-inverso analogs have been analyzed for their structural and biological attributes. RPHPLC, CD, and NMR analyses have revealed that the physicochemical and conformational properties of the S peptide are distinct from those of its retro and retro-inverso analogs. On the functional side, while the S peptide complemented the S protein to give RNase activity, was recognized by anti-S peptide antibodies and induced T cell proliferation, neither the retro nor the retro-inverso S peptides could do so.  相似文献

We have constructed complexes of ribosomal proteins S8, S15, S8 + S15 and S8 + S15 + S6 + S18 with 16 S ribosomal RNA, and probed the RNA moiety with a set of structure-specific chemical and enzymatic probes. Our results show the following effects of assembly of proteins on the reactivity of specific nucleotides in 16 S rRNA. (1) In agreement with earlier work, S8 protects nucleotides in and around the 588-606/632-651 stem from attack by chemical probes; this is supported by protection in and around these same regions from nucleases. In addition, we observe protection of positions 573-575, 583, 812, 858-861 and 865. Several S8-dependent enhancements of reactivity are found, indicating that assembly of this protein is accompanied by conformational changes in 16 S rRNA. These results imply that protein S8 influences a much larger region of the central domain than was previously suspected. (2) Protein S15 protects nucleotides in the 655-672/734-751 stem, in agreement with previous findings. We also find S15-dependent protection of nucleotides in the 724-730 region. Assembly of S15 causes several enhancements of reactivity, the most striking of which are found at G664, A665, G674, and A718. (3) The effects of proteins S6 and S18 are dependent on the simultaneous presence of both proteins, and on the presence of protein S15. S6 + S18-dependent protections are located in the 673-730 and 777-803 regions. We observed some variability in our results with these proteins, depending on the ratio of protein to RNA used, and in different trials using enzymatic probes, possibly due to the limited solubility of protein S18. Consistently reproducible was protection of nucleotides in the 664-676 and 715-729 regions. Among the latter are three of the nucleotides (G664, G674 and A718) that are strongly enhanced by assembly of protein S15. This result suggests that an S15-induced conformational change involving these nucleotides may play a role in the co-operative assembly of proteins S6 and S18.  相似文献

Summary E. coli ribosomal 16S RNA preparted by an acetic acid-urea extraction technique individually binds, in addition to the seven established proteins, 6 new 30S ribosomal proteins (S3, S5, S9, S12, S18 and S11) (Hochkeppel et al., 1976). In this communication we demonstrate the site specificity of these proteins. Binding curves of the individual proteins with acetic acid-urea 16S RNA show that the binding of all six proteins to the RNA reaches a plateau at 0.3–0.97 copies per 16S RNA molecule. No significant binding of these proteins to classical phenol extracted 16S RNA is observed, with the exception of S13 which binds 0.2 copies of protein per molecule of 16S RNA. Specificity of binding of these proteins is also demonstrated in chase experiments. The site specificity of individual [3H]-labeled 30S proteins bound to 16S RNA is tested by the addition of non-radioactive 30S total protein to the reaction mixture.  相似文献

A metnod is described for the isolation of 2S, 7S and 11S proteins of soybean. The unfractionated proteins are first precipitated with Hg(II) which yields a 11S-rich precipitate and this is further purified by (NH4)2SO4precipitation. From Mg(II)supernatant which is rich in 7S and 2S proteins, they are separated by the use of (NH4)2SO4 and cold ethanol. The 7S ana 11S protein are obtained in a highly purified form as indicated by ultracentrifugation and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.  相似文献

The effect of 30S subunit attachment on the accessibility of specific sites in 5 S and 23 S RNA in 50 S ribosomal subunits was studied by means of the guanine-specific reagent kethoxal. Oligonucleotides surrounding the sites of kethoxal substitution were resolved and quantitated by diagonal electrophoresis. In contrast to the extensive protection of sites in 16 S RNA in 70 S ribosomes (Chapman &; Noller, 1977), only two strongly (approx. 90%) protected sites were detected in 23 S RNA. The nucleotide sequences at these sites are
in which the indicated kethoxal-reactive guanines (with K above them) are strongly protected by association of 30 S and 50 S subunits. The latter sequence has the potential to base-pair with nucleotides 816 to 821 of the 16 S RNA, a site which has been shown to be protected from kethoxal by 50 S subunits and essential for subunit association. Six additional sites in 23 S RNA are partially (30 to 50%) protected by 30 S subunits. One of these sequences,
is complementary to nucleotides 787 to 792 of 16 S RNA. a site which is also 50 S-protected and essential for association. Of the two kethoxal-reactive 5 S RNA sites in 50 S subunits, G13 is partially protected in 70 S ribosomes. while G41 remains unaffected by subunit association.The relatively small number of kethoxal-reactive sites in 23 S RNA that is strongly protected in 70 S ribosomes suggests that subunit association may involve contacts between single-stranded sites in 16 S RNA and 50 S subunit proteins or non-Watson-Crick interactions with 23 S RNA. in addition to the two suggested base-paired contacts.  相似文献

The results of 17 new neutron distance measurements on protein pairs within the 30 S ribosomal subunit are reported. A partial map of the structure is presented giving the locations of S3, S4, S5, S7, S8, S9, S10, S11 and S12. This map is compared to other information on ribosomal organization and function.  相似文献

4S, 5S, AND 18S + 28S RNA from the newt Taricha granulosa granulosa were iodinated in vitro with carrier-free 125I and hybridized to the denatured chromosomes of Taricha granulosa and Batrachoseps weighti. Iodinated 18S + 28S RNA hybridizes to the telomeric region on the shorter arm of chromosome 2 and close to the centromere on the shorter arm of chromosome 9 from T. granulosa. On this same salamander the label produced by the 5S RNA is located close to or on the centromere of chromosome 7 and the iodinated 4S RNA labels the distal end of the longer arm of chromosome 5. On the chromosomes of B. wrighti, 18S + 28S RNA hybridizes close to the centromeric region on the longer arm of the largest chromosome. Two centromeric sites are hybridized by the iodinated 5S RNA. After hybridization with iodinated 4S RNA, label is found near the end of the shorter arm of chromosome 3. It is concluded that both ribosomal and transfer RNA genes are clustered in the genome of these two salamanders.  相似文献

The termini of rRNA processing intermediates and of mature rRNA species encoded by the 3' terminal region of 23S rDNA, by 4.5S rDNA, by the 5' terminal region of 5S rDNA and by the 23S/4.5S/5S intergenic regions from Zea mays chloroplast DNA were determined by using total RNA isolated from maize chloroplasts and 32P-labelled rDNA restriction fragments of these regions for nuclease S1 and primer extension mapping. Several processing sites detectable by both 3' and 5' terminally labelled probes could be identified and correlated to the secondary structure for the 23S/4.5S intergenic region. The complete 4.5S/5S intergenic region can be reverse transcribed and a common processing site for maturation of 4.5S and 5S rRNA close to the 3' end of 4.5S rRNA was detected. It is therefore concluded that 23S, 4.5S and 5S rRNA are cotranscribed.  相似文献
