Abstract
Certain viral RNAs encode proteins downstream of the main protein coding region, expressed through "termination-reinitiation" events, dependent on RNA structure. RNA elements located upstream of the first stop codon within these viral mRNAs bind the ribosome, preventing ribosome recycling and inducing reinitiation. We used bioinformatic methods to identify new examples of viral reinitiation-stimulating RNAs and experimentally verified their secondary structure and function. We determined the structure of a representative viral RNA-ribosome complex using cryoEM. 3D classification and variability analyses reveal that the viral RNA structure can sample a range of conformations while remaining tethered to the ribosome, which enabling the ribosome to find a reinitiation start site within a limited range of mRNA sequence. Evaluating the conserved features and constraints of this entire RNA class in the context of the cryoEM reconstruction provides insight into mechanisms enabling reinitiation, a translation regulation strategy employed by many other viral and eukaryotic systems.

Abstract
The human protein uS3, a component of the small ribosomal subunit, has a long-known extra-ribosomal activity as an enzyme of base excision DNA repair displayed in its ability to cleave DNA at abasic (AP) sites. It has been found that the efficacy of DNA cleavage by uS3 in vitro depends on the DNA sequence. To clarify the issue on the sequence specificity of uS3 as an AP lyase in general, we applied a combinatorial approach based on the use of a model single-stranded circular DNA with an AP site flanked with random trinucleotides at both sides. The cleavage of this DNA by uS3 under conditions when only its minor portion undergoes the reaction resulted in the formation of the linear DNA with random triplets at the 5' and 3' termini. NGS sequencing of the DNA library derived from this DNA allowed identifying the contexts within which uS3 cleaves DNA the most and the least effectively. Given that the AP lyase reaction occurs via the formation of a covalent intermediate (Schiff base), we determined the region comprising the active center of the uS3 protein. By digesting of uS3 cross-linked to a radiolabeled AP site-containing model DNA with specific proteolytic agents followed by analysis of the resulting modified oligopeptides, the cross-link was mapped to the region 155-192 (likely, to R173/R178). Thus, our results clarified two previously unstudied features of the uS3 AP lyase activity, one related to the recognition of sequences in DNA surrounding the AP site, and the other to the protein region directly contacting this site.

The flexible N-terminal motif of uL11 unique to eukaryotic ribosomes interacts with P-complex and facilitates protein translation. Nucleic Acids Res 2022; 50:5335-5348.

Abstract
Eukaryotic uL11 contains a conserved MPPKFDP motif at the N-terminus that is not found in archaeal and bacterial homologs. Here, we determined the solution structure of human uL11 by NMR spectroscopy and characterized its backbone dynamics by 15N-1H relaxation experiments. We showed that these N-terminal residues are unstructured and flexible. Structural comparison with ribosome-bound uL11 suggests that the linker region between the N-terminal domain and C-terminal domain of human uL11 is intrinsically disordered and only becomes structured when bound to the ribosomes. Mutagenesis studies show that the N-terminal conserved MPPKFDP motif is involved in interacting with the P-complex and its extended protuberant domain of uL10 in vitro. Truncation of the MPPKFDP motif also reduced the poly-phenylalanine synthesis in both hybrid ribosome and yeast mutagenesis studies. In addition, G→A/P substitutions to the conserved GPLG motif of helix-1 reduced poly-phenylalanine synthesis to 9-32% in yeast ribosomes. We propose that the flexible N-terminal residues of uL11, which could extend up to ∼25 Å from the N-terminal domain of uL11, can form transient interactions with the uL10 that help to fetch and fix it into a position ready for recruiting the incoming translation factors and facilitate protein synthesis.

Abstract
Ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) hydrolyze the N-glycosidic bond and depurinate a specific adenine residue (A-4324 in rat 28S ribosomal RNA, rRNA) in the conserved α-sarcin/ricin loop (α-SRL) of rRNA. In this study, we have purified and characterized lyophyllin, an unconventional RIP from Lyophyllum shimeji, an edible mushroom. The protein resembles peptidase M35 domain of peptidyl-Lys metalloendopeptidases. Nevertheless, protein either from the mushroom or in recombinant form possessed N-glycosidase and protein synthesis inhibitory activities. A homology model of lyophyllin was constructed. It was found that the zinc binding pocket of this protein resembles the catalytic cleft of a classical RIP, with key amino acids that interact with the adenine substrate in the appropriate positions. Mutational studies showed that E122 may play a role in stabilizing the positively charged oxocarbenium ion and H121 for protonating N-3 of adenine. The tyrosine residues Y137 and Y104 may be used for stacking the target adenine ring. This work first shows a protein in the peptidase M35 superfamily based on conserved domain search possessing N-glycosidase activity.

Abstract
DEER reveals the conformational variability of mRNA at the certain translation steps. Elongation and termination complexes exist in 2 conformations in dynamic equilibrium. The conformations of mRNA in 40S channel undergo no major change during termination.
The conformation of mRNA in the region of the human 80S ribosome decoding site was monitored using 11-mer mRNA analogues that bore nitroxide spin labels attached to the terminal nucleotide bases. Intramolecular spin–spin distances were measured by DEER/PELDOR spectroscopy in model complexes mimicking different states of the 80S ribosome during elongation and termination of translation. The measurements revealed that in all studied complexes, mRNA exists in two alternative conformations, whose ratios are different in post-translocation, pre-translocation and termination complexes. We found that the presence of a tRNA molecule at the ribosomal A site decreases the relative share of the more extended mRNA conformation, whereas the binding of eRF1 (alone or in a complex with eRF3) results in the opposite effect. In the termination complexes, the ratios of mRNA conformations are practically the same, indicating that a part of mRNA bound in the ribosome channel does not undergo significant structural alterations in the course of completion of the translation. Our results contribute to the understanding of mRNA molecular dynamics in the mammalian ribosome channel during translation.

Abstract
Abasic (AP) sites in mRNAs are lesions whose accumulation in cells is linked to various neurodegenerative diseases arising from the appearance of truncated peptides due to the premature cessation of translation of these mRNAs. It is believed that the translation of AP site-containing mRNAs is stopped when the damaged codon arrives to the A site, where it is not decoded. We propose an alternative translation arrest mechanism mediated by the 40S ribosomal subunit protein uS3. Recently, it has been shown that in human 80S ribosomal complexes assembled without translation factors, uS3 cross-links to the AP site at the 3'-terminus of the mRNA, whose undamaged part is bound at the 40S subunit channel, via its peptide 55-64 exposed near the mRNA entry pore. In this study, we examined whether such cross-linking occurs during the translation of mRNA with the AP site. To this end, we used a set of synthetic mRNAs bearing the AP site inserted in the desired location in their sequences. An analysis of 80S ribosomal complexes formed with these mRNAs in a mammalian cell-free protein-synthesizing system demonstrates that AP sites do indeed cross-link to uS3 in the course of the translation. We also show that the cross-linking occurs as soon as the AP site arrives to a common favorable position relative to uS3, which is independent on its location in the mRNA. Our findings suggest that the mechanism of stopping translation of damaged mRNAs involving uS3, along with the one mentioned above, could underlie ribosome-associated mRNA quality control.

Abstract
Ribosomal protein S6 (RPS6) is the only phosphorylatable protein of the eukaryotic 40S ribosomal subunit. Ribosomes with phosphorylated RPS6 can selectively translate 5'TOP-(5'-terminal oligopyrimidine)-containing mRNAs that encode most proteins of the translation apparatus. The study of translational control of 5'TOP-mRNAs, which are preferentially translated when RPS6 is phosphorylated and cease to be translated when RPS6 is de-phosphorylated, is particularly important. In Arabidopsis thaliana, AtRPS6 is phosphorylated by kinase AtRPS6K2, which should in turn be phosphorylated by upper level kinases (AtPDK1 - at serine (S) 296, AtTOR - at threonine (T) 455 and S437) for full activation. We have cloned AtRPS6K2 cDNA gene and carried out in vitro mutagenesis replacing codons encoding S296, S437 and T455 by triplets of phosphomimetic glutamic acid (E). After the expression of both natural and mutated cDNAs in Escherichia coli cells, two recombinant proteins were isolated: native AtRPS6K2 and presumably constitutively active AtRPS6K2(S296E, S437E, T455E). The activity of these variants was tested in vitro. Both kinases could phosphorylate wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) TaRPS6 as part of 40S ribosomal subunits isolated from wheat embryos, though the non-mutated variant had less activity than phosphomimetic one. The ability of recombinant non-mutated kinase to phosphorylate TaRPS6 can be explained by its phosphorylation by bacterial kinases during the expression and isolation steps. The phosphomimetically mutated AtRPS6K2(S296E, S437E, T455E) can serve as a tool to investigate preferential translation of 5'TOP-mRNAs in wheat germ cell-free system, in which most of 40S ribosomal subunits have phosphorylated TaRPS6. Besides, such an approach has a biotechnological application in producing genetically modified plants with increased biomass and productivity through stimulation of cell growth and division.

Abstract
The features of previously unexplored labile complexes of human 40S ribosomal subunits with RNAs, whose formation is manifested in the cross-linking of aldehyde derivatives of RNAs to the ribosomal protein uS3 through its peptide 55–64 located outside the mRNA channel, were studied by EPR spectroscopy methods. Analysis of subatomic 40S subunit models showed that a likely site for labile RNA binding is a cluster of positively charged amino acid residues between the mRNA entry site and uS3 peptide 55–64. This is consistent with our finding that the 3′-terminal mRNA fragment hanging outside the 40S subunit prevents the cross-linking of an RNA derivative to this peptide. To detect labile complexes of 40S subunits with RNA by DEER/PELDOR spectroscopy, an undecaribonucleotide derivative with nitroxide spin labels at terminal nucleotides was utilized. We demonstrated that the 40S subunit channel occupancy with mRNA does not affect the RNA derivative binding and that uS3 peptide 55–64 is not involved in binding interactions. Replacing the RNA derivative with a DNA one revealed the importance of ribose 2′-OH groups for the complex formation. Using the single-label RNA derivatives, the distance between the mRNA entry site and the loosely bound RNA site on the 40S subunit was estimated.

Abstract
In eukaryotic ribosomes, the conserved protein uS19, formerly known as S15, extends with its C-terminal tail to the decoding site. The cross-linking of uS19 to the A site codon has been detected using synthetic mRNAs bearing 4-thiouridine (s4U) residues. Here, we showed that the A-site tRNA prevents this cross-linking and that the P site codon does not contact uS19. Next, we focused on determining uS19-mRNA interactions in vivo by applying the photoactivatable-ribonucleoside enhancing cross-linking and immunoprecipitation method to a stable HEK293 cell line producing FLAG-tagged uS19 and grown in a medium containing s4U. We found that when translation was stopped by cycloheximide, uS19 was efficiently cross-linked to mRNA regions with a high frequency of Glu, Lys and, more rarely, Arg codons. The results indicate that the complexes, in which the A site codon is not involved in the formation of the mRNA-tRNA duplex, are present among the cycloheximide-arrested 80S complexes, which implies pausing of elongating ribosomes at the above mRNA regions. Thus, our findings demonstrate that the human ribosomal protein uS19 interacts with mRNAs during translation elongation and highlight the regions of mRNAs where ribosome pausing occurs, bringing new structural and functional insights into eukaryotic translation in vivo.

Abstract
The lateral stalk of ribosomes constitutes the GTPase-associated center and is responsible for recruiting translation factors to the ribosomes. The eukaryotic stalk contains a P-complex, in which one molecule of uL10 (formerly known as P0) protein binds two copies of P1/P2 heterodimers. Unlike bacterial uL10, eukaryotic uL10 has an extended protuberant (uL10ext) domain inserted into the N-terminal RNA-binding domain. Here, we determined the solution structure of the extended protuberant domain of Bombyx mori uL10 by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Comparison of the structures of the B. mori uL10ext domain with eRF1-bound and eEF2-bound ribosomes revealed significant structural rearrangement in a "hinge" region surrounding Phe183, a residue conserved in eukaryotic but not in archaeal uL10. 15N relaxation analyses showed that residues in the hinge region have significantly large values of transverse relaxation rates. To test the role of the conserved phenylalanine residue, we created a yeast mutant strain expressing an F181A variant of uL10. An in vitro translation assay showed that the alanine substitution increased the level of polyphenylalanine synthesis by ∼33%. Taken together, our results suggest that the hinge motion of the uL10ext domain facilitates the binding of different translation factors to the GTPase-associated center during protein synthesis.

Abstract
The model mRNA (MR), 11-mer RNA containing two nitroxide spin labels at the 5′- and 3′-terminal nucleotides and prone to form a stable homodimer (MR)2, was used for Electron Paramagnetic Resonance study of structural rearrangements in mRNA occurring upon its binding to human 80S ribosomes. The formation of two different types of ribosomal complexes with MR was observed. First, there were stable complexes where MR was fixed in the ribosomal mRNA-binding channel by the codon-anticodon interaction(s) with cognate tRNA(s). Second, we for the first time detected complexes assembled without tRNA due to the binding of MR most likely to an exposed peptide of ribosomal protein uS3 away from the mRNA channel. The analysis of interspin distances allowed the conclusion that 80S ribosomes facilitate dissociation of the duplex (MR)2: the equilibrium between the duplex and the single-stranded MR shifts to MR due to its efficient binding with ribosomes. Furthermore, we observed a significant influence of tRNA bound at the ribosomal exit (E) and/or aminoacyl (A) sites on the stability of ribosomal complexes. Our findings showed that a part of mRNA bound in the ribosome channel, which is not involved in codon-anticodon interactions, has more degrees of freedom than that interacting with tRNAs.

Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a nexus for mRNA localization and translation, and recent studies have demonstrated that ER-bound ribosomes also play a transcriptome-wide role in regulating proteome composition. The Sec61 translocon (SEC61) serves as the receptor for ribosomes that translate secretory/integral membrane protein-encoding mRNAs, but whether SEC61 also serves as a translation site for cytosolic protein-encoding mRNAs remains unknown. Here, using a BioID proximity-labeling approach in HEK293T Flp-In cell lines, we examined interactions between ER-resident proteins and ribosomes in vivo Using in vitro analyses, we further focused on bona fide ribosome interactors (i.e. SEC61) and ER proteins (ribophorin I, leucine-rich repeat-containing 59 (LRRC59), and SEC62) previously implicated in associating with ribosomes. We observed labeling of ER-bound ribosomes with the SEC61β and LRRC59 BioID reporters, comparatively modest labeling with the ribophorin I reporter, and no labeling with the SEC62 reporter. A biotin pulse-chase/subcellular fractionation approach to examine ribosome exchange at the SEC61β and LRRC59 sites revealed that, at steady state, ribosomes at these sites comprise both rapid- and slow-exchanging pools. Global translational initiation arrest elicited by the inhibitor harringtonine accelerated SEC61β reporter-labeled ribosome exchange. RNA-Seq analyses of the mRNAs associated with SEC61β- and LRRC59-labeled ribosomes revealed both site-enriched and shared mRNAs and further established that the ER has a transcriptome-wide role in regulating proteome composition. These results provide evidence that ribosomes interact with the ER membrane via multiple modes and suggest regulatory mechanisms that control global proteome composition via ER membrane-bound ribosomes.

Abstract
The small subunit ribosomal protein uS3 is a critically important player in the ribosome-mRNA interactions during translation and has numerous functions not directly related to protein synthesis in eukaryotes. A peculiar feature of the human uS3 protein is the ability of its fragment 55-64 exposed on the 40S subunit surface near the mRNA entry channel to form cross-links with 3'-terminal dialdehyde derivatives of various unstructured RNAs and with abasic sites in single-stranded DNAs. Here we showed that the ability of the above uS3 fragment to cross-link to abasic sites in DNAs is inherent only in mature cytoplasmic 40S subunits, but not nuclear pre-40S particles, which implies that it may be relevant to the ribosome-mRNA interplay. To clarify this issue, we investigated interactions of human ribosomes with synthetic mRNA analogues bearing an abasic site protected by a photocleavable group at the 3'-termini. We found that these mRNA analogues can form specific complexes with 80S ribosomes and 40S subunits, where the undamaged upstream part of the analogue is fixed in the mRNA binding channel by interaction with the P-site tRNA, and the downstream part located outside the ribosome is cross-linked to the uS3 fragment 55-64. The yield of cross-links of the mRNA analogues was rather high when their undamaged parts were bound to the mRNA channel prior to deprotection of the abasic site enabling its covalent attachment to the 40S subunit via the uS3 protein, but not vice versa. Based on our findings, one can assume that abasic sites, which can occur in mRNAs due to oxidative stress and ageing, are able to interact directly with the uS3 fragment exposed on the 40S subunit surface near the mRNA entry channel during translation. Consequently, the 40S subunit can be considered as a potential mRNA quality controller.

Abstract
Human ribosomal protein eS26 is an indispensable component of the small (40S) ribosomal subunit and, along with other ribosomal proteins, is involved in interaction with mRNAs during translation. Here, we explored the behavior of the exogenous ribosomal protein eS26 modified at the C-terminus in the events related to translation in human cells using a doxycycline-inducible HEK293-derived cell line enabling the stable production of C-terminal FLAG-tagged eS26 (eS26FLAG). The production of eS26FLAG in cells was accompanied by a decrease in the endogenous eS26 content although its mRNA level did not change. Exogenous eS26FLAG was able to replace endogenous eS26 in 40S ribosomal subunits, without affecting the assembly and translational activity of 80S ribosomes. However, eS26FLAG-containing ribosome fractions from the respective polysome profile displayed a reduced content of nucleophosmin, a multifunctional protein, which, as is known, is involved in the formation and nuclear export of ribosomal subunits. In general, our data showed that although the appearance of the FLAG tag at the C-terminus of eS26 does not affect translation, it interferes with nucleophosmin incorporation into the 40S subunit, pointing out the importance of the C-terminus integrity of eS26 for nucleophosmin binding. In addition, with the recombinant protein, we demonstrated the binding of nucleophosmin to both isolated eS26 and 40S subunits in the presence of HeLa nuclear extract that phosphorylated the recombinant nucleophosmin. These findings suggest that for nuclear export, nucleophosmin could directly bind to pre-40S subunits in the mRNA exit site region where the C-terminus of eS26 is located.

Arrangements of nucleotides flanking the start codon in the IRES of the hepatitis C virus in the IRES binary complex with the human 40S ribosomal subunit. Biochimie 2018; 148:72-79.

Abstract
Genomic RNA of hepatitis C virus (HCV) has an internal ribosome entry site (IRES), a specific highly structured fragment responsible for its non-canonical translation initiation. The HCV IRES contains a major part of the 5'-untranslated region of the viral RNA and a small portion of the open reading frame (ORF). At the first step of initiation, IRES directly binds to 40S ribosomal subunits so that the AUG start codon appears at the P site region without scanning and without involving initiation factors. However, it is still not entirely clear whether the IRES ORF is correctly loaded into the 40S ribosomal mRNA binding channel in the resulting binary complex. To address this issue, we applied site-directed cross-linking using HCV IRES derivatives bearing a perfluorophenyl azide cross-linker at nucleotides in definite positions relative to the adenine of the AUG start codon. We found that the modifier at the IRES position -3 cross-links to ribosomal proteins uS11 and eS26. These proteins have been identified together with uS7 as those interacting with the mRNA nucleotide in position -3 relative to the first nucleotide of the codon directed to the P site by a cognate tRNA. Thus, our results indicate a certain difference in the locations of the above parts of HCV IRES and canonical mRNAs on 40S subunits. The modifier at the IRES positions +4/5 was attached to uS19, which is specific for ribosomal complexes with the P site tRNA and similar derivatives of model canonical mRNAs when the modifier is in the same positions. However, the cross-linking efficiency of the IRES derivative was drastically lower than that previously observed with derivatives of model mRNAs. This implies that the IRES ORF portion is correctly loaded into the mRNA binding channel only in a tiny fraction of the binary complexes.

Abstract
N-terminal acetylation is among the most abundant protein modifications in eukaryotic cells. Over the last decade, significant progress has been made in elucidating the function of N-terminal acetylation for a number of diverse systems, involved in a wide variety of biological processes. The enzymes responsible for the modification are the N-terminal acetyltransferases (NATs). The NATs are a highly conserved group of enzymes in eukaryotes, which are responsible for acetylating over 80% of the soluble proteome in human cells. Importantly, many of these NATs act co-translationally; they interact with the ribosome near the exit tunnel and acetylate the nascent protein chain as it is being translated. While the structures of many of the NATs have been determined, the molecular basis for the interaction with ribosome is not known. Here, using purified ribosomes and NatA, a very well-studied NAT, we show that NatA forms a stable complex with the ribosome in the absence of other stabilizing factors and through two conserved regions; primarily through an N-terminal domain and an internal basic helix. These regions may orient the active site of the NatA to face the peptide emerging from the exit tunnel. This work provides a framework for understanding how NatA and potentially other NATs interact with the ribosome for co-translational protein acetylation and sets the foundation for future studies to decouple N-terminal acetyltransferase activity from ribosome association.

Abstract
Here we employed site-directed cross-linking with the application of tRNA and mRNA analogues bearing an oxidized ribose at the 3'-terminus to investigate mutual arrangement of the main components of translation termination complexes formed on the human 80S ribosome bound with P site deacylated tRNA using eRF1•eRF3•GTP or eRF1 alone. In addition, we applied a model complex obtained in the same way with eRF1•eRF3•GMPPNP. We found that eRF3 content in the complexes with GTP and GMPPNP is similar, proving that eRF3 does not leave the ribosome after GTP hydrolysis. Our cross-linking data allowed determining locations of the 3'-terminus of the P site tRNA relatively the eRF1 M domain and of the mRNA stop signal toward the N domain and the ribosomal decoding site at the nucleotide-peptide resolution level. Our results indicate that locations of these components do not change after peptide release up to post-termination pre-recycling state, and the positioning of the mRNA stop signal remains similar to that when eRF1 recognizes it. Besides, we found that in all the complexes studied eRF1 shielded the N-terminal part of ribosomal protein eS30 from the interaction with the nucleotide adjacent to stop codon observed with pre-termination ribosome free of eRFs. Altogether, our findings brought important information on contacts of the key structural elements of eRF1, tRNA and mRNA in the ribosomal complexes including those mimicking different translation termination steps, thereby providing a deeper understanding of molecular mechanisms underlying events occurring in the course of protein synthesis termination in mammals.

Abstract
Isolated human ribosomal protein uS3 has extra-ribosomal functions including those related to base excision DNA repair, e.g. AP lyase activity that nicks double-stranded (ds) DNA 3΄ to the abasic (AP) site. However, the ability of uS3 residing within ribosome to recognize and cleave damaged DNA has never been addressed. Here, we compare interactions of single-stranded (ss) DNA and dsDNA bearing AP site with human ribosome-bound uS3 and with the isolated protein, whose interactions with ssDNA were not yet studied. The AP lyase activity of free uS3 was much higher with ssDNA than with dsDNA, whereas ribosome-bound uS3 was completely deprived of this activity. Nevertheless, an exposed peptide of ribosome-bound uS3 located far away from the putative catalytic center previously suggested for isolated uS3 cross-linked to full-length uncleaved ssDNA, but not to dsDNA. In contrast, free uS3 cross-linked mainly to the 5΄-part of the damaged DNA strand after its cleavage at the AP site. ChIP-seq analysis showed preferential uS3 binding to nucleolus-associated chromatin domains. We conclude that free and ribosome-bound uS3 proteins interact with AP sites differently, exhibiting their non-translational functions in DNA repair in and around the nucleolus and in regulation of DNA damage response in looped DNA structures, respectively.

Abstract
Translation termination in eukaryotes is mediated by release factors: eRF1, which is responsible for stop codon recognition and peptidyl-tRNA hydrolysis, and GTPase eRF3, which stimulates peptide release. Here, we have utilized ribose-specific probes to investigate accessibility of rRNA backbone in complexes formed by association of mRNA- and tRNA-bound human ribosomes with eRF1•eRF3•GMPPNP, eRF1•eRF3•GTP, or eRF1 alone as compared with complexes where the A site is vacant or occupied by tRNA. Our data show which rRNA ribose moieties are protected from attack by the probes in the complexes with release factors and reveal the rRNA regions increasing their accessibility to the probes after the factors bind. These regions in 28S rRNA are helices 43 and 44 in the GTPase associated center, the apical loop of helix 71, and helices 89, 92, and 94 as well as 18S rRNA helices 18 and 34. Additionally, the obtained data suggest that eRF3 neither interacts with the rRNA ribose-phosphate backbone nor dissociates from the complex after GTP hydrolysis. Taken together, our findings provide new information on architecture of the eRF1 binding site on mammalian ribosome at various translation termination steps and on conformational rearrangements induced by binding of the release factors.

Abstract
mRNAs are involved in complicated supramolecular complexes with human 40S and 80S ribosomes responsible for the protein synthesis. In this work, a derivative of nonaribonucleotide pUUCGUAAAA with nitroxide spin labels attached to the 5'-phosphate and to the C8 atom of the adenosine in sixth position (mRNA analog) was used for studying such complexes using double electron-electron resonance/pulsed electron-electron double resonance spectroscopy. The complexes were assembled with participation of tRNA(Phe), which targeted triplet UUC of the derivative to the ribosomal peptidyl site and predetermined location of the adjacent GUA triplet coding for Val at the aminoacyl (A) site. The interspin distances were measured between the two labels of mRNA analog attached to the first nucleotide of the peptidyl site bound codon and to the third nucleotide of the A site bound codon, in the absence/presence of second tRNA bound at the A site. The values of the obtained interspin distances agree with those calculated for available near-atomic structures of similar complexes of 40S and 80S ribosomes, showing that neither 60S subunit nor tRNA at the A site have a noticeable effect on arrangement of mRNA at the codon-anticodon interaction area. In addition, the shapes of distance distributions in four studied ribosomal complexes allowed conclusions on conformational flexibility of mRNA in these complexes. Overall, the results of this study are the first, to our knowledge, demonstration of double electron-electron resonance/pulsed electron-electron double resonance application for measurements of intramolecular distances in multicomponent supramolecular complexes involving intricate cellular machineries and for evaluating dynamic properties of ligands bound to these machineries.

Abstract
In this work, intimate contacts of riboses of mRNA stretch from nucleotides in positions +3 to +12 with respect to the first nucleotide of the P site codon were studied using cross-linking of short mRNA analogs with oxidized 3'-terminal riboses bound to human ribosomes in the complexes stabilized by codon-anticodon interactions and in the binary complexes. It was shown that in all types of complexes cross-links of the mRNA analogs to ribosomal protein (rp) uS3 occur and the yield of these cross-links does not depend on the presence of tRNA and on sequences of the mRNA analogs. Site of the mRNA analogs cross-linking in rp uS3 was mapped to the peptide in positions 55-64 that is located away from the mRNA binding site. Additionally, in complexes with P site-bound tRNA, riboses of mRNA nucleotides in positions +4 to +7 cross-linked to the C-terminal tail of rp uS19 displaying a contact specific to the decoding site of the mammalian ribosome, and tRNA bound at the A site completely blocked this cross-linking. Remarkably, rps uS3 and uS19 were also able to cross-link to the fragment of HCV IRES containing unstructured 3'-terminal part restricted by the AUGC tetraplet with oxidized 3'-terminal ribose. However, no cross-linking to rp uS3 was observed in the 48S preinitiation complex assembled in reticulocyte lysate with this HCV IRES derivative. The results obtained show an ability of rp uS3 to interact with single-stranded RNAs. Possible roles of rp uS3 region 55-64 in the functioning of ribosomes are discussed.

Hydroxylated histidine of human ribosomal protein uL2 is involved in maintaining the local structure of 28S rRNA in the ribosomal peptidyl transferase center. FEBS J 2015; 282:1554-66.

Abstract
Protein uL2 is essential for the catalytic activity of the ribosome and has a conserved shape in ribosomes from all domains of life. However, the sequence of its unstructured C-terminal loop apex that contacts the conserved 23S/28S rRNA helix (H) 93 near the ribosomal peptidyl transferase center differs in bacteria, archaea and eukaryotes. Eukaryote-specific residue His216 located in this loop in mammalian uL2 is hydroxylated in ribosomes. We used a set of chemical probes to explore the structure of an RNA that mimicked a segment of 28S rRNA domain V containing part of the uL2 binding site including H93, complexed with either natural (hydroxylated) or recombinant (unmodified) human uL2. It was found that both protein forms engage H93 during binding, but only natural uL2 (uL2n) protects it from hydroxyl radicals. The association of uL2n with RNA leads to changes in its structure at U4532 adjacent to the universally conserved U4531 (U2585, Escherichia coli numbering) involved in peptidyl transferase center formation, and at the universally conserved C4447 (2501) located in the ribosome near A4397 (2451) and C3909 (2063) belonging to the peptidyl transferase center. As a result, both nucleotides become strongly exposed to hydroxyl radicals. Our data argue that the hydroxyl group at His216 in the C-terminal loop apex of mammalian uL2 contributes to stabilization of a protein conformation that is favorable for binding to H93 of 28S rRNA and that this binding induces structural rearrangement in the regions close to the peptidyl transferase center in the mature ribosome.

Abstract
Association of ribosomal proteins with rRNA during assembly of ribosomal subunits is an intricate process, which is strictly regulated in vivo. As for the assembly in vitro, it was reported so far only for prokaryotic subunits. Bacterial ribosomal proteins are capable of selective binding to 16S rRNA as well as to its separate morphological domains. In this work, we explored binding of total protein of human 40S ribosomal subunit to the RNA transcript corresponding to the major 3'-domain of 18S rRNA. We showed that the resulting ribonucleoprotein particles contained almost all of the expected ribosomal proteins, whose binding sites are located in this 18S rRNA domain in the 40S subunit, together with several nonspecific proteins. The binding in solution was accompanied with aggregation of the RNA-protein complexes. Ribosomal proteins bound to the RNA transcript protected from chemical modification mostly those 18S rRNA nucleotides that are known to be involved in binding with the proteins in the 40S subunit and thereby demonstrated their ability to selectively bind to the rRNA in vitro. The possible implication of unstructured extensions of eukaryotic ribosomal proteins in their nonspecific binding with rRNA and in subsequent aggregation of the resulting complexes is discussed.

Abstract
Initiation of translation of genomic RNA (gRNA) of hepatitis C virus (HCV) is provided by a highly structured fragment in its 5'-untranslated region, the so-called Internal Ribosome Entry Site (IRES). In this work, the exposed NH2-groups of proteins in the 40S subunit of the human ribosome and in its binary complexes with RNA transcripts corresponding to the full-size HCV IRES or its fragments were probed using the N-hydroxysuccinimide derivative of the fluorescent dye Cy3. Comparison of efficiencies of modification of ribosomal proteins in free subunits and in their binary complexes with the RNA transcripts revealed ribosomal proteins involved in the HCV IRES binding. It was found that binding of the 40S subunits with the RNA transcript corresponding to full-size HCV IRES results in a decrease in modification levels of ribosomal protein (rp) S27 and, to a lesser extent of rpS10; also, a noticeable decrease in the efficiency of labeling of proteins RACK1/S2/S3a was observed. When a fragment of HCV IRES containing the initial part of the open reading frame (ORF) of the viral gRNA was deleted, the level of rpS10 modification became the same as in free subunits, whereas the levels of modification of rpS27 and the RACK1/S2/S3a group remained virtually unchanged compared to those observed in the complex of 40S subunit with the full-size HCV IRES. Binding of 40S subunits to a fragment of the HCV IRES lacking an ORF and domain II increased the modification level of the RACK1/S2/S3a proteins, while the efficiencies of labeling of rpS10 and rpS27 remained the same as upon the deletion of the ORF fragment. Comparison of these results with known structural and biochemical data on the organization of 40S subunit and the location of the HCV IRES on it revealed structural elements of the IRES contacting exposed lysine residues of the above-mentioned ribosomal proteins. Thus, it was found that the majority of exposed lysine residues of rpS27 are involved in the binding of the HCV IRES region formed by the junction of subdomains IIIa, IIIb, and IIIc with the central stalk of domain III, and that several lysine residues of rpS10 participate in the binding of the HCV IRES region corresponding to the initial part of the ORF of the viral gRNA. In addition, we concluded that lysine residues of rpS3a are involved in the binding of domains II and III of HCV IRES.

Abstract
We have demonstrated previously that the E-site specific protein RPL36AL present in human ribosomes can be crosslinked with the CCA-end of a P-tRNA in situ. Here we report the following: (i) We modeled RPL36AL into the structure of the archaeal ortholog RPL44E extracted from the known X-ray structure of the 50S subunit of Haloarcula marismortui. Superimposing the obtained RPL36AL structure with that of P/E tRNA observed in eukaryotic 80S ribosomes suggested that RPL36AL might in addition to its CCA neighbourhood interact with the inner site of the tRNA elbow similar to an interaction pattern known from tRNA•synthetase pairs. (ii) Accordingly, we detected that the isolated recombinant protein RPL36AL can form a tight binary complex with deacylated tRNA, and even tRNA fragments truncated at their CCA end showed a high affinity in the nanomolar range supporting a strong interaction outside the CCA end. (iii) We constructed programmed 80S complexes containing the termination factor eRF1 (stop codon UAA at the A-site) and a 2’,3’-dialdehyde tRNA (tRNAox) analog at the P-site. Surprisingly, we observed a crosslinked ternary complex containing the tRNA, eRF1 and RPL36AL crosslinked both to the aldehyde groups of tRNAox at the 2’- and 3’-positions of the ultimate A. We also demonstrated that, upon binding to the ribosomal A-site, eRF1 induces an alternative conformation of the ribosome and/or the tRNA, leading to a novel crosslink of tRNAox to another large-subunit ribosomal protein (namely L37) rather than to RPL36AL, both ribosomal proteins being labeled in a mutually exclusive fashion. Since the human 80S ribosome in complex with P-site bound tRNAox and A-site bound eRF1 corresponds to the post-termination state of the ribosome, the results represent the first biochemical evidence for the positioning of the CCA-arm of the P-tRNA in close proximity to both RPL36AL and eRF1 at the end of the translation process.

Abstract
SBP2 is a pivotal protein component in selenoprotein synthesis. It binds the SECIS stem-loop in the 3' UTR of selenoprotein mRNA and interacts with both the specialized translation elongation factor and the ribosome at the 60S subunit. In this work, our goal was to identify the binding partners of SBP2 on the ribosome. Cross-linking experiments with bifunctional reagents demonstrated that the SBP2-binding site on the human ribosome is mainly formed by the 28S rRNA. Direct hydroxyl radical probing of the entire 28S rRNA revealed that SBP2 bound to 80S ribosomes or 60S subunits protects helix ES7L-E in expansion segment 7 of the 28S rRNA. Diepoxybutane cross-linking confirmed the interaction of SBP2 with helix ES7L-E. Additionally, binding of SBP2 to the ribosome led to increased reactivity toward chemical probes of a few bases in ES7L-E and in the universally conserved helix H89, indicative of conformational changes in the 28S rRNA in response to SBP2 binding. This study revealed for the first time that SBP2 makes direct contacts with a discrete region of the human 28S rRNA.

Abstract
Ribosomes are key macromolecular protein synthesis machineries in the cell. Human ribosomes have so far not been studied to atomic resolution because of their particularly complex structure as compared with other eukaryotic or prokaryotic ribosomes, and they are difficult to prepare to high homogeneity, which is a key requisite for high-resolution structural work. We established a purification protocol for human 80S ribosomes isolated from HeLa cells that allows obtaining large quantities of homogenous samples as characterized by biophysical methods using analytical ultracentrifugation and multiangle laser light scattering. Samples prepared under different conditions were characterized by direct single particle imaging using cryo electron microscopy, which helped optimizing the preparation protocol. From a small data set, a 3D reconstruction at subnanometric resolution was obtained showing all prominent structural features of the human ribosome, and revealing a salt concentration dependence of the presence of the exit site tRNA, which we show is critical for obtaining crystals. With these well-characterized samples first human 80S ribosome crystals were obtained from several crystallization conditions in capillaries and sitting drops, which diffract to 26 Å resolution at cryo temperatures and for which the crystallographic parameters were determined, paving the way for future high-resolution work.

Abstract
A key step of translation initiation in eukaryotes is formation of the 48S preinitiation complex (PIC) containing the 40S ribosome, a set of eukaryotic initiation factors (eIFs), mRNA, and initiator Met-tRNA interacting with mRNA start codon; however, the PIC structure remains substantially unknown. Here, we apply formaldehyde-induced protein-protein crosslinks to identify contacts between ribosomal protein S5e (rpS5e, "e" stands for "eukaryotic") and eIFs within the mammalian PIC, assembled on either model canonical or IRES-containing mRNA. Using immunoblotting and mass spectrometry, we show that with both types of mRNA, rpS5e crosslinks to eIF2α. Comparative analysis of peptides resulting from trypsinolysis of the crosslinked proteins before and after crosslink reversal reveals crosslinked peptides in the N-terminal parts of rpS5e and eIF2α. Application of these data to a model PIC structure obtained with the use of available structures indicates that eIF2α undergoes major conformation rearrangements to enable contacts of the factor with rpS5e. These contacts are suggested to maintain the correct positioning of eIF2α relative to other PIC components; this could be essential for start-codon selection by the PIC.

Abstract
The central nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) regulator, Upf1, selectively targets nonsense-containing mRNAs for rapid degradation. In yeast, Upf1 preferentially associates with mRNAs that are NMD substrates, but the mechanism of its selective retention on these mRNAs has yet to be elucidated. Previously, we demonstrated that Upf1 associates with 40S ribosomal subunits. Here, we define more precisely the nature of this association using conventional and affinity-based purification of ribosomal subunits, and a two-hybrid screen to identify Upf1-interacting ribosomal proteins. Upf1 coimmunoprecipitates specifically with epitope-tagged 40S ribosomal subunits, and Upf1 association with high-salt washed or puromycin-released 40S subunits was found to occur without simultaneous eRF1, eRF3, Upf2, or Upf3 association. Two-hybrid analyses and in vitro binding assays identified a specific interaction between Upf1 and Rps26. Using mutations in domains of UPF1 known to be crucial for its function, we found that Upf1:40S association is modulated by ATP, and Upf1:Rps26 interaction is dependent on the N-terminal Upf1 CH domain. The specific association of Upf1 with the 40S subunit is consistent with the notion that this RNA helicase not only triggers rapid decay of nonsense-containing mRNAs, but may also have an important role in dissociation of the premature termination complex.

Abstract
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.

Abstract
Nucleotides of 28S rRNA involved in binding of the human 80S ribosome with acceptor ends of the A site and the P site tRNAs were determined using two complementary approaches, namely, cross-linking with application of tRNA(Asp) analogues substituted with 4-thiouridine in position 75 or 76 and hydroxyl radical footprinting with the use of the full sized tRNA and the tRNA deprived of the 3'-terminal trinucleotide CCA. In general, these 28S rRNA nucleotides are located in ribosomal regions homologous to the A, P and E sites of the prokaryotic 50S subunit. However, none of the approaches used discovered interactions of the apex of the large rRNA helix 80 with the acceptor end of the P site tRNA typical with prokaryotic ribosomes. Application of the results obtained to available atomic models of 50S and 60S subunits led us to a conclusion that the A site tRNA is actually present in both A/A and A/P states and the P site tRNA in the P/P and P/E states. Thus, the present study gives a biochemical confirmation of the data on the structure and dynamics of the mammalian ribosomal pretranslocation complex obtained with application of cryo-electron microscopy and single-molecule FRET [Budkevich et al., 2011]. Moreover, in our study, particular sets of 28S rRNA nucleotides involved in oscillations of tRNAs CCA-termini between their alternative locations in the mammalian 80S ribosome are revealed.

Abstract
The roles of 2'-OH groups in the binding of mRNA to human ribosomes were studied using site-directed cross-linking. We found that both mRNA and mDNA analogues bearing a cross-linker can modify ribosomal proteins (rps) S3e and S2e at the mRNA entry site independently on tRNA presence, but only mRNA analogues were capable of a tRNA(Phe)-dependent binding to human ribosomes and cross-linking to rpS26e in the mRNA binding centre. Thus, 2'-OH groups of mRNA are unimportant for binding at the entry site but they are crucial for codon-anticodon interactions at the P site, implying the existence of mRNA-ribosome contacts that do not occur in bacteria.

Abstract
The eukaryotic ribosomal protein S26e (rpS26e) lacking eubacterial counterparts is a key component of the ribosomal binding site of mRNA region 5′ of the codon positioned at the exit site. Here, we determined the rpS26e oligopeptide neighboring mRNA on the human 80S ribosome using mRNA analogues bearing perfluorophenyl azide-derivatized nucleotides at designed locations. The protein was cross-linked to mRNA analogues in specific ribosomal complexes, in which the derivatized nucleotide was located at positions −3 to −9. Digestion of cross-linked rpS26e with various specific proteolytic agents followed by identification of the resulting modified oligopeptides made it possible to map the cross-links to fragment 60–71. This fragment contains the motif YxxPKxYxK conserved in eukaryotic but not in archaeal rpS26e. Analysis of X-ray structure of the Tetrahymena thermophila 40S subunit showed that this motif is not implicated in the intraribosomal interactions, implying its involvement in translation process in a eukaryote-specific manner. Comparison of the results obtained with data on positioning of ribosomal ligands on the 40S subunit lead us to suggest that this motif is involved in interaction with both the 5′-untranslated region of mRNA and the initiation factor eIF3 specific for eukaryotes, providing new insights into molecular mechanisms of translation in eukaryotes.

Abstract
Positioning of release factor eRF1 toward adenines and the ribose-phosphate backbone of the UAAA stop signal in the ribosomal decoding site was studied using messenger RNA (mRNA) analogs containing stop signal UAA/UAAA and a photoactivatable cross-linker at definite locations. The human eRF1 peptides cross-linked to these analogs were identified. Cross-linkers on the adenines at the 2nd, 3rd or 4th position modified eRF1 near the conserved YxCxxxF loop (positions 125–131 in the N domain), but cross-linker at the 4th position mainly modified the tripeptide 26-AAR-28. This tripeptide cross-linked also with derivatized 3′-phosphate of UAA, while the same cross-linker at the 3′-phosphate of UAAA modified both the 26–28 and 67–73 fragments. A comparison of the results with those obtained earlier with mRNA analogs bearing a similar cross-linker at the guanines indicates that positioning of eRF1 toward adenines and guanines of stop signals in the 80S termination complex is different. Molecular modeling of eRF1 in the 80S termination complex showed that eRF1 fragments neighboring guanines and adenines of stop signals are compatible with different N domain conformations of eRF1. These conformations vary by positioning of stop signal purines toward the universally conserved dipeptide 31-GT-32, which neighbors guanines but is oriented more distantly from adenines.

Abstract
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.

Abstract
To study positioning of the polypeptide release factor eRF1 toward a stop signal in the ribosomal decoding site, we applied photoactivatable mRNA analogs, derivatives of oligoribonucleotides. The human eRF1 peptides cross-linked to these short mRNAs were identified. Cross-linkers on the guanines at the second, third, and fourth stop signal positions modified fragment 31-33, and to lesser extent amino acids within region 121-131 (the "YxCxxxF loop") in the N domain. Hence, both regions are involved in the recognition of the purines. A cross-linker at the first uridine of the stop codon modifies Val66 near the NIKS loop (positions 61-64), and this region is important for recognition of the first uridine of stop codons. Since the N domain distinct regions of eRF1 are involved in a stop-codon decoding, the eRF1 decoding site is discontinuous and is not of "protein anticodon" type. By molecular modeling, the eRF1 molecule can be fitted to the A site proximal to the P-site-bound tRNA and to a stop codon in mRNA via a large conformational change to one of its three domains. In the simulated eRF1 conformation, the YxCxxxF motif and positions 31-33 are very close to a stop codon, which becomes also proximal to several parts of the C domain. Thus, in the A-site-bound state, the eRF1 conformation significantly differs from those in crystals and solution. The model suggested for eRF1 conformation in the ribosomal A site and cross-linking data are compatible.

Abstract
The binding of the 18S RNA of the 40S subunits of wheat germ ribosomes to an oligodeoxyribonucleotide complementary to the 1112-1123 region of the central domain of this RNA molecule has been studied. The selective binding of this oligomer to the complementary RNA fragment and the inhibition of the translation of uncapped chimeric RNA containing enhancer sequences in the 5'-untranslated region upstream of the reporter sequence coding for beta-glucuronidase has been shown in a cell-free protein-synthesizing system. The use of a derivative of the aforementioned oligomer containing an alkylating group at the 5' end allowed for the demonstration that the 1112-1123 region of 18S RNA can form a heteroduplex with the complementary sequence of the oligomer. The data obtained show that the 1112-1123 region in loop 27 of the central domain of 18S RNA of 40S ribosomal subunits is exposed on the subunit surface and probably participates in the cap-independent binding of the subunits to mRNA due to the complementary interaction with the enhancer sequences.

Abstract
The eukaryotic ribosomal protein S15 is a key component of the decoding site in contrast to its prokaryotic counterpart, S19p, which is located away from the mRNA binding track on the ribosome. Here, we determined the oligopeptide of S15 neighboring the A site mRNA codon on the human 80S ribosome with the use of mRNA analogues bearing perfluorophenyl azide-modified nucleotides in the sense or stop codon targeted to the 80S ribosomal A site. The protein was cross-linked to mRNA analogues in specific ribosomal complexes that were obtained in the presence of eRF1 in the experiments with mRNAs bearing stop codon. Digestion of modified S15 with various specific proteolytic agents followed by identification of the resulting modified oligopeptides showed that cross-link was in C-terminal fragment in positions 131-145, most probably, in decapeptide 131-PGIGATHSSR-140. The position of cross-linking site on the S15 protein did not depend on the nature of the A site-bound codon (sense or stop codon) and on the presence of polypeptide chain release factor eRF1 in the ribosomal complexes with mRNA analogues bearing a stop codon. The results indicate an involvement of the mentioned decapeptide in the formation of the ribosomal decoding site during elongation and termination of translation. Alignment of amino acid sequences of eukaryotic S15 and its prokaryotic counterpart, S19p from eubacteria and archaea, revealed that decapeptide PGIGATHSSR in positions 131-140 is strongly conserved in eukaryotes and has minor variations in archaea but has no homology with any sequence in C-terminal part of eubacterial S19p, which suggests involvement of the decapeptide in the translation process in a eukaryote-specific manner.

Abstract
Protein S3 fragments were determined that crosslink to modified mRNA analogues in positions +5 to +12 relative to the first nucleotide in the P-site binding codon in model complexes mimicking states of ribosomes at the elongation and translation termination steps. The mRNA analogues contained a Phe codon UUU/UUC at the 5'-termini that could predetermine the position of the tRNA(Phe) on the ribosome by the location of P-site binding and perfluorophenylazidobenzoyl group at a nucleotide in various positions 3' of the UUU/UUC codon. The crosslinked S3 protein was isolated from 80S ribosomal complexes irradiated with mild UV light and subjected to cyanogen bromide-induced cleavage at methionine residues with subsequent identification of the crosslinked oligopeptides. An analysis of the positions of modified oligopeptides resulting from the cleavage showed that, in dependence on the positions of modified nucleotides in the mRNA analogue, the crosslinking sites were found in the N-terminal half of the protein (fragment 2-127) and/or in the C-terminal fragment 190-236; the latter reflects a new peculiarity in the structure of the mRNA binding center in the ribosome, unknown to date. The results of crosslinking did not depend on the type of A-site codon or on the presence of translation termination factor eRF1.

Abstract
Selenoproteins contain the amino acid selenocysteine which is encoded by a UGA Sec codon. Recoding UGA Sec requires a complex mechanism, comprising the cis-acting SECIS RNA hairpin in the 3'UTR of selenoprotein mRNAs, and trans-acting factors. Among these, the SECIS Binding Protein 2 (SBP2) is central to the mechanism. SBP2 has been so far functionally characterized only in rats and humans. In this work, we report the characterization of the Drosophila melanogaster SBP2 (dSBP2). Despite its shorter length, it retained the same selenoprotein synthesis-promoting capabilities as the mammalian counterpart. However, a major difference resides in the SECIS recognition pattern: while human SBP2 (hSBP2) binds the distinct form 1 and 2 SECIS RNAs with similar affinities, dSBP2 exhibits high affinity toward form 2 only. In addition, we report the identification of a K (lysine)-rich domain in all SBP2s, essential for SECIS and 60S ribosomal subunit binding, differing from the well-characterized L7Ae RNA-binding domain. Swapping only five amino acids between dSBP2 and hSBP2 in the K-rich domain conferred reversed SECIS-binding properties to the proteins, thus unveiling an important sequence for form 1 binding.

Abstract
The 5′-untranslated region of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA contains a highly structured motif called IRES (Internal Ribosome Entry Site) responsible for the cap-independent initiation of the viral RNA translation. At first, the IRES binds to the 40S subunit without any initiation factors so that the initiation AUG codon falls into the P site. Here using an original site-directed cross-linking strategy, we identified 40S subunit components neighboring subdomain IIId, which is critical for HCV IRES binding to the subunit, and apical loop of domain II, which was suggested to contact the 40S subunit from data on cryo-electron microscopy of ribosomal complexes containing the HCV IRES. HCV IRES derivatives that bear a photoactivatable group at nucleotide A275 or at G263 in subdomain IIId cross-link to ribosomal proteins S3a, S14 and S16, and HCV IRES derivatized at the C83 in the apex of domain II cross-link to proteins S14 and S16.
