J Mol Biol 2023; 435:168321. [PMID: 37865285 DOI: 10.1016/j.jmb.2023.168321] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/25/2023] [Revised: 10/16/2023] [Accepted: 10/16/2023] [Indexed: 10/23/2023]
Abstract
Ribosomal proteins have important roles in maintaining the structure and function of mature ribosomes, but they also drive crucial rearrangement reactions during ribosome biogenesis. The contribution of most, but not all, ribosomal proteins to ribosome synthesis has been previously analyzed in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Herein, we characterize the role of yeast eL15 during 60S ribosomal subunit formation. In vivo depletion of eL15 results in a shortage of 60S subunits and the appearance of half-mer polysomes. This is likely due to defective processing of the 27SA3 to the 27SBS pre-rRNA and impaired subsequent processing of both forms of 27SB pre-rRNAs to mature 25S and 5.8S rRNAs. Indeed, eL15 depletion leads to the efficient turnover of the de novo formed 27S pre-rRNAs. Additionally, depletion of eL15 blocks nucleocytoplasmic export of pre-60S particles. Moreover, we have analyzed the impact of depleting either eL15 or eL36 on the composition of early pre-60S particles, thereby revealing that the depletion of eL15 or eL36 not only affects each other's assembly into pre-60S particles but also that of neighboring ribosomal proteins, including eL8. These intermediates also lack most ribosome assembly factors required for 27SA3 and 27SB pre-rRNA processing, named A3- and B-factors, respectively. Importantly, our results recapitulate previous ones obtained upon eL8 depletion. We conclude that assembly of eL15, together with that of eL8 and eL36, is a prerequisite to shape domain I of 5.8S/25S rRNA within early pre-60S particles, through their binding to this rRNA domain and the recruitment of specific groups of assembly factors.

Changes in a Protein Profile Can Account for the Altered Phenotype of the Yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae Mutant Lacking the Copper-Zinc Superoxide Dismutase. Metabolites 2023; 13:metabo13030459. [PMID: 36984899 PMCID: PMC10056615 DOI: 10.3390/metabo13030459] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2023] [Revised: 03/14/2023] [Accepted: 03/20/2023] [Indexed: 03/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Copper-zinc superoxide dismutase (SOD1) is an antioxidant enzyme that catalyzes the disproportionation of superoxide anion to hydrogen peroxide and molecular oxygen (dioxygen). The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae lacking SOD1 (Δsod1) is hypersensitive to the superoxide anion and displays a number of oxidative stress-related alterations in its phenotype. We compared proteomes of the wild-type strain and the Δsod1 mutant employing two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and detected eighteen spots representing differentially expressed proteins, of which fourteen were downregulated and four upregulated. Mass spectrometry-based identification enabled the division of these proteins into functional classes related to carbon metabolism, amino acid and protein biosynthesis, nucleotide biosynthesis, and metabolism, as well as antioxidant processes. Detailed analysis of the proteomic data made it possible to account for several important morphological, biochemical, and physiological changes earlier observed for the SOD1 mutation. An example may be the proposed additional explanation for methionine auxotrophy. It is concluded that protein comparative profiling of the Δsod1 yeast may serve as an efficient tool in the elucidation of the mutation-based systemic alterations in the resultant S. cerevisiae phenotype.

Abstract
Owing to their morphological complexity and dense network connections, neurons modify their proteomes locally, using mRNAs and ribosomes present in the neuropil (tissue enriched for dendrites and axons). Although ribosome biogenesis largely takes place in the nucleus and perinuclear region, neuronal ribosomal protein (RP) mRNAs have been frequently detected remotely, in dendrites and axons. Here, using imaging and ribosome profiling, we directly detected the RP mRNAs and their translation in the neuropil. Combining brief metabolic labeling with mass spectrometry, we found that a group of RPs rapidly associated with translating ribosomes in the cytoplasm and that this incorporation was independent of canonical ribosome biogenesis. Moreover, the incorporation probability of some RPs was regulated by location (neurites vs. cell bodies) and changes in the cellular environment (following oxidative stress). Our results suggest new mechanisms for the local activation, repair and/or specialization of the translational machinery within neuronal processes, potentially allowing neuronal synapses a rapid means to regulate local protein synthesis.

Molecular study of binding of Plasmodium ribosomal protein P2 to erythrocytes. Biochimie 2020; 176:181-191.

Abstract
The ribosomal protein P2 of Plasmodium falciparum, (PfP2), performs certain unique extra-ribosomal functions. During the few hours of cell-division, PfP2 protein moves to the external surface of the infected erythrocytes (IE) as an SDS-resistant oligomer, and at that stage treatment with specific anti- PfP2 antibodies results in an arrest of the parasite cell-division. Amongst the oligomeric forms of PfP2, mainly the homo-tetramer is peripherally anchored on the external surface of the IE. To study the anchoring of PfP2 tetramer on IE-surface, we have explored the binding properties of PfP2 protein. Using NMR and erythrocyte pull-down studies, here we report that the homo-tetrameric PfP2 protein interacted specifically with erythrocytes and not leukocytes. The hydrophobic N-terminal 72 amino acid region is the major interacting domain. The binding of P2 to RBCs was neuraminidase resistant, but trypsin sensitive. The RBC binding was exclusive to the Plasmodium PfP2 protein as even the homologous protein of the closely related Apicomplexan parasite Toxoplasma gondii TgP2 protein did not interact with erythrocytes. Pull down assays, immunoprecipitation and mass spectrometry data showed that erythrocytic Band 3 protein is a possible interactor of Plasmodium PfP2 protein on the erythrocyte surface.

Abstract
As obligate intracellular parasites, virus reproduction requires host cell functions. Despite variations in genome size and configuration, nucleic acid composition, and their repertoire of encoded functions, all viruses remain unconditionally dependent on the protein synthesis machinery resident within their cellular hosts to translate viral messenger RNAs (mRNAs). A complex signaling network responsive to physiological stress, including infection, regulates host translation factors and ribosome availability. Furthermore, access to the translation apparatus is patrolled by powerful host immune defenses programmed to restrict viral invaders. Here, we review the tactics and mechanisms used by viruses to appropriate control over host ribosomes, subvert host defenses, and dominate the infected cell translational landscape. These not only define aspects of infection biology paramount for virus reproduction, but continue to drive fundamental discoveries into how cellular protein synthesis is controlled in health and disease.

Abstract
The proteome of cells is synthesized by ribosomes, complex ribonucleoproteins that in eukaryotes contain 79-80 proteins and four ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) more than 5,400 nucleotides long. How these molecules assemble together and how their assembly is regulated in concert with the growth and proliferation of cells remain important unanswered questions. Here, we review recently emerging principles to understand how eukaryotic ribosomal proteins drive ribosome assembly in vivo. Most ribosomal proteins assemble with rRNA cotranscriptionally; their association with nascent particles is strengthened as assembly proceeds. Each subunit is assembled hierarchically by sequential stabilization of their subdomains. The active sites of both subunits are constructed last, perhaps to prevent premature engagement of immature ribosomes with active subunits. Late-assembly intermediates undergo quality-control checks for proper function. Mutations in ribosomal proteins that affect mostly late steps lead to ribosomopathies, diseases that include a spectrum of cell type-specific disorders that often transition from hypoproliferative to hyperproliferative growth.
