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.

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.

Abstract
Introduction of reporter groups at designed RNA sites is a widely accepted approach to gain information about the molecular environment of RNAs in their complexes with other biopolymers formed during various cellular processes. A general approach to obtain RNAs bearing diverse reporter groups at designed locations is based on site-specific insertion of groups containing primary aliphatic amine functions (amino linkers) with their subsequent selective derivatization by appropriate chemicals. This article is a brief review on methods for site-specific introduction of amino linkers in different RNAs. These methods comprise: (i) incorporation of a nucleoside carrying an amino-linker or a function that can be substituted with it into oligoribonucleotides in the course of their chemical synthesis; (ii) assembly of amino linker-containing RNAs from short synthetic fragments via their ligation; (iii) synthesis of amino linker-modified RNAs using T7 RNA polymerase; (iv) insertion of amino linkers into unmodified RNAs at functional groups of a certain type such as the 5'-phosphates and N7 of guanosine residues and (v) introduction of an amino linker into long highly structured RNAs exploiting an approach based on sequence-specific modification of nucleic acids. Particular reporter groups used for derivatization of amino linker-containing RNAs together with types of RNA derivatives obtained and fields of their application are presented.

Abstract
This review covers data on the structural organization of functional sites in the human ribosome, namely, the messenger RNA binding center, the binding site of the hepatitis C virus RNA internal ribosome entry site, and the peptidyl transferase center. The data summarized here have been obtained primarily by means of a site-directed cross-linking approach with application of the analogs of the respective ribosomal ligands bearing cross-linkers at the designed positions. These data are discussed taking into consideration available structural data on ribosomes from various kingdoms obtained with the use of cryo-electron microscopy, X-ray crystallography, and other approaches.

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
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
The majority of constitutive proteins in the bacterial 30S ribosomal subunit have orthologues in Eukarya and Archaea. The eukaryotic counterparts for the remainder (S6, S16, S18 and S20) have not been identified. We assumed that amino acid residues in the ribosomal proteins that contact rRNA are to be constrained in evolution and that the most highly conserved of them are those residues that are involved in forming the secondary protein structure. We aligned the sequences of the bacterial ribosomal proteins from the S20p, S18p and S16p families, which make multiple contacts with rRNA in the Thermus thermophilus 30S ribosomal subunit (in contrast to the S6p family), with the sequences of the unassigned eukaryotic small ribosomal subunit protein families. This made it possible to reveal that the conserved structural motifs of S20p, S18p and S16p that contact rRNA in the bacterial ribosome are present in the ribosomal proteins S25e, S26e and S27Ae, respectively. We suggest that ribosomal protein families S20p, S18p and S16p are homologous to the families S25e, S26e and S27Ae, respectively.

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
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.

Abstract
This study is directed towards an important problem concerning the organization of the peptidyl transferase center (PTC) on the mammalian ribosome that cannot be studied by X-ray analysis since crystals of 80S ribosomes are still unavailable. Here, we investigated the arrangement of the 3'-end of tRNA in the 80S ribosomal A and P sites using a tRNA(Asp) analogue that bears a 4-thiouridine (s(4)U) attached to the 3'-terminal adenosine. It was shown that an additional nucleotide s(4)U77 on the 3'-end does not impede codon-dependent binding of the tRNA to the A and P sites of 80S ribosome. Mild UV-irradiation of the ribosomal complexes containing a short appropriately designed mRNA and the tRNA analogue resulted in cross-linking of the analogue exclusively to 28S rRNA. The cross-linking site was detected in the 4302-4540 fragment of the 28S rRNA which belongs to the highly conserved domain V that in prokaryotic ribosomes is involved in the formation of the PTC. Nucleotides cross-linked to the tRNA analogue were determined by means of reverse transcription. A comparison of the results obtained with a dynamic model of mutual arrangement of s(4)U77 of the A site tRNA and nucleotides of 23S rRNA built on the basis of an atomic model for the prokaryotic PTC led to the conclusion that environments of the tRNA 3'-terminus in prokaryotic and eukaryotic ribosomes share a significant extent of similarity, although pronounced differences are also detectable.

Abstract
The environment of tRNA 3'-terminus in the 80S ribosomal A and P sites was studied with a tRNA(Asp) analogue that bears a 4-thiouridine residue (s4U) attached to the 3'-terminal adenosine. The tRNA(Asp) analogue was obtained by in vitro T7 transcription followed by crosslinking with [32P]ps4Up and removal of the 3'-terminal phosphate. It was shown that the presence of the additional nucleotide at the 3'-end does not to hinder the codon-dependent binding of the tRNA to the A and P sites of 80S ribosome. Mild UV-irradiation of the ribosomal complexes containing a short appropriately designed mRNA and the tRNA analogue resulted in crosslinking of the analogue exclusively to 28S rRNA. The crosslinking was completely dependent on the presence of s4U in the tRNA analogue. Using hydrolysis of the crosslinked 28S rRNA with RNase H in the presence of deoxyoligomers complementary to various rRNA sequences, we determined that the crosslinking occurred in fragment 4302-4540 of the 28S rRNA. This fragment is evolutionarily conservative and belongs to domain V that is involved in the formation of the peptidyl transferase site in prokaryotic ribosomes. The use of reverse transcription allowed the determination of the tRNA analogue crosslinking in the P site to nucleotides U4461 and U4502, and the analogue in the A site, to nucleotides U4469 and C4507. In addition, nucleotide C4462 was crosslinked to both P site and A site-bound tRNA analogue. An analysis of the results demonstrates that environments of the tRNA 3'-termini are closely similar in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic ribosomes.

Abstract
The protein environment of mRNA 3' of the A-site codon (the decoding site) in the human 80S ribosome was studied using a set of oligoribonucleotide derivatives bearing a UUU triplet at the 5'-end and a perfluoroarylazide group at one of the nucleotide residues at the 3'-end of this triplet. Analogues of mRNA were phased into the ribosome using binding at the tRNAPhe P-site, which recognizes the UUU codon. Mild UV irradiation of ribosome complexes with tRNAPhe and mRNA analogues resulted in the predominant crosslinking of the analogues with the 40S subunit components, mainly with proteins and, to a lesser extent, with rRNA. Among the 40S subunit ribosomal proteins, the S3 protein was the main target for modification in all cases. In addition, minor crosslinking with the S2 protein was observed. The crosslinking with the S3 and S2 proteins occurred both in triple complexes and in the absence of tRNA. Within triple complexes, crosslinking with S15 protein was also found, its efficiency considerably falling when the modified nucleotide was moved from positions +5 to +12 relative to the first codon nucleotide in the P-site. In some cases, crosslinking with the S30 protein was observed, it was most efficient for the derivative containing a photoreactive group at the +7 adenosine residue. The results indicate that the S3 protein in the human ribosome plays a key role in the formation of the mRNA binding site 3' of the codon in the decoding site.

Abstract
The molecular environment of the internal ribosome entry site (IRES) element of hepatitis C viral (HCV) RNA in the binary complex with the human 40S ribosomal subunit was studied. To this end, RNA derivatives bearing mild UV-reactive perfluorophenylazide groups at nucleotide G87 in IRES domain II and at nucleotide A296 in the subdomain IIIe loop were used, which were prepared by the RNA complementarily-addressed modification with alkylating oligonucleotide derivatives. None of the RNA derivatives were shown to be crosslinked to the 18S rRNA of the 40S subunit. It was found that the photoreactive group of IRES nucleotide A296 was crosslinked to the 40S subunit S2/S3a, S5, and p40 (SOA) proteins. No protein crosslinking was observed for the RNA derivative containing the same photoreactive group in nucleotide G87. It was concluded that the subdomain IIIe loop of the HCV RNA IRES element in the complex with the 40S subunit is located on the outer subunit surface between the head and the body next to the "beak" near the entrance into the mRNA-binding channel.

Abstract
Binding of the internal ribosome entry site (IRES) of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA to the eIF-free 40S ribosomal subunit is the first step of initiation of translation of the viral RNA. Hairpins IIId and IIIe comprising 253-302 nt of the IRES are known to be essential for binding to the 40S subunit. Here we have examined the molecular environment of the HCV IRES in its binary complex with the human 40S ribosomal subunit. For this purpose, two RNA derivatives were used that bore a photoactivatable perfluorophenyl azide cross-linker. In one derivative the cross-linker was at the nucleotide A296 in hairpin IIIe, and in the other at G87 in domain II. Site-specific introduction of the cross-linker was performed using alkylating derivatives of oligodeoxyribonucleotides complementary to the target RNA sequences. No cross-links with the rRNA were detected with either RNA derivative. The RNA with the photoactivatable group at A296 cross-linked to proteins identified as S5 and S16 (major) and p40 and S3a (minor), while no cross-links with proteins were detected with RNA modified at G87. The results obtained indicate that hairpin IIIe is located on the solvent side of the 40S subunit head on a site opposite the beak.

Abstract
The 18S rRNA nucleotides close to the 80S ribosome template nucleotide adjacent to the A-site codon on the 3-end (i.e., the nucleotide in position +7 relative to the first nucleotide of the P-site codon) were identified using template-controlled chemical affinity ligation. For this purpose, used the photoreactive mRNA analogues with a perfluorophenylazido group attached through various linkers to the uridine C5,3'-terminal phosphate, or guanosine N7 were used. The position of the mRNA analogues on the ribosome was preset using tRNAPhe, which recognized the phenylalanine codon directed to the P-site. An analysis of the rRNAs isolated from the irradiated complexes of 80S ribosomes showed that all the analogues are almost equally ligated to the 18S rRNA nucleotides we attributed to the A-site codon environment: namely, to nucleotides A1823, A1824, and A1825 of the 3'-minidomain and to the 620-630 fragment of the 18S rRNA 5'-domain. In addition, we identified a new component of the mRNA binding site of human ribosomes, nucleotide C1698 belonging to the 18S rRNA 3-minidomain, using analogues bearing a perfluorophenylazido group on uridine and guanine residues.

Abstract
Messenger RNA analogues (42-mers) containing a GAC codon (aspartic acid) in the middle of their sequence followed by a s(4)UGA stop codon were used to identify the components of the human ribosomal A site in direct contact with the photoactivatable 4-thiouridine (s(4)U) residue. We compared the behavior of the nonphased ribosome-mRNA complex, (-)tRNA(Asp), to the one of the phased complex, (+)tRNA(Asp), in the absence and in the presence of eRF1, the eukaryotic class 1 translation termination factor of human origin. The patterns of cross-links obtained for the three complexes were similar to those previously reported for rabbit ribosomes [Chavatte, L., et al. (2001) Eur. J. Biochem. 268, 2896-2904]. Cross-links involving proteins S2, S3, S3a, and S30 were poorly dependent on the presence of tRNA(Asp) and eRF1. Cross-linking to nucleotide C1696 of 18S rRNA occurred in all complexes, but its yield was at least two times higher in the phased complex with an empty A site than in the nonphased complex or when the A site was occupied by eRF1. In contrast, protein S15 cross-linked only in the phased complex in the absence of eRF1. The data obtained point to notable differences in organization of the decoding site between mammalian and prokaryotic ribosomes and to large internal mobility of the components of the tRNA (eRF1)-free A site.

Abstract
Positioning of each nucleotide of the E site and the P site bound codons with respect to the 18S rRNA on the human ribosome was studied by cross-linking with mRNA analogs, derivatives of the hexaribonucleotide UUUGUU (comprising Phe and Val codons) that carried a perfluorophenylazide group on the second or the third uracil, and a derivative of the dodecaribonucleotide UUAGUAUUUAUU with a similar group on the guanine residue. The location of the modified nucleotides at any mRNA position from -3 to +3 (position +1 corresponds to the 5' nucleotide of the P site bound codon) was adjusted by the cognate tRNAs. A modified uridine at positions from -1 to +3 cross-linked to nucleotide G1207 of the 18S rRNA, and to nucleotide G961 when it was in position -2. A modified guanosine cross-linked to nucleotide G1207 if it was in position -3 of the mRNA. These data indicate that nucleotide G961 of the 18S rRNA is close only to mRNA positions -3 and -2, while G1207 is in the vicinity of positions from -3 to +3. The latter suggests that there is a sharp turn between the P and E site bound codons that brings nucleotide G1207 of the 18S rRNA close to each nucleotide of these codons. This correlates well with X-ray crystallographic data on bacterial ribosomes, indicating existence of a sharp turn between the P site and E site bound codons near a conserved nucleotide G926 of the 16S rRNA (corresponding to G1207 in 18S rRNA) close to helix 23b containing the conserved nucleotide 693 of the 16S rRNA (corresponding exactly to G961 of the 18S rRNA).

Abstract
It has been shown previously [Brown, C.M. & Tate, W.P. (1994) J. Biol. Chem. 269, 33164-33170.] that the polypeptide chain release factor RF2 involved in translation termination in prokaryotes was able to photocrossreact with mini-messenger RNAs containing stop signals in which U was replaced by 4-thiouridine (s4U). Here, using the same strategy we have monitored photocrosslinking to eukaryotic ribosomal components of 14-mer mRNA in the presence of tRNA(f)(Met), and 42-mer mRNA in the presence of tRNA(Asp) (tRNA(Asp) gene transcript). We show that: (a) both 14-mer and 42-mer mRNAs crossreact with ribosomal RNA and ribosomal proteins. The patterns of the crosslinked ribosomal proteins are similar with both mRNAs and sensitive to ionic conditions; (b) the crosslinking patterns obtained with 42-mer mRNAs show characteristic modification upon addition of tRNA(Asp) providing evidence for appropriate mRNA phasing onto the ribosome. Similar changes are not detected with the 14-mer mRNA.tRNA(f)(Met) pairs; (c) when eukaryotic polypeptide chain release factor 1 (eRF1) is added to the ribosome.tRNA(Asp) complex it crossreacts with the 42-mer mRNA containing the s(4)UGA stop codon located in the A site, but not with the s(4)UCA sense codon; this crosslink involves the N-terminal and middle domains of eRF1 but not the C domain which interacts with eukaryotic polypeptide chain release factor 3 (eRF3); (d) addition of eRF3 has no effect on the yield of eRF1-42-mer mRNA crosslinking and eRF3 does not crossreact with 42-mer mRNA. These experiments delineate the in vitro conditions allowing optimal phasing of mRNA on the eukaryotic ribosome and demonstrate a direct and specific contact of 'core' eRF1 and s(4)UGA stop codon within the ribosomal A site.

Abstract
During protein synthesis the ribosome interacts with ligands such as mRNA, tRNA and translation factors. We have studied the effect of ribosome-ligand interaction on the accessibility of 18S rRNA for single strand-specific modification in ribosomal complexes that have been assembled in vivo, i. e. native polysomes. A comparison of the modification patterns derived from programmed and non-programmed ribosomes showed that bases in the 630- and 1060-loops (530- and 790-loops in E. coli) together with two nucleotides in helices 33 and 34 were protected from chemical modification. The majority of the protected sites were homologous to sites previously suggested to be involved in mRNA and/or tRNA binding in prokaryotes and eukaryotes, implying that the interaction sites for these ligands are similar, if not identical, in naturally occurring programmed ribosomes and in in vitro assembled ribosomal complexes. Additional differences between programmed and non-programmed ribosomes were found in hairpin 8. The bases in helix 8 showed increased exposure to chemical modification in the programmed ribosomes. In addition, structural differences in helices 36 and 37 were observed between native 80S run-off ribosomes and 80S ribosomes assembled from isolated 40S and 60S subunits.

Abstract
The transcription factor CHOP (GADD153) heterodimerizes with other C/EBP family members, especially C/EBPbeta, thus preventing their homodimerization and binding to DNA sequences specific for the homodimers. Some CHOP-C/EBP heterodimers apparently bind to alternative DNA sequence and thereby regulate the transcription of other genes. Recently, we demonstrated that CHOP is up-regulated during certain stages of erythroid differentiation and that ectopic overexpression of CHOP enhances this process (Coutts, M., Cui, K., Davis, K. L., Keutzer, J. C., and Sytkowski, A. J. (1999) Blood 93, 3369-3378). In the present study, we report that CHOP also interacts with another non-C/EBP protein designated v-fos transformation effector (FTE) (Kho, C. J., and Zarbl, H. (1992) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 89, 2200-2204), which is identical to ribosomal protein S3a (Metspalu, A., Rebane, A., Hoth, S., Pooga, M., Stahl, J. , and Kruppa, J. (1992) Gene (Amst.) 119, 313-316). Bacterially expressed His-CHOP and in vitro translated (35)S-labeled FTE/S3a-Gal4 fusion protein co-immunoprecipitated using anti-CHOP antibodies, and both anti-CHOP and anti-FTE/S3a antibodies co-immunoprecipitated CHOP and FTE/S3a from lysates of Rauscher murine erythroleukemia cells overexpressing both proteins. The in vivo interaction of CHOP and FTE/S3a was also demonstrated in cells overexpressing FTE/S3a but with endogenous expression levels of CHOP. Western blot analysis demonstrated co-localization of CHOP and FTE/S3a in both the cytosol and the nuclei of non-transfected cells. Overexpression of FTE/S3a inhibited differentiation of Rauscher cells induced either by erythropoietin or by dimethyl sulfoxide. This inhibition was reversed partially by simultaneous overexpression of CHOP or of antisense fte/S3a. FTE/S3a appears to be a bifunctional ribosomal protein that regulates CHOP and, hence, C/EBP function during erythropoiesis.

Abstract
One condition for using a gene as a transcriptional marker for environmental stress is its specific and differential expression. In order to be used as such a marker, the ribosomal protein S26 cDNA from pea (Pisum sativum L.) was cloned and fully sequenced. The gene (PsRPS26) was shown to be differentially regulated by ozone and UV-B radiation in opposite ways. Ozone gave rise to increased mRNA levels, whereas UV-B led to a decrease in S26 transcript abundance. Thus, the expression of PsRPS26 can be used as a molecular marker to differentiate between these two environmental stresses.

Abstract
The nucleotide sequence of the gene of human ribosomal protein S26 has been assembled from cDNA and genomic PCR-amplified DNA fragments, and its transcription start site has been determined by primer extension. The gene is composed of four exons and three introns spanning 2027bp. Like other ribosomal protein genes of vertebrates, this gene contains a short first exon corresponding exactly to the short untranslated 5'- UTR. Its transcription start site is embedded in a polypyrimidine tract. Using PCR on DNAs from hybrid cell lines with a different set of human chromosomes, the intron-containing gene of ribosomal protein S26 was mapped to human chromosome 12.

Abstract
mRNA analogs, 4-(N-2-chloroethyl-N-methylamino)benzylmethyl-[5'-32P]-phosphamide derivatives of oligoribonucleotides pAUGUn (n=0, 3 or 6), were used for affinity labelling of human 80S ribosomes in complexes with codon-anticodon interaction at the P-site. These complexes were obtained in the presence of fractionated lysate from rabbit reticulocytes deprived of endogenous ribosomes and mRNAs. In all cases, 40S subunits were labelled preferentially. Within the subunits, both ribosomal proteins and 18S rRNA were modified. Ribosomal proteins cross-linked to pAUGUn derivatives were identified earlier. In this paper, nucleotides G-1010, G-1029, G-1033, G-1051, G-1054 and G-1059 of 18S rRNA cross-linked to both pAUG and pAUGU3 derivatives were identified by reverse transcription analysis.

Labeling of 80S ribosomes with the derivatives of oligouridylates was carried out in complexes obtained nonenzymatically in the presence of saturating amounts of Phe-tRNA(Phe). Complexes with derivatives bearing AUG codon were obtained using a fractionated lysate from rabbit reticulocytes which contained protein translation factors and was deprived from endogeneous ribosomes and mRNAs. In all cases, 40S subunits were labeled preferentially. Within the subunits, both 18S rRNA and proteins were found to be modified. Sites of cross-linking in 18S rRNA have been identified earlier. Here, it is shown that the main targets of cross-linking among the ribosomal proteins were S3 and S3a (with minor modification of S26) for the 3'-derivatives of (Up)5UpC and (Up)11UpC. For the same derivative of (Up)2UpC, the reverse modification pattern was observed. 5'-derivatives of pAUGUn were cross-linked to proteins S3 and S3a in comparable extent; 3'-derivative of AUGU3pC modified protein S3a preferentially.

Abstract
Region 980-1061 in human 18S rRNA has been chosen on the basis of our previous results, indicating that cross-linking sites of the alkylating mRNA analogs are located within this region. In the present study, we have used 10 DNA 15-mers complementary to various overlapping sequences within the 18S rRNA positions 980-1061. Their abilities to bind selectively to the target rRNA sequences were proved by hydrolysis of 18S rRNA within heteroduplexes with the corresponding probes by RNase H. Four sequences (980-994, 987-1001, 1025-1039 and 1032-1046) were found to be well accessible for binding of the respective cDNA probes within 40S subunits. None of the oligomers inhibited tRNA(Phe)-dependent binding of oligo(U) messenger to 40S subunits and binding of Met-tRNA(imet) to 40S subunits in the presence of eIF-2 and nonhydrolysable GTP analog. Nevertheless, two probes (complementary to the 18S rRNA sequences 987-1001 and 1025-1039) being covalently attached to 40S subunits, inhibited translation of poly(U) by human 80S ribosomes in a cell-free system. The same oligomers revealed the most pronounced inhibitory action on the binding of messenger trinucleotide in the complex pAUG.40S.Met-tRNA(imet).eIF-2.GTP. Results of these functional assays demonstrate the importance of the 18S rRNA sequences 987-1001 and 1025-1039 for translation process on human ribosomes, most probably at the initiation step.
