Chaperone-like activity and surface hydrophobicity of 70S ribosome.
Ribosomes have been shown to mediate refolding of proteins in vitro. In order to understand the mechanism of action, we have explored the 70S ribosome surface for hydrophobicity, one of the important aspects in chaperone-target protein interaction. We find that the 70S ribosome displays significant hydrophobicity on its surface when probed with the hydrophobic fluorophore 8-anilino-1-naphthalen...
متن کاملSignificance of α-crystallin heteropolymer with a 3:1 αA/αB ratio: chaperone-like activity, structure and hydrophobicity
The small heat-shock protein α-crystallin isolated from the eye lens exists as a large (700 kDa) heteropolymer composed of two subunits, αA and αB, of 20 kDa each. Although trace amounts of αA-crystallin are found in other tissues, non-lenticular distribution of α-crystallin is dominated by the αB homopolymer. In most vertebrate lens, the molar ratio of αA to αB is generally 3:1. However, the i...
متن کاملRelationship Between Cell Surface Hydrophobicity and Degradation of Hexadecane
Some properties of compounds in degrading bacteria are required for biodegradation of contaminants to higher performance. Those strains which have a high percentage of these features are more effective at biodegradation. The present experiments were designed to measure these parameters. In this study, measurement of cell surface hydrophobic-degrading bacteria was designed which oil was separate...
متن کاملComplementary roles of initiation factor 1 and ribosome recycling factor in 70S ribosome splitting.
We demonstrate that ribosomes containing a messenger RNA (mRNA) with a strong Shine-Dalgarno sequence are rapidly split into subunits by initiation factors 1 (IF1) and 3 (IF3), but slowly split by ribosome recycling factor (RRF) and elongation factor G (EF-G). Post-termination-like (PTL) ribosomes containing mRNA and a P-site-bound deacylated transfer RNA (tRNA) are split very rapidly by RRF an...
متن کاملStructure of the 70S ribosome complexed with mRNA and tRNA.
The crystal structure of the bacterial 70S ribosome refined to 2.8 angstrom resolution reveals atomic details of its interactions with messenger RNA (mRNA) and transfer RNA (tRNA). A metal ion stabilizes a kink in the mRNA that demarcates the boundary between A and P sites, which is potentially important to prevent slippage of mRNA. Metal ions also stabilize the intersubunit interface. The inte...
