Co-translational protein targeting by the signal recognition particle.
The signal recognition particle (SRP) mediates the co-translational targeting of nascent proteins to the eukaryotic endoplasmic reticulum membrane, or the bacterial plasma membrane. During this process, two GTPases, one in the SRP and one in the SRP receptor (SR), form a complex in which both proteins reciprocally activate the GTPase reaction of one another. The recent crystal structures of the...
متن کاملMolecular mechanism of co-translational protein targeting by the signal recognition particle.
The signal recognition particle (SRP) is a key component of the cellular machinery that couples the ongoing synthesis of proteins to their proper localization, and has often served as a paradigm for understanding the molecular basis of protein localization within the cell. The SRP pathway exemplifies several key molecular events required for protein targeting to cellular membranes: the specific...
متن کاملCo-translational protein targeting catalyzed by the Escherichia coli signal recognition particle and its receptor.
The Ffh-4.5S ribonucleoprotein particle (RNP) and FtsY from Escherichia coli are homologous to essential components of the mammalian signal recognition particle (SRP) and SRP receptor, respectively. The ability of these E. coli components to function in a bona fide co-translational targeting pathway remains unclear. Here we demonstrate that the Ffh-4.5S RNP and FtsY can efficiently replace thei...
متن کاملSignal recognition particle mediates post-translational targeting in eukaryotes.
Signal recognition particle (SRP) plays a central role in the delivery of classical secretory and membrane proteins to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). All nascent chains studied to date dissociate from SRP once released from the ribosome, thereby supporting a strictly cotranslational mode of action for eukaryotic SRP. We now report a novel post-translational function for SRP in the targeting of...
متن کاملSignal sequence recognition and targeting of ribosomes to the endoplasmic reticulum by the signal recognition particle do not require GTP.
The identification of GTP-binding sites in the 54-kDa subunit of the signal recognition particle (SRP) and in both the alpha and beta subunits of the SRP receptor has complicated the task of defining the step in the protein translocation reaction that is controlled by the GTP-binding site in the SRP. Ribonucleotide binding assays show that the purified SRP can bind GDP or GTP. However, crosslin...
