Conserved small mRNA with an unique, extended Shine-Dalgarno sequence
Up to now, very small protein-coding genes have remained unrecognized in sequenced genomes. We identified an mRNA of 165 nucleotides (nt), which is conserved in Bradyrhizobiaceae and encodes a polypeptide with 14 amino acid residues (aa). The small mRNA harboring a unique Shine-Dalgarno sequence (SD) with a length of 17 nt was localized predominantly in the ribosome-containing P100 fraction of ...
متن کاملMultiple elements required for translation of plastid atpB mRNA lacking the Shine-Dalgarno sequence.
The mechanism of translational initiation differs between prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Prokaryotic mRNAs generally contain within their 5'-untranslated region (5'-UTR) a Shine-Dalgarno (SD) sequence that serves as a ribosome-binding site. Chloroplasts possess prokaryotic-like translation machinery, and many chloroplast mRNAs have an SD-like sequence, but its position is variable. Tobacco chlorop...
متن کاملPredicting Shine–Dalgarno Sequence Locations Exposes Genome Annotation Errors
In prokaryotes, Shine-Dalgarno (SD) sequences, nucleotides upstream from start codons on messenger RNAs (mRNAs) that are complementary to ribosomal RNA (rRNA), facilitate the initiation of protein synthesis. The location of SD sequences relative to start codons and the stability of the hybridization between the mRNA and the rRNA correlate with the rate of synthesis. Thus, accurate characterizat...
متن کاملAn efficient Shine-Dalgarno sequence but not translation is necessary for lacZ mRNA stability in Escherichia coli.
The 5' ends of many bacterial transcripts are important in determining mRNA stability. A series of Shine-Dalgarno (SD) sequence changes showed that the complementarity of the SD sequence to the anti-SD sequence of 16S rRNA correlates with lacZ mRNA stability in Escherichia coli. Several initiation codon changes showed that an efficient initiation codon is not necessary to maintain lacZ mRNA sta...
متن کاملSelection of Shine-Dalgarno sequences in plastids
Like bacterial genes, most plastid (chloroplast) genes are arranged in operons and transcribed as polycistronic mRNAs. Plastid protein biosynthesis occurs on bacterial-type 70S ribosomes and translation initiation of many (but not all) mRNAs is mediated by Shine-Dalgarno (SD) sequences. To study the mechanisms of SD sequence recognition, we have analyzed translation initiation from mRNAs contai...
