Ribosomal protein S7 from Escherichia coli uses the same determinants to bind 16S ribosomal RNA and its messenger RNA.
Ribosomal protein S7 from Escherichia coli binds to the lower half of the 3' major domain of 16S rRNA and initiates its folding. It also binds to its own mRNA, the str mRNA, and represses its translation. Using filter binding assays, we show in this study that the same mutations that interfere with S7 binding to 16S rRNA also weaken its affinity for its mRNA. This suggests that the same protein...
متن کاملAlternative conformations in Escherichia coli 16S ribosomal RNA.
Partially denatured 16S rRNA from 30S ribosomes shows features of secondary structure in electron microscopy that correspond to the well accepted secondary structure model derived from chemical modification and phylogenetic data. However, a very different conformation is seen in precursor 16S rRNA sequences contained within 30S pre-rRNA transcripts: the major 5'-terminal loop is absent, and sev...
متن کاملHow bacterial ribosomal protein L20 assembles with 23 S ribosomal RNA and its own messenger RNA.
In bacteria, the expression of ribosomal proteins is often feedback-regulated at the translational level by the binding of the protein to its own mRNA. This is the case for L20, which binds to two distinct sites of its mRNA that both resemble its binding site on 23 S rRNA. In the present work, we report an NMR analysis of the interaction between the C-terminal domain of L20 (L20C) and both its ...
متن کاملMapping of the RNA recognition site of Escherichia coli ribosomal protein S7.
Bacterial ribosomal protein S7 initiates the folding of the 3' major domain of 16S ribosomal RNA by binding to its lower half. The X-ray structure of protein S7 from thermophilic bacteria was recently solved and found to be a modular structure, consisting of an alpha-helical domain with a beta-ribbon extension. To gain further insights into its interaction with rRNA, we cloned the S7 gene from ...
متن کاملMatching the crystallographic structure of ribosomal protein S7 to a three-dimensional model of the 16S ribosomal RNA.
Two recently published but independently derived structures, namely the X-ray crystallographic structure of ribosomal protein S7 and the "binding pocket" for this protein in a three-dimensional model of the 16S rRNA, have been correlated with one another. The known rRNA-protein interactions for S7 include a minimum binding site, a number of footprint sites, and two RNA-protein crosslink sites o...
