FITTING OF COMPONENTS WITH KNOWN STRUCTURE INTO AN 11.5 A CRYO-EM MAP OF THE E.COLI 70S RIBOSOME
Structural highlights
Function[RS5_GEOSE] With S4 and S12 plays an important role in translational accuracy (By similarity). Located at the back of the 30S subunit body where it stabilizes the conformation of the head with respect to the body (By similarity). [RS17_GEOSE] One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, it binds specifically to the 5'-end of 16S ribosomal RNA.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01345] [RS6_THETH] Located on the outer edge of the platform on the body of the 30S subunit (By similarity). [RL11_THEMA] This protein binds directly to 23S ribosomal RNA. [RL6_GEOSE] It is located near the subunit interface in the base of the L7/L12 stalk, and near the tRNA binding site of the peptidyltransferase center (By similarity). This protein binds to the 23S rRNA, and is important in its secondary structure.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01365] [RS7_THET8] One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, it binds directly to 3'-end of the 16S rRNA where it nucleates assembly of the head domain of the 30S subunit. Is located at the subunit interface close to the decoding center. Binds mRNA and the E site tRNA blocking its exit path in the ribosome. This blockage implies that this section of the ribosome must be able to move to release the deacetylated tRNA.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00480_B] [RS15_THETH] One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, it binds directly to 16S rRNA where it helps nucleate assembly of the platform of the 30S subunit by binding and bridging several RNA helices of the 16S rRNA. Forms an intersubunit bridge (bridge B4) with the 23S rRNA of the 50S subunit in the ribosome (By similarity). [RL1_THETH] The L1 stalk is quite mobile in the ribosome, and is involved in E site tRNA release (By similarity). Binds directly to 23S rRNA.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01318] Protein L1 is also a translational repressor protein, it controls the translation of the L11 operon by binding to its mRNA (By similarity).[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01318] [RS4_GEOSE] One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, it binds directly to 16S rRNA where it nucleates assembly of the body of the 30S subunit (By similarity).[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01306_B] With S5 and S12 plays an important role in translational accuracy (By similarity).[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01306_B] Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMedOver 73,000 projections of the E. coli ribosome bound with formyl-methionyl initiator tRNAf(Met) were used to obtain an 11.5 A cryo-electron microscopy map of the complex. This map allows identification of RNA helices, peripheral proteins, and intersubunit bridges. Comparison of double-stranded RNA regions and positions of proteins identified in both cryo-EM and X-ray maps indicates good overall agreement but points to rearrangements of ribosomal components required for the subunit association. Fitting of known components of the 50S stalk base region into the map defines the architecture of the GTPase-associated center and reveals a major change in the orientation of the alpha-sarcin-ricin loop. Analysis of the bridging connections between the subunits provides insight into the dynamic signaling mechanism between the ribosomal subunits.
