Abstract Ribosome biogenesis is a complex process requiring multiple precursor ribosomal RNA (rRNA) cleavage steps. In archaea, the full set of ribonucleases (RNases) involved in rRNA processing remains to be discovered. A previous study suggested that FAU-1, conserved protein containing an RNase G/E-like domain fused unknown function (DUF402), acts as archaea. However, molecular basis this activity remained so far elusive. Here, we report two X-ray crystallographic structures G/E-like–DUF402 hybrid proteins from Pyrococcus furiosus and Sulfolobus acidocaldarius, at 2.1 2.0 Å, respectively. The highlight structural homology with 5′ recognition Escherichia coli E but no other known catalytic nuclease domains. Surprisingly, demonstrate C-terminal protein, annotated putative diphosphatase domain, harbors activity. Our functional analysis also supports model by which regulatory subunit Finally, vivo experiments Haloferax volcanii suggest participates maturation pre-16S rRNA. Together, our defines new family, termed W first archaea-specific contributor archaeal ribosome biogenesis.

Although reported in the literature, ribosome heterogeneity is a phenomenon whose extent and implications cell organismal biology not fully appreciated. This has been case due to lack of appropriate techniques approaches.

This short review bridges two biological fields: ribosomes and nucleosomes—two nucleoprotein assemblies that, along with many viruses, share proteins featuring long filamentous segments at their N- or C-termini. A central hypothesis is that these extensions tails perform analogous functions in both systems. The evolution of structures appears closely tied to the emergence regulatory networks signaling pathways, facilitating increasingly complex roles for nucleosome alike. begins by summarizing nucleosomes, followed a detailed comparison highlighting similarities differences, particularly light recent findings on ribosomal ribosome dynamics. analysis seeks uncover whether systems operate based shared principles mechanisms. nucleosome–ribosome analogy may offer valuable insights into unresolved questions fields. For instance, new structural from might shed potential motifs formed histone tails. From an evolutionary perspective, this study revisits origins regulation ancient assemblies, suggesting represent remnants earliest network governing dynamic control.

Variation in the composition of different ribosomes, termed ribosome heterogeneity, is a now well established phenomenon. However, functional implications this heterogeneity on regulation protein synthesis are only beginning to be revealed. While there numerous examples heterogeneous comparatively few bona fide specialized ribosomes described. Specialization requires that compositionally distinct through their subtly altered structure, have consequence translational output. Even for those specialization been characterized, precise mechanistic details how changes and rRNA enable regulate translation still missing. Here, we suggest looking at evolution across tree life may help reveal central principles regulation. We consider structural studies provided insight into potential mechanisms which could affect translation, including mRNA open reading frame selectivity, elongation dynamics post-translational folding. Further, highlight some challenges must addressed show review contribution various models. Several discussed, recent starting shed light molecular specialization.

Abstract Co-transcriptional assembly is an integral feature of the formation RNA–protein complexes that mediate translation. For ribosome synthesis, prior studies have indicated strict order transcription rRNA domains may not be obligatory during bacterial biogenesis, since a series circularly permuted rRNAs are viable. In this work, we report structural insights into large subunit (LSU) based on cryo-EM density maps intermediates accumulate in vitro synthesis using set (CiPer) rRNAs. The observed ensemble 23 resolved reveals conserved routes with underlying hierarchy among cooperative blocks. There intricate interdependencies for key helices revealed from circular permutation rRNA.
