Inter-protein dependences during assembly of the 50S subunit from Escherichia coli ribosomes. 1982

R Röhl, and H E Roth, and K H Nierhaus

Recently, we published an assembly map of the 50S ribosomal subunit from E. coli, incorporating 23S and 5S RNA and 26 out of the 32 L-proteins (Röhl and Nierhaus (1982) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A., in press). In this paper we present the experimental details which led to the compilation of this 50S assembly map. The following experimental strategy was pursued: In order to elucidate binding of a protein to 23S RNA or a protein-protein interdependence, 23S rRNA and a set of purified ribosomal proteins were incubated under reconstitution conditions, the RNA-protein complex was separated from the non-bound proteins by sucrose gradient centrifugation and the proteins contained in the complex were determined by means of gel electrophoresis.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D011487 Protein Conformation The characteristic 3-dimensional shape of a protein, including the secondary, supersecondary (motifs), tertiary (domains) and quaternary structure of the peptide chain. PROTEIN STRUCTURE, QUATERNARY describes the conformation assumed by multimeric proteins (aggregates of more than one polypeptide chain). Conformation, Protein,Conformations, Protein,Protein Conformations
D004926 Escherichia coli A species of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria (GRAM-NEGATIVE FACULTATIVELY ANAEROBIC RODS) commonly found in the lower part of the intestine of warm-blooded animals. It is usually nonpathogenic, but some strains are known to produce DIARRHEA and pyogenic infections. Pathogenic strains (virotypes) are classified by their specific pathogenic mechanisms such as toxins (ENTEROTOXIGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI), etc. Alkalescens-Dispar Group,Bacillus coli,Bacterium coli,Bacterium coli commune,Diffusely Adherent Escherichia coli,E coli,EAggEC,Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli,Enterococcus coli,Diffusely Adherent E. coli,Enteroaggregative E. coli,Enteroinvasive E. coli,Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli
