Project description:Levels of the ribosome, the conserved molecular machine that mediates translation, are tightly linked to cellular growth rate. In humans, ribosomopathies are diseases associated with cell-type-specific pathologies and reduced ribosomal protein (RP) levels. Because gene expression defects resulting from ribosome deficiency have not yet been experimentally defined, we systematically probed mRNA, translation, and protein signatures that were either unlinked or linked to cellular growth rate in RP-deficient yeast cells. Ribosome concentration was seen to be associated with translation of gene sub-classes, and profound general secondary effects of RP loss on the spectrum of cellular mRNAs were seen. Among these effects, growth-defective 60S mutants increased synthesis of proteins involved in proteasome-mediated degradation, whereas 40S mutants accumulated mature 60S subunits and increased translation of ribosome biogenesis genes. These distinct signatures of protein synthesis suggest intriguing and currently mysterious differences in the cellular consequences of deficiency for small and large ribosomal subunits.

Project description:Conventional preparation methods of plant ribosomes fail to resolve non-translating chloroplast or cytoplasmic ribosome subunits from translating fractions. We established preparation of these ribosome complexes from Arabidopsis thaliana leaf, root, and seed tissues by optimized sucrose density gradient centrifugation of protease protected plant extracts. The method co-purified non-translating 30S and 40S ribosome subunits, separated non-translating 50S from 60S subunits, and resolved assembled monosomes from low oligomeric polysomes. Combining ribosome fractionation with microfluidic rRNA analysis and proteomics, we characterized the rRNA and ribosomal protein (RP) composition. The identity of cytoplasmic and chloroplast ribosome complexes and the presence of ribosome biogenesis factors in the 60S - 80S sedimentation interval were verified. In vivo cross-linking of leaf tissue stabilized ribosome biogenesis complexes but induced polysome run-off. Omitting cross-linking, the established paired fractionation and proteome analysis monitored relative abundances of plant chloroplast and cytoplasmic ribosome fractions and enabled analysis of RP composition and ribosome associated proteins including transiently associated biogenesis factors.

Project description:Plant ribosomes are heterogeneous due to genome duplications that resulted in several paralog genes encoding each ribosomal protein (RP). The mainstream view suggests that heterogeneity provides sufficient ribosomes throughout the Arabidopsis lifespan without any functional implications. Nevertheless, genome duplications are known to produce sub- and neofunctionalization of initially redundant genes. Functional divergence of RP paralogs can be considered ribosome specialization if the diversified functions of these paralogs remain within the context of protein translation, especially if RP divergence should contribute to a preferential or ultimately even rigorous selection of transcripts to be translated by a RP-defined ribosome subpopulation. Here we provide evidence that cold acclimation triggers a reprogramming in structural RPs at the transcriptome and proteome level. The reprogramming alters the abundance of RPs or RP paralogs in non-translational 60S large subunits (LSUs) and translational polysome fractions, a phenomenon known as substoichiometry. Cold triggered substoichiometry of ribosomal complexes differ once Arabidopsis REIL-like mediated late maturation step for the LSU is impaired. Interestingly, remodeling of ribosomes after a cold stimulus appears to be significantly constrained to specific spatial regions of the ribosome. The regions that are significantly changed during cold acclimation as judged by transcriptome or proteome data include the polypeptide exit tunnel and the P-Stalk. Both substructures of the ribosome represent plausible targets of mechanisms that may constrain translation by controlled ribosome heterogeneity. This work represents a step forward towards understanding heterogeneity and potential specialization of plant ribosomal complexes.

Project description:The REIL proteins are required for late ribosomal biogenesis and accumulation of the 60S large ribosome subunit in mature leaves of Arabidopsis thaliana upon acclimation to low temperature. To validate these functions in roots, we conducted a multi-level system analysis targeted at understanding defects and compensations responses of reil mutants before acclimation to low temperature and following temperature shift. Hydroponic root tissue enabled analysis of eukaryotic ribosome complexes with negligible interference of organelle ribosomes. Hydroponic cultivation attenuated the growth defect of reil mutants at low temperature and provided new insights into the primary functions of Arabidopsis REIL proteins. Arabidopsis tightly controls the balance of non-translating 40S and 60S subunits. Reil mutants initially deplete both non-translating subunits upon shift to 10°C and subsequently replenish these pools slowly. Reil mutations compensate the 60S biosynthesis defect by increased baseline levels of non-translating 40S and 60S subunits and depletion of a likely non-translating, KCl-sensitive 80S sub-fraction in the cold. We infer that Arabidopsis buffers fluctuating translation demands following temperature cues by activating non-translating ribosome fractions before de novo synthesis meets temperature-induced demands. Reil1 reil2 double mutants accumulate 43S-preinitiation complexes and pre-60S-maturation complexes and affect the paralog composition of non-translating ribosome fractions. With few exceptions, e.g. RPL3B and RPL24C, these changes were not under transcriptional control. Our study suggests requirement of de novo synthesis of eukaryotic ribosomes for long-term cold acclimation. Double mutant analysis indicates feedback control of REIL-mediated 60S maturation on NUC2 and eIF3C2 transcription and implies functions of two so far non-described proteins in late plant ribosome biogenesis. We propose that Arabidopsis requires biosynthesis of specialized ribosomes for successful cold acclimation.

Project description:eIF3 is a multi-subunit complex thought to execute numerous functions in canonical translation initiation, including mRNA recruitment to the 40S ribosome, scanning for the start codon, and inhibition of 60S subunit joining 1–3. eIF3 was also found to interact with 40S and 60S ribosomal proteins and translation elongation factors 4, but a direct involvement in translation elongation has never been demonstrated. Using selective ribosome profiling, we made the unexpected observation that eIF3 remains bound to post-initiation 80S ribosomes, followed by release after translation of ~50 codons. Furthermore, eIF3 deficiency reduces early ribosomal elongation speed, particularly on mRNAs encoding proteins associated with membrane-associated functions, resulting in defective synthesis of their encoded proteins and abnormal mitochondrial and lysosomal physiology. Accordingly, heterozygous eIF3e+/- knockout mice accumulate giant mitochondria in skeletal muscle and show a progressive decline in muscle strength with age. Hence, in addition to its canonical role in translation initiation, eIF3 interacts with 80S ribosomes to enhance, at the level of early elongation, the synthesis of proteins with membrane-associated functions, an activity that is critical for normal muscle health.

Project description:The budding yeast E3 SUMO ligase Mms21, a component of the Smc5-6 complex, regulates sister chromatid cohesion, DNA replication, and DNA repair. We identify a role for Mms21 in ribosome biogenesis. The mms21RINGD mutant exhibits reduced rRNA production, nuclear accumulation of 60S and 40S ribosomal proteins, and elevated Gcn4 translation. Genes involved in ribosome biogenesis and translation are down-regulated in the mms21RINGD mutant.

Project description:Functions of Arabidopsis REI1-LIKE (REIL) proteins, two homologs of a yeast ribosome biogenesis protein (RBP) that takes part in the late cytoplasmic steps of 60S ribosomal subunit maturation, were characterized by systems analyses of the 10°C cold acclimating reil1-1 reil2-1 double mutant compared to Col-0 wildtype. The mutant lacked both REIL proteins, was strongly growth inhibited in the cold and complemented by constitutive expression of N-terminal FLUORESCENT PROTEIN (FP)-REIL1 and FP-REIL2 fusion proteins under control of the UBIQUITIN 10 promoter. Wildtype acclimation to 10°C causes relative accumulation of cytosolic ribosome subunits and rRNA. Expression of cytosolic ribosomal genes, known cytosolic RBPs, translation initiation- and elongation-factors was activated. Conserved function of Arabidopsis REIL proteins was indicated by delay of these processes in reil1-1 reil2-1, cytosolic localization of FP-REIL proteins and native REIL protein interactions with 60S containing ribosome fractions. Non-acclimated reil1-1 reil2-1 triggered plant specific metabolic and transcriptomic cold acclimation responses that included activation of the DREB/CBF-regulon with a preference for the cold acclimation factors, CBF1/DREB1B, CBF2/DREB1C, and CBF3/DREB1A. Cold-acclimating reil1-1 reil2-1 maintained cellular integrity and acquired freezing tolerance but did not activate FLOWERING LOCUS T expression in mature leaves. This block was independent of FLOWERING LOCUS C and AGAMOUS-LIKE 19 mediated vernalization. We conclude that Arabidopsis REIL proteins enhance accumulation of cytosolic ribosome subunits after cold shift and either directly or indirectly feedback on temperature perception by suppression of premature cold acclimation at optimized temperature and by triggering growth and the vegetative to generative phase transition in the cold. Transcriptomic profiling demonstrated a hidden acclimation phenotype of the morphologically inconspicuous reil1-1reil2-1 mutant under optimized temperature conditions. Premature triggering of cold acclimation, a severe growth defect at 10°C and compensation responses indicate that REIL function may extend beyond cytosolic ribosome biogenesis towards translation initiation.

Project description:The recycling of ribosomal subunits after translation termination is critical for efficient gene expression. Tma64 (eIF2D), Tma20 (MCT-1), and Tma22 (DENR) function as 40S recycling factors in vitro, but it is unknown whether they perform this function in vivo or serve as alternative initiation factors. Ribosome profiling of strains missing these factors revealed 80S ribosomes queued behind the stop codon, consistent with a block in 40S recycling. We found that unrecycled ribosomes could reinitiate translation at AUG codons in the 3’UTR, as evidenced by peaks in the footprint data and 3’UTR reporter analysis. In vitro translation experiments using reporter mRNAs containing upstream ORFs (uORFs) further established that reinitiation increased in the absence of these proteins. In some cases, 40S ribosomes appeared to rejoin with 60S subunits and undergo an alternative 80S reinitiation process in 3’UTRs. These results support a crucial role for Tma64, Tma20, and Tma22 in the recycling of 40S ribosomal subunits at stop codons and translation reinitiation.

Project description:The Mtq2-Trm112 methyltransferase is known to modify the translational eukaryotic release factor eRF1 on the glutamine side chain of a universally conserved GGQ motif, which is essential to translation termination. The exact role of eRF1 methylation remains unknown. As the deletion of MTQ2 leads to severe growth impairment in S. cerevisiae, we have investigated its role further. Here we report an unexpected function of Mtq2 in ribosome biogenesis. We reveal that Mtq2 is part of nuclear precursor ribosomes to 60S subunits, and we demonstrate that its catalytic activity is required for the stable production of mature 5.8S and 25S rRNAs and for pre-60S export. Consistently, in the absence of Mtq2 function pre-60S subunits enriched in the export factors Nmd3 and Arx1 accumulate in the nucleus. We conclude that, in addition to its role as a translation terminator modification enzyme, Mtq2 is a ribosome assembly factor which is important for late-stage large ribosomal subunit formation.
