The landscape of translational stall sites in bacteria revealed by monosome and disome profiling.

ABSTRACT: Ribosome pauses are associated with various cotranslational events and determine the fate of mRNAs and proteins. Thus, the identification of precise pause sites across the transcriptome is desirable; however, the landscape of ribosome pauses in bacteria remains ambiguous. Here, we harness monosome and disome (or collided ribosome) profiling strategies to survey ribosome pause sites in Escherichia coli Compared to eukaryotes, ribosome collisions in bacteria showed remarkable differences: a low frequency of disomes at stop codons, collisions occurring immediately after 70S assembly on start codons, and shorter queues of ribosomes trailing upstream. The pause sites corresponded with the biochemical validation by integrated nascent chain profiling (iNP) to detect polypeptidyl-tRNA, an e
