The recognition mode between hsRBFA and mitoribosome 12S rRNA during mitoribosomal biogenesis.

ABSTRACT: Eukaryotes contain two sets of genomes: the nuclear genome and the mitochondrial genome. The mitochondrial genome transcripts 13 mRNAs that encode 13 essential proteins for the oxidative phosphorylation complex, 2 rRNAs (12s rRNA and 16s rRNA), and 22 tRNAs. The proper assembly and maturation of the mitochondrial ribosome (mitoribosome) are critical for the translation of the 13 key proteins and the function of the mitochondrion. Human ribosome-binding factor A (hsRBFA) is a mitoribosome assembly factor that binds with helix 28, helix 44 and helix 45 of 12S rRNA and facilitates the transcriptional modification of 12S rRNA during the mitoribosomal biogenesis. Previous research mentioned that the malfunction of hsRBFA will induce the instability of mitoribosomes and affect the function of mi
