Structure of Escherichia coli heat shock protein Hsp15 in complex with ribosomal 50S sununits bearing peptidyl-tRNA

ABSTRACT: In Escherichia coli, the heat shock protein 15 (Hsp15) is part of the cellular response to elevated temperature. Hsp15 interacts with peptidyl-tRNA-50S complexes that arise upon dissociation of translating 70S ribosomes, and is proposed to facilitate their rescue and recycling. A previous structure of E. coli Hsp15 in complex with peptidyl-tRNA-50S complex reported a binding site located at the central protuberance of the 50S subunit. By contrast, recent structures of RqcP, the Hsp15 homolog in Bacillus subtilis, in complex with peptidyl-tRNA-50S complexes have revealed a distinct site positioned between the anticodon-stem-loop (ASL) of the P-site tRNA and H69 of the 23S rRNA. Here we demonstrate that exposure of E. coli cells to heat shock leads to dissociation of 70S ribosomes and accumulation of 50S subunits, thus identifying a natural substrate for Hsp15 binding. Additionally, we have determined a cryo-EM reconstruction of the Hsp15-50S-peptidyl-tRNA complex isolated from heat shocked E. coli cells, revealing that Hsp15 binds to the 50S-peptidyl-tRNA complex analogously to its B. subtilis homolog RqcP. Collectively, our findings support a model where Hsp15 promotes access to the A-site for putative rescue factors to release the aberrant nascent polypeptide chain.

RqcH and RqcP catalyze processive poly-alanine synthesis

Project description:In the cell, stalled ribosomes are rescued through ribosome-associated protein quality-control (RQC) pathways. We demonstrate that RqcH is responsible for tRNAAla selection during RQC elongation, whereas RqcP lacks any tRNA specificity. The ribosomal protein uL11 is crucial for RqcH, but not RqcP, recruitment to the 50S subunit, and B. subtilis lacking uL11 are RQC-deficient. Through mutational mapping, we identify critical residues within RqcH and RqcP that are important for interaction with the P-site tRNA and/or the 50S subunit. Collectively, our findings provide mechanistic insight into the role of RqcH and RqcP in the bacterial RQC pathway. the synthesis of C-terminal poly-Alanine ‘tail’. While it is well-established that RqcP and RqcH are essential for poly-Alanine-tailing in living cells, here, by reconstituting the RQC elongation biochemically we provide a direct proof that the two factors are sufficient. We demonstrate that while RqcH is responsible for tRNAAla selection during RQC elongation, RqcP lacks the tRNA specificity. Through mutational mapping we show that stable interaction of RqcP with 23S rRNA – but not with tRNA – is crucial for RQC, supporting the role of the E-site bound RqcP as a pawl of RQC elongation ratchet. We show that ribosomal protein uL11 is crucial for RqcH – but nor RqcP – recruitment to 50S, and B. subtilis lacking uL11 is RQC-deficient. Finally, we show that proteins encoded by non-stop mRNAs are not universally efficiently targeted by RQC, and that simultaneous disruption of RQC and trans-translation results in bacterial filamentation

A novel mechanism of bacteria to adapt to nutrient deprivation via the ribosome silencing factor RsfS (reference number: NMICROBIOL-19112987)

Project description:The factor RsfS is present in almost all bacteria and organelles. RsfS is important under conditions of nutrient downshifts leading to decreasing growth rates. A common feature of these conditions is a strong reduction of the translation capacity revealed by polysomal fraction decrease and a vast appearance of vacant 70S ribosomes, which might cause a devastating energy drain by stimulating the activity of GTPase proteins e.g. EF-G with idle ribosomes. Here we show that RsfS blocks association of free ribosomal subunits and induces dissociation exclusively of vacant ribosomes rather than of programmed ribosomes carrying tRNAs. As a consequence, RsfS reduces the abundance of the cellular translational apparatus, and the EF-G dependent burst of GTP cleavage in the presence of vacant 70S ribosomes as well as with 30S and 50S subunits is decreased. These observations hint to a regulatory role of RsfS by utilizing cellular resource in an economic way under conditions, where the amino acids are limited and energy has to be saved.

Ribosome protein composition in wt and 23S+5S rRNA ribosomes

Project description:The 120-nt long 5S rRNA, is an indispensable component of cytoplasmic ribosomes in all living organisms. The functions of 5S rRNA and the reasons for its evolutionary preservation as an independent molecule remain unclear. Here we used ribosome engineering to investigate whether maintaining 5S rRNA as an independent molecule is critical for ribosome function and cell survival. By fusing circularly permutated 5S rRNA (cp5S) with 23S rRNA and deleting all wild type 5S rRNA genes, we generated an Escherichia coli strain completely devoid of free 5S rRNA. Viability of the engineered cells demonstrates that autonomous 5S rRNA is not required for cell growth at 37°C and is unlikely to have essential functions outside the ribosome. The fully-assembled ribosomes carrying 23S-cp5S hybrid rRNA and lacking free 5S rRNA are highly active in translation. However, the engineered cells accumulate aberrant 50S subunits that are unable to form stable 70S ribosomes. Cryo-EM analysis revealed a dramatically malformed peptidyl transferase center in the misassembled 50S subunits. The results of our experiments argue that the key evolutionary force preserving the autonomous nature of the smallest rRNA is its role in ribosome biogenesis.

Determinants of heat resistance in Escherichia coli AW1.7

Project description:Microarray hybridization of cDNA libraries obtained from exponentially growing or heat-shocked AW1.7 or GGG10 cultures was performed to compare gene expression of these two strains. Expression of selected genes from different functional groups was quantified by quantitative PCR (q-PCR). DnaK, 30S and 50S risobomal subunits were overexpressed in E. coli GGG10 relative to E. coli AW1.7 upon heat shock at 50M-BM-0C, indicating improved ribosome stability. The outer membrane porin NmpC and several transport proteins were overexpressed in exponentially growing E. coli AW1.7. Gene expression of a heat resistant strain, E. coli AW1.7, was compared to gene expression in a heat sensitive strain, E coli GGG10. RNA was isolated from late exponential cultures, or from late exponential cells heat-shocked by exposure to 50M-BM-0C for 15 min. Three independent biological repeats were analyzed, and technical repeats (dye-swap) were performed for two of three biological repeats.

R-proteins in modification deficient ribosomes - free 50S subunits

Project description:Ribosomal RNA modifications are introduced by specific enzymes during ribosome assembly in bacteria. Deletion of individual modification enzymes has a minor effect on bacterial growth, ribosome biogenesis, and translation, which has complicated the definition of the function of the enzymes and their products. We have constructed an E. coli strain lacking 10 genes encoding enzymes that modify 23S rRNA around the peptidyl-transferase center. This strain exhibits severely compromised growth and ribosome assembly, especially at lower temperatures. Ribosomal protein composition of the mature 50S ribosomes and free 50S subunits was analyzed by SILAC based qMS approach. We have found that absence of 23S rRNA modifications around PTC does not affect significantly r-protein content of incompletely assembled 50S or mature 50S ribosomes.

Grad-seq shines light on unrecognized RNA and protein complexes in the model bacterium Escherichia coli

Project description:Stable protein complexes, including those formed with RNA, are major building blocks of every living cell. Escherichia coli has been the leading organism with respect to global bacterial protein-protein networks. However, there has been no global census of RNA/protein complexes in this model species of microbiology. Here, we performed Grad-seq to establish an RNA/protein complexome, reconstructing sedimentation profiles in a glycerol gradient for ~85% of all E. coli transcripts and ~49% of the proteins. In presenting use cases for this resource to be exploited, we show that its stable association with 30S ribosomes gives the seemingly noncoding RNA RyeG of prophage origin away as an mRNA of a toxic small protein. Similarly, we show that the broadly conserved uncharacterized protein YggL is a 50S subunit factor in assembled 70S ribosomes. Overall, this study complements existing interactome resources for the primary model bacterium E. coli with valuable RNA/protein complexome information and should facilitate functional discovery in this and many related species.

Structural basis for PoxtA-mediated resistance to Phenicol and Oxazolidinone antibiotics

Project description:PoxtA and OptrA are ATP binding cassette (ABC) proteins of the F subtype (ABCF) that confer resistance to oxazolidinone, such as linezolid, and phenicol antibiotics, such as chloramphenicol. PoxtA/OptrA are often encoded on mobile genetic elements, facilitating their rapid spread amongst Gram-positive bacteria. These target protection proteins are thought to confer resistance by binding to the ribosome and dislodging the antibiotics from their binding sites. However, a structural basis for their mechanism of action has been lacking. Here by investigating 5'P mRNA decay intermediates, that provide ribosome protection data, we show that PoxtA protects against Linezolid specific stalls. Furthermore, we present cryo-electron microscopy structures of PoxtA in complex with the Enterococcus faecalis 70S ribosome at 2.9–3.1 Å, as well as the complete E. faecalis 70S ribosome at 2.2–2.5 Å. The structures reveal that PoxtA binds within the ribosomal E-site with its antibiotic resistance domain (ARD) extending towards the peptidyltransferase center (PTC) on the large ribosomal subunit. At its closest point, the ARD of PoxtA is still located >15 Å from the linezolid and chloramphenicol binding sites, suggesting that drug release is elicited indirectly. Instead, we observe that the ARD of PoxtA perturbs the CCA-end of the P-site tRNA causing it to shift by ~4 Å out of the PTC, which correlates with a register shift of one amino acid for the attached nascent polypeptide chain. Given that linezolid and chloramphenicol are context-specific translation elongation inhibitors, we postulate that PoxtA/OptrA confer resistance to oxazolidinones and phenicols indirectly by perturbing the P-site tRNA and thereby altering the conformation of the attached nascent chain to disrupt the drug binding site.

Analysis of the dose-dependent response of the ribosome-targeting antibiotic lincomycin on gene expression and its relationship to growth and secondary metabolism of S. coelicolor A3(2).

Project description:Lincomycin is a lincosamide antibiotic that forms cross-links within the peptidyl transferase loop region of the 23S rRNA of the 50S subunit of the bacterial ribosome, thereby inhibiting protein synthesis. We have previously reported that lincomycin at concentrations below the minimum inhibitory concentration potentiates the production of secondary metabolites in actinomycete strains. We aimed to elucidate the fundamental mechanisms underlying lincomycin induction of secondary metabolism in actinomycetes. Therefore, the dose-dependent response of lincomycin on gene expression of the model actinomycetes Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) and possible relationships to secondary metabolism have been investigated.
