Project description:Although protein synthesis dynamics has been studied both with theoretical models and by profiling ribosome footprints, the determinants of ribosome flux along open reading frames (ORFs) are not fully understood. Combining measurements of protein synthesis rate with ribosome footprinting data, we here inferred translation initiation and elongation rates for over a thousand ORFs in exponentially-growing wildtype yeast cells. We found that the amino acid composition of synthesized proteins is as important a determinant of translation elongation rate as parameters related to codon and tRNA adaptation. We did not find evidence of ribosome collisions curbing the protein output of yeast transcripts, either in high translation conditions associated with exponential growth, or in strains in which deletion of individual ribosomal protein genes leads to globally increased or decreased translation. Slow translation elongation is characteristic of RP-encoding transcripts, which have markedly lower protein output compared to other transcripts with equally high ribosome densities.

Project description:Translation initiation is considered overall rate-limiting for protein biosynthesis, whereas the impact of non-uniform ribosomal elongation rates is largely unknown. Using a modified ribosome profiling protocol based on footprints from two closely packed ribosomes (disomes), we have mapped ribosomal collisions transcriptome-wide in mouse liver. We uncover that the stacking of an elongating onto a paused ribosome occurs frequently and scales with translation rate, trapping ~10% of translating ribosomes in the disome state. A distinct class of pause sites, independent of translation rate, is indicative of deterministic pausing signals. We find pause sites associated with specific codons, amino acids, and peptide motifs, and with structural features of the nascent polypeptide, suggestive of programmed pausing as a widespread mechanism associated with protein folding. Evolutionary conservation at disome sites and experiments indicate functional relevance of translational pausing. Collectively, our disome profiling approach allows novel and unexpected insights into gene regulation occurring at the step of translation elongation.

Project description:This translation model consists of 274 biochemical reactions, including 119 reactions with non-linear kinetics. This mechanistic model accounts for the concentrations of mRNA, the ribosome, the different charged tRNAs, and the elongation factors Ts (EF-Ts) and Tu (EF-Tu). We fully parameterized the model with molecular masses and kinetic constants measured experimentally; the only exceptions are the initiation parameters, which were previously estimated from gene expression data, and the ribosomal Michaelis constant for the ternary complexes, which was estimated based on the diffusion limit and hence represents a lower bound. The model is based purely on biochemical and biophysical considerations; it contains no free parameters for fitting, nor does it include any explicit growth-rate dependencies. This model is used to test our hypothesis that, to maximize the E. coli growth rate in a given environment, natural selection minimizes the total cost of translation components utilized to achieve the required protein production rate.

Project description:The ribosome associated complex (RAC) is a ribosome bound protein chaperone complex reported to surveil the translation of proteins with positively charged regions. It has been posited that RAC might be able to directly regulate translation by coupling co-translational folding with the peptide-elongation cycle. To identify the targets of RAC in cells and test the hypothesis that the complex modulates translation, we performed ribosome profiling on wild- type yeast cells and cells lacking a key component of the RAC that binds near the ribosome active site (zuo1Δ). Ribosome profiling is a sequencing-based technique that allows us to take a nucleotide resolution snapshot of where every ribosome sits on every mRNA in a cell at a given point in time. This powerful approach can provide information about the contributions of individual proteins to the translational landscape of a cell. We identified >300 targets for the RAC, and unexpectedly observed that the ribosome frameshifts on ~10% of these targets in zuo1Δ cells. The maintenance of ribosome reading frame is essential for cell health because frameshifts can result in the production of non-functional truncated and extended protein products. These studies have the potential to uncover RAC as a critical determinant of translational fidelity in eukaryotic cells.

Project description:Abf1 and Reb1, two general regulatory factors playing roles at promoters and other genome functional sites in budding yeast, were mapped genome-wide by ChIP-sequencing using strains expressing TAP-tagged versions of the proteins. As expected on the basis of previous in silico analysis of promoter regions, we found that these factors are enriched at the promoters of ribosome biogenesis (Ribi) genes, a large regulon of more than 200 genes required for ribosome biosynthesis and assembly, and known to be coordinately regulated in response to nutrient availability and cellular growth rate.

Project description:Diphthamide (DPH) is a conserved amino acid modification on eukaryotic translation elongation factor eEF2. We show that loss of DPH increases -1 ribosomal frameshifting at both programmed, including in SARS-CoV-2, and non-programmed sites. Ribosome profiling of yeast and mammalian cells lacking DPH reveals increased ribosomal drop-off during elongation. The drop-off defect on the long yeast MDN1 gene was suppressed by eliminating out-of-frame stop codons. Our data reveal that loss of DPH impairs the fidelity of translocation during translation elongation resulting in increased rates of ribosomal frameshifting and premature termination at out-of-frame stop codons.
