Project description:Protein synthesis by ribosomes takes place on a linear substrate but at variable speeds. Transient pausing of ribosomes can impact a variety of co-translational processes, including protein targeting and folding. These pauses are influenced by the sequence of the mRNA. Thus redundancy in the genetic code allows the same protein to be translated at different rates. However, our knowledge of both the position and the mechanism of translational pausing in vivo is highly limited. Here we present a genome-wide analysis of translational pausing in bacteria using ribosome profiling-deep sequencing of ribosome-protected mRNA fragments. This approach enables high-resolution measurement of ribosome density profiles along most transcripts at unperturbed, endogenous expression levels. Unexpectedly, we found that codons decoded by rare tRNAs do not lead to slow translation under nutrient-rich conditions. Instead, Shine-Dalgarno-(SD) like features within coding sequences cause pervasive translational pausing. Using an orthogonal ribosome possessing an altered anti-SD sequence, we demonstrated that pausing is due to hybridization between mRNA and the 16S rRNA of the translating ribosome. In protein coding sequences, internal SD sequences are disfavoured, which leads to biased usage, avoiding codons and codon pairs that resemble canonical SD sites. Our results indicate that internal SD-like sequences are a major determinant of translation rates and a global driving force for the coding of bacterial genomes.

Project description:The community composition (in terms of abundance, distribution and contribution of diverse clades) of bacteria involved in nitrogen transformations in the oxygen minimum zones may be related to the rates of fixed N loss in these systems. The abundance of both denirifying and anammox bacteria, and the assemblage composition of denitrifying bacteria were investigated in the Eastern Tropical South Pacific and the Arabian Sea using assays based on molecular markers for the two groups of bacteria. The abundance and distribution of bacteria associated with the fixed N removal processes denitrification and anammox were investigated using quantitative PCR for genes encoding nitrite reductase (nirK and nirS) in denitrifying bacteria and hydrazine oxidase(hzo) and 16S rRNA genesin anammox bacteria. All of these genes had depth distributions with maxima associated with the secondary nitrite maximum in low oxygen waters. NirS was mch more abundant than nirK, and much more abundant than the 16S rRNA gene from anammox bacteria. The ratio of hzo:16S rRNA for anammox was low and variable implying greater unexplored diversity in the the hzo gene. Assemblage composition of the abundant nirS-type denitrifiers was evaluated using a funcitonal gene microarray. Of the nirS archetypes represented on the microarray, very few occurred speficically in one region or depth interval, but the assemblages varied significantly. Community composition of denitrifiers based on microarray analysis of the nirS gene was most different between geographical regions. Within each region, the surface layer and OMZ assemblages clustered distinctly. Thus, in addition to spatial and temporal variation in denitrificaiton and anammox rates, both microbial abundance and community composition also vary between OMZ regions and depths. Two color array (Cy3 and Cy5): the universal standard 20-mer oligo is printed to the slide with a 70-mer oligo (an archetype). Environmental DNA sequences (fluoresced with Cy3) within 15% of the 70-mer conjugated to a 20-mer oligo (fluoresced with Cy5) complementary to the universal standard will bind to the oligo probes on the array. Signal is the ratio of Cy3 to Cy5. Three replicate probes were printed for each archetype. Two replicate arrays were run on duplicate targets.

Project description:Ribosomes of Bacteroidia (formerly Bacteroidetes) fail to recognize Shine-Dalgarno (SD) sequences even though they harbor the anti-SD (ASD) of 16S rRNA. This is due to sequestration of the 3’ tail of 16S rRNA in a pocket formed by bS21, bS18, and bS6 on the 30S platform, which functionally occludes the ASD. Interestingly, in many Flavobacteriales, the gene encoding bS21, rpsU, contains an extended SD sequence. In this work, we present genetic and biochemical evidence that bS21 synthesis in Flavobacterium johnsoniae is autoregulated via a subpopulation of ribosomes that specifically lack bS21. Mutation or depletion of bS21 in the cell specifically increases translation of reporters with strong SD sequences, such as rpsU’-gfp. Purified ribosomes lacking bS21 (or its C-terminal region) exhibit higher rates of initiation on rpsU mRNA and lower rates of initiation on other (SD-less) mRNAs than control ribosomes. The mechanism of autoregulation depends on extensive pairing between mRNA and 16S rRNA, and exceptionally strong SD sequences, with predicted pairing free energies of < –13 kcal/mol, are characteristic of rpsU across the Bacteroidia. To our knowledge, this is the first example of biochemically-verified specialized ribosomes with a clear regulatory purpose.
