Translation fidelity is the limiting factor in the accuracy of gene expression. With an estimated frequency of 10-4, errors in mRNA decoding occur in a mostly stochastic manner. Little is known about the response of higher eukaryotes to chronic loss of ribosomal accuracy as per an increase in the...

Diamond Blackfan anemia is a congenital bone marrow failure syndrome characterized by hypoproliferative anemia, often with associated physical abnormalities. Perturbations of the ribosome appear critically important to the development of DBA, as alterations in 9 different ribosomal protein genes ha...

So far, the annotation of translation initiation sites (TISs) has been based mostly upon bioinformatics rather than experimental evidence. We adapted ribosomal footprinting to puromycin-treated cells to generate a transcriptome-wide map of TISs in a human monocytic cell line. A neural network was tr...

In higher eukaryotes, the large numbers of nuclear-encoded tRNA genes partially ensure the robustness of cytoplasmic protein translation. Here we discover that a loss-of-function in n-Tr20, a member of the nuclear-encoded tRNA Arg UCU family that is expressed specifically in the central nervous syst...

Somatic mutations in ribosomal proteins (RPs), including RPL5, have been reported in approximately 10% of pediatric patients with T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL). In cancer, the incorporation of mutant RPs into ribosomes often disrupts canonical ribosome function, thereby contributing to...

Arabidopsis contains hundreds of ribosomal DNA copies organised within the nucleolar organising regions (NORs) in chromosomes 2 and 4. There are four major types of variants of rDNA, VAR1-4, based on the polymorphisms of 3' external transcribed sequences and these are variably expressed during plant...

We studied 38 multiple myeloma samples to discover mutations in ribosomal proteins. To this end, we ran a specifically designed targeted resequencing study to resequence the coding regions of all ribosomal proteins.
To understand the contribution of the RPL24B protein, a component of the large 60S ribosomal subunit, to the translation of specific mRNAs, we compared the ribosome occupancy of mRNAs in wild type Arabidopsis and the rpl24b/stv1-1 T-DNA insertion mutant. RNA was fractionated using sucrose gradients ...
