Function
[RL22_ECOLI] This protein binds specifically to 23S rRNA; its binding is stimulated by other ribosomal proteins, e.g. L4, L17, and L20. It is important during the early stages of 50S assembly. It makes multiple contacts with different domains of the 23S rRNA in the assembled 50S subunit and ribosome.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01331_B] The globular domain of the protein is one of the proteins that surrounds the polypeptide exit tunnel on the outside of the subunit, while an extended beta-hairpin is found that penetrates into the center of the 70S ribosome where it lines the wall of the exit tunnel. Removal of most of this hairpin (residues 85-95) does not prevent its incorporation into 70S ribosomes. Two of the hairpin residues (91 and 93) seem to be involved in translation elongation arrest of the SecM protein, as their replacement by larger amino acids alleviates the arrest.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01331_B] [RL5_ECOLI] This is 1 of the proteins that binds and probably mediates the attachment of the 5S RNA into the large ribosomal subunit, where it forms part of the central protuberance. Its 5S rRNA binding is significantly enhanced in the presence of L18.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01333_B] In the 70S ribosome in the initiation state (PubMed:12809609) was modeled to contact protein S13 of the 30S subunit (bridge B1b), connecting the 2 subunits; the protein-protein contacts between S13 and L5 in B1b change in the model with bound EF-G implicating this bridge in subunit movement (PubMed:12809609 and PubMed:18723842). In the two 3.5 A resolved ribosome structures (PubMed:16272117) the contacts between L5, S13 and S19 are different, confirming the dynamic nature of this interaction.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01333_B] Contacts the P site tRNA; the 5S rRNA and some of its associated proteins might help stabilize positioning of ribosome-bound tRNAs.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01333_B] [RL18_ECOLI] This is one of the proteins that mediates the attachment of the 5S rRNA subcomplex onto the large ribosomal subunit where it forms part of the central protuberance. Binds stably to 5S rRNA; increases binding abilities of L5 in a cooperative fashion; both proteins together confer 23S rRNA binding. The 5S rRNA and some of its associated proteins might help stabilize positioning of ribosome-bound tRNAs.[1] [RL19_ECOLI] This protein is located at the 30S-50S ribosomal subunit interface. In the 70S ribosome (PubMed:12809609) it has been modeled to make two contacts with the 16S rRNA of the 30S subunit forming part of bridges B6 and B8. In the 3.5 A resolved structures (PubMed:16272117) L14 and L19 interact and together make contact with the 16S rRNA. The protein conformation is quite different between the 50S and 70S structures, which may be necessary for translocation.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00402] [RL17_ECOLI] Requires L15 for assembly into the 50S subunit.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01368] [RL29_ECOLI] Binds 23S rRNA. It is not essential for growth.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00374] One of the proteins that surrounds the polypeptide exit tunnel on the outside of the subunit. Contacts trigger factor (PubMed:12226666).[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00374] [RL21_ECOLI] This protein binds to 23S rRNA in the presence of protein L20.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01363] [RL15_ECOLI] This protein binds the 5S rRNA. It is required for the late stages of subunit assembly, and is essential for 5S rRNA assembly onto the ribosome.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01341_B] [RL25_ECOLI] This is one of the proteins that binds to the 5S RNA in the ribosome where it forms part of the central protuberance. Binds to the 5S rRNA independently of L5 and L18. Not required for binding of the 5S rRNA/L5/L18 subcomplex to 23S rRNA.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01336] [A0A073UC57_ECOLX] Forms part of the ribosomal stalk, playing a central role in the interaction of the ribosome with GTP-bound translation factors.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00362][SAAS:SAAS01154773] [RL11_ECOLI] This protein binds directly to 23S ribosomal RNA. Forms the L11 stalk, which is mobile in the ribosome, indicating its contribution to the activity of initiation, elongation and release factors.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00736_B] [RL23_ECOLI] One of the early assembly proteins, it binds 23S rRNA; is essential for growth. One of the proteins that surround the polypeptide exit tunnel on the outside of the subunit. Acts as the docking site for trigger factor (PubMed:12226666) for Ffh binding to the ribosome (SRP54, PubMed:12756233 and PubMed:12702815) and to nascent polypeptide chains (PubMed:12756233).[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01369] [RL14_ECOLI] This protein binds directly to 23S ribosomal RNA. In the E.coli 70S ribosome (PubMed:12809609) it has been modeled to make two contacts with the 16S rRNA of the 30S subunit, forming part of bridges B5 and B8, connecting the 2 subunits. Although the protein undergoes significant rotation during the transition from an initiation to and EF-G bound state, the bridges remain stable. In the 3.5 A resolved structures (PubMed:16272117) L14 and L19 interact and together make contact with the 16S rRNA in bridges B5 and B8.[2] Can also interact with RsfA, in this case bridge B8 probably cannot form, and the 30S and 50S ribosomal subunits do not associate, which represses translation.[3] [RL24_ECOLI] One of two assembly initiator proteins, it binds directly to the 5'-end of the 23S rRNA, where it nucleates assembly of the 50S subunit. It is not thought to be involved in the functions of the mature 50S subunit in vitro.[4] One of the proteins that surrounds the polypeptide exit tunnel on the outside of the subunit.[5] [RL4_ECOLI] One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, this protein initially binds near the 5'-end of the 23S rRNA. It is important during the early stages of 50S assembly. It makes multiple contacts with different domains of the 23S rRNA in the assembled 50S subunit and ribosome.[6] Protein L4 is a both a transcriptional repressor and a translational repressor protein; these two functions are independent of each other. It regulates transcription of the S10 operon (to which L4 belongs) by causing premature termination of transcription within the S10 leader; termination absolutely requires the NusA protein. L4 controls the translation of the S10 operon by binding to its mRNA. The regions of L4 that control regulation (residues 131-210) are different from those required for ribosome assembly (residues 89-103).[7] Forms part of the polypeptide exit tunnel.[8] Can regulate expression from Citrobacter freundii, Haemophilus influenzae, Morganella morganii, Salmonella typhimurium, Serratia marcescens, Vibrio cholerae and Yersinia enterocolitica (but not Pseudomonas aeruginosa) S10 leaders in vitro.[9] [RL9_ECOLI] One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, it binds very close to the 3' end of the 23S rRNA.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00503] [RL13_ECOLI] This protein is one of the early assembly proteins of the 50S ribosomal subunit, although it is not seen to bind rRNA by itself. It is important during the early stages of 50S assembly.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01366] [RL16_ECOLI] This protein binds directly to 23S ribosomal RNA and is located at the A site of the peptidyltransferase center. It contacts the A and P site tRNAs. It has an essential role in subunit assembly, which is not well understood.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01342] [RL6_ECOLI] This protein binds directly to at least 2 domains of the 23S ribosomal RNA, thus is important in its secondary structure. It is located near the subunit interface in the base of the L7/L12 stalk, and near the tRNA binding site of the peptidyltransferase center.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01365] Gentamicin-resistant mutations in this protein affect translation fidelity.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01365] [RL2_ECOLI] One of the primary rRNA binding proteins. Located near the base of the L1 stalk, it is probably also mobile. Required for association of the 30S and 50S subunits to form the 70S ribosome, for tRNA binding and peptide bond formation. It has been suggested to have peptidyltransferase activity; this is highly controversial.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01320_B] In the E.coli 70S ribosome in the initiation state it has been modeled to make several contacts with the 16S rRNA (forming bridge B7b, PubMed:12809609); these contacts are broken in the model with bound EF-G.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01320_B] [A0A037YQ84_ECOLX] Part of the Sec protein translocase complex. Interacts with the SecYEG preprotein conducting channel. Has a central role in coupling the hydrolysis of ATP to the transfer of proteins into and across the cell membrane, serving both as a receptor for the preprotein-SecB complex and as an ATP-driven molecular motor driving the stepwise translocation of polypeptide chains across the membrane.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01382] [RL20_ECOLI] One of the primary rRNA binding proteins, it binds close to the 5'-end of the 23S rRNA. It is important during the early stages of 50S assembly.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_00382] [RL3_ECOLI] One of two assembly inititator proteins, it binds directly near the 3'-end of the 23S rRNA, where it nucleates assembly of the 50S subunit.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01325_B]
Publication Abstract from PubMed
Cotranslational protein targeting is a conserved process for membrane protein biogenesis. In Escherichia coli, the essential ATPase SecA was found to cotranslationally target a subset of nascent membrane proteins to the SecYEG translocase at the plasma membrane. The molecular mechanism of this pathway remains unclear. Here we use biochemical and cryoelectron microscopy analyses to show that the amino-terminal amphipathic helix of SecA and the ribosomal protein uL23 form a composite binding site for the transmembrane domain (TMD) on the nascent protein. This binding mode further enables recognition of charged residues flanking the nascent TMD and thus explains the specificity of SecA recognition. Finally, we show that membrane-embedded SecYEG promotes handover of the translating ribosome from SecA to the translocase via a concerted mechanism. Our work provides a molecular description of the SecA-mediated cotranslational targeting pathway and demonstrates an unprecedented role of the ribosome in shielding nascent TMDs.
