Here we present the 1.9 Å resolution cryo electron microscopy structure of the 80S human ribosome resolving numerous new ribosomal RNA modifications and functionally important ions such as Zn, K and Mg, including their associated individual water molecules. The 2'-O-methylation, pseudo-uridine and base modifications were confirmed by mass spectrometry, resulting in a complete investigation of the >230 sites, many of which could not be addressed previously. They choreograph key interactions within the RNA and at the interface with proteins, including at the ribosomal subunit interfaces of the fully assembled 80S ribosome. Uridine isomerization turns out to be a key mechanism for U-A base pair stabilization in RNA in general. The structural environment of chemical modifications and ions is primordial for the RNA architecture of the mature human ribosome, hence providing a structural framework to address their role in healthy states and in human diseases. |
