We in vitro reconstitute the ATP-dependent U3 release from this particle, catalyzed by the helicase Dhr1, and follow this process by cryo-EM revealing two successive pre-40S intermediates, Dis-D and Dis-E. The latter has lost not only U3 but all residual 90S factors including the GTPase Bms1. In vitro remodeling likewise induced the formation of the central pseudoknot, a universally conserved tertiary RNA structure that comprises the core of the small subunit decoding center. Thus, we could structurally reveal a key tertiary RNA folding step that is essential to form the active 40S subunit. |
