Authors: Franziska Wiechert / Anett Unbehaun / Thiemo Sprink / Helena Seibel / Jörg Bürger / Justus Loerke / Thorsten Mielke / Christoph A Diebolder / Magdalena Schacherl / Christian M T Spahn / Abstract: Chemical modifications of ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) and proteins expand their topological repertoire, and together with the plethora of bound ligands, fine-tune ribosomal function. Detailed knowledge of ...Chemical modifications of ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) and proteins expand their topological repertoire, and together with the plethora of bound ligands, fine-tune ribosomal function. Detailed knowledge of this natural composition provides important insights into ribosome genesis and function and clarifies some aspects of ribosomopathies. The discovery of new structural properties and functional aspects of ribosomes has gone hand in hand with cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) and its technological development. In line with the ability to visualize atomic details - a prerequisite for identifying chemical modifications and ligands in cryo-EM maps - in this work we present the structure of the 60S ribosomal subunit from HeLa cells at the very high global resolution of 1.78 Å. We identified 113 rRNA modifications and four protein modifications including uL2-Hisβ-ox216, which stabilizes the local structure near the peptidyl transferase centre via an extended hydrogen-bonding network. We can differentiate metal ions Mg2+ and K+, polyamines spermine, spermidine and putrescine and identify thousands of water molecules binding to the 60S subunit. Approaching atomic resolution cryo-EM has become a powerful tool to examine fine details of macromolecular structures that will expand our knowledge about translation and other biological processes in the future and assess the variability of the chemical space due to differences between species/tissues or varying physicochemical environment.

Details
Hela 60S ribosomal subunits were isolated from cytoplasmic extracts of Hela cells, involving puromycin treatment and sucrose gradient centrifugation in high salt. The gradients were manually fractionated, and separated peak fractions of 60S subunits were collected. For buffer exchange, the sample was diluted 6 x in buffer F (20 mM HEPES pH7.5, 10 mM KCl, 2 mM MgCl2, 2 mM DTT) supplemented with 8.56 % sucrose to adjust the sucrose in the storage buffer to 12%, respectively. Finally, the 60S subunit suspension was concentrated on Amicon Ultracel filter units with a 10 kDa cutoff (Merck Millipore) was snap frozen in 10 ul aliquots and stored at -80 degrees Celsius. Concentrated Hela 60S ribosomal subunits were diluted to 200 nM in buffer E (20 mM HEPES pH7.5, 2 mM MgCl2, 90 mM KCl, 0.5 mM Spermidine, 0.04 mM Spermine, 2 mM DTT) and 4 ul were spotted onto glow-discharged holey carbon grids coated with a continuous thin carbon film (Quantifoil Cu200 R2/2+) and incubated for 40 sec at 4 degrees CelsiusC, 85% RH. The excess of liquid was blotted away for 2 sec and the grids were plunge frozen using the Vitrobot Mark IV (Thermo Fischer Scientific).

Details
Interactive model building was performed in Coot using an auto sharpened map in cryoSPARC and additionally a low-pass-filtered map to 4 Angstrom for the more mobile regions of the 60S structure. Each residue of the model was checked individually for modifications and adjusted manually with a subsequent refinement in phenix.refine. Polyamines and metals were added while searching for unmodelled blobs in Coot. Water molecules were added using phenix.douse and visually validated in Coot. The model was validated using Molprobity.

EMDB accession codes are about to change! (news from PDBe EMDB page)
The allocation of 4 digits for EMDB accession codes will soon come to an end. Whilst these codes will remain in use, new EMDB accession codes will include an additional digit and will expand incrementally as the available range of codes is exhausted. The current 4-digit format prefixed with “EMD-” (i.e. EMD-XXXX) will advance to a 5-digit format (i.e. EMD-XXXXX), and so on. It is currently estimated that the 4-digit codes will be depleted around Spring 2019, at which point the 5-digit format will come into force.
The EM Navigator/Yorodumi systems omit the EMD- prefix.

Yorodumi is a browser for structure data from EMDB, PDB, SASBDB, etc.
This page is also the successor to EM Navigator detail page, and also detail information page/front-end page for Omokage search.
The word "yorodu" (or yorozu) is an old Japanese word meaning "ten thousand". "mi" (miru) is to see.
