Journal: Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A / Year: 2020 Title: Loss of a single methylation in 23S rRNA delays 50S assembly at multiple late stages and impairs translation initiation and elongation. Authors: Wei Wang / Wanqiu Li / Xueliang Ge / Kaige Yan / Chandra Sekhar Mandava / Suparna Sanyal / Ning Gao / Abstract: Ribosome biogenesis is a complex process, and dozens of factors are required to facilitate and regulate the subunit assembly in bacteria. The 2'-O-methylation of U2552 in 23S rRNA by ...Ribosome biogenesis is a complex process, and dozens of factors are required to facilitate and regulate the subunit assembly in bacteria. The 2'-O-methylation of U2552 in 23S rRNA by methyltransferase RrmJ is a crucial step in late-stage assembly of the 50S subunit. Its absence results in severe growth defect and marked accumulation of pre50S assembly intermediates. In the present work, we employed cryoelectron microscopy to characterize a set of late-stage pre50S particles isolated from an Δ strain. These assembly intermediates (solved at 3.2 to 3.8 Å resolution) define a collection of late-stage particles on a progressive assembly pathway. Apart from the absence of L16, L35, and L36, major structural differences between these intermediates and the mature 50S subunit are clustered near the peptidyl transferase center, such as H38, H68-71, and H89-93. In addition, the ribosomal A-loop of the mature 50S subunit from Δ strain displays large local flexibility on nucleotides next to unmethylated U2552. Fast kinetics-based biochemical assays demonstrate that the Δ 50S subunit is only 50% active and two times slower than the WT 50S subunit in rapid subunit association. While the Δ 70S ribosomes show no defect in peptide bond formation, peptide release, and ribosome recycling, they translocate with 20% slower rate than the WT ribosomes in each round of elongation. These defects amplify during synthesis of the full-length proteins and cause overall defect in protein synthesis. In conclusion, our data reveal the molecular roles of U2552 methylation in both ribosome biogenesis and protein translation.

In the structure databanks used in Yorodumi, some data are registered as the other names, "COVID-19 virus" and "2019-nCoV". Here are the details of the virus and the list of structure data.

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.
