when is ribosome rescue needed
no stop codon
truncated or broken mRNA
ribosomes reach the end of mRNA without encountering a stop codon
arrested ribosomes- stalled
bacterial translation initiation in truncated or full length mRNA
bacteria does not discriminate so we cant not start bc it is truncated
eukaryotes translation initiation in truncated or full length mRNA
only starts in intact mRNA but it can break after succesful initiation or mau not contain a stop codon due to faulty splicing
3 general events triggered by arrested ribosomes
mRNA decay
protein proteolysis
ribosome recycling
what solves stalled ribosomes in BACTERIA
special RNA with proterites of tRNA and mRNA
tmRNA
what are the other names of tmRNA
SsrA and 10Sa RNA
what does tmRNA do
functions as mRNA by ancoding 10-11 aa peptide
functions like tRNA and can charged with alalnine by AlaRS
what does tmRNA function with
SmpB
together they look like tRNA molecule- molecular mimmickry
what binds to a stalled ribosomes
SmpB, ananyl-tmRNA, and EFTu GTP
what does SmpB, ananyl-tmRNA, and EFTu GTP do in a stalled riboosme
nacsent polypeptide is trnasferred to the alanine on tmRNA
translation switches from original message to a short tmRNA ORF that decodes a degradation tag
how is the tagged polypeptide released for degradation
by translation of the ORF nad normal termination
what is attatched tot he peptide
the translatioed 10-11 anino acid tag which is the short ORF from tmRNA marking the peptide for degradation
what is a common bacterial tmRNA tag
ANDENYALAA
what are backup ways bacteria have for resuceing arrested ribosomes
ArfA binds and essentially mimmicks a stop codon so that RF2 binds and releases the peptide
ArfB may releae the peptide directly
what are the ways that tarnslation assocaited mRNA quality control pathways detecting aberrent translation events and degrade the faulty mRNAs
nonsense emdiated mRNA decay (NMD)
non stop decay (NSD)
no go decay (NGD)
targets mRNAs containing premature stop codons
nonsesnse mediated mRNA decay
targets mRNAs lacking a stop codon (premature polyadenylation)
non stop decay
targets mRNAs with stalled ribosomes
no go decay
ribosome assocatied quality contol
non stop and no go decay
how are ribosome associted quality control activated
by the precense of stalled ribosomes
what is used in nonsense mediated decay
EJCs
Upf1
Upf2
Upf3
eERF3
what is used in ribosome associated quality cotnrol pathwys
pelota (eRF1) and Hbs1(eERF3)
what are pelota (eRF1) and Hbs1(eERF3) do
termination factor homologues that rescue stalled ribosomes
