Ribosome Assembly
• 48S Initiation complex
– Scans along mRNA for AUG
– eIF5: eIF2 GAP
– eIF5B: recruits 60S subunit
• GTP hydrolysis displaces eIF5B
• 60S subunit
– Aminoacyl, peptidyl, exit docking sites
– P site initially occupied by t-Met
Elongation
• eEF1:tRNA recruitment
• eEF2 procession
(note: edited from text)
Elongation
• eEF1a (bacterial EF-Tu)
– GTP dependent
– Recruits aa-tRNA to A site
• P-protein bound to A-amino acid
– Transitional tRNA state
• eEF2 (bacterial EF-G)
– GTP dependent
– Displaces A-tRNA
• Ribosomal Release Factor (rRF)
eEF1 Function
• eEF1A: codon independent association
• Stabilized by codon recognition
– Triggers GTP hydrolysis
– 60S nuclease center
– eEF1 release as eEF1:GDP
• Codon hybridization
• Peptide binding
Translational accuracy
• AA-tRNA synthesis
• Codon matching
– Structural amplification
– 1 Å accuracy
2.5 Å H-bonds

Termination
• eRF3
– eRF1 GAP
– Dissociation of eRF1 by activating GTPase

Post-translational Processing
• Folding
– Chaperone proteins
– Endoplasmic reticulum
• Trafficking
– Subcellular localization
– Targeting signals
Protein folding
• Energy minimization
– Hydrophobic domains
– Charge balance
– Metallic complexes
• Ribosome holds ~40
residues denatured
• Spontaneous folding
• Assisted folding
Protein folding may be a
stochastic search for the lowest
energy configuration
Molecular Chaperones
• Heat Shock Proteins (HSP)
– HSP70 binds short hydrophobic chains
– Delay folding
– Prevent aggregation
• Chaperonins
– Receive HSP complexes
– Shield larger molecules during complex folding
Subcellular trafficking
• Posttranslational targeting to organelles
• Cotranslational targeting to compartments
– ER/Golgi
– Signal sequence (Start/Stop)
– Translocon
Glycosylation
• Co-translational addition of oligosaccharides
– ER
– Extracellular or membrane bound
