Mouse Hdgf Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) https://www.alphaknockout.com Mouse Hdgf Knockout Project (CRISPR/Cas9) Objective: To create a Hdgf knockout Mouse model (C57BL/6J) by CRISPR/Cas-mediated genome engineering. Strategy summary: The Hdgf gene (NCBI Reference Sequence: NM_008231 ; Ensembl: ENSMUSG00000004897 ) is located on Mouse chromosome 3. 6 exons are identified, with the ATG start codon in exon 1 and the TAG stop codon in exon 6 (Transcript: ENSMUST00000005017). Exon 1~6 will be selected as target site. Cas9 and gRNA will be co-injected into fertilized eggs for KO Mouse production. The pups will be genotyped by PCR followed by sequencing analysis. Note: Mice homozygous for a targeted disruption of this gene are viable and fertile and display no major morphological, biochemical or behavioral phenotypes except for a significant reduction in rearing activity. Exon 1 starts from about 0.14% of the coding region. Exon 1~6 covers 100.0% of the coding region. The size of effective KO region: ~8278 bp. The KO region does not have any other known gene.

  • Effects of Single Amino Acid Deficiency on Mrna Translation Are Markedly
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Efects of single amino acid defciency on mRNA translation are markedly diferent for methionine Received: 12 December 2016 Accepted: 4 May 2018 versus leucine Published: xx xx xxxx Kevin M. Mazor, Leiming Dong, Yuanhui Mao, Robert V. Swanda, Shu-Bing Qian & Martha H. Stipanuk Although amino acids are known regulators of translation, the unique contributions of specifc amino acids are not well understood. We compared efects of culturing HEK293T cells in medium lacking either leucine, methionine, histidine, or arginine on eIF2 and 4EBP1 phosphorylation and measures of mRNA translation. Methionine starvation caused the most drastic decrease in translation as assessed by polysome formation, ribosome profling, and a measure of protein synthesis (puromycin-labeled polypeptides) but had no signifcant efect on eIF2 phosphorylation, 4EBP1 hyperphosphorylation or 4EBP1 binding to eIF4E. Leucine starvation suppressed polysome formation and was the only tested condition that caused a signifcant decrease in 4EBP1 phosphorylation or increase in 4EBP1 binding to eIF4E, but efects of leucine starvation were not replicated by overexpressing nonphosphorylatable 4EBP1. This suggests the binding of 4EBP1 to eIF4E may not by itself explain the suppression of mRNA translation under conditions of leucine starvation. Ribosome profling suggested that leucine deprivation may primarily inhibit ribosome loading, whereas methionine deprivation may primarily impair start site recognition. These data underscore our lack of a full

Ef-G:trna Dynamics During the Elongation Cycle of Protein Synthesis Abstract During polypeptide elongation cycle, prokaryotic elongation factor G (EF-G) catalyzes the coupled translocations on the ribosome of mRNA and A- and P-site bound tRNAs. Continued progress has been achieved in understanding this key process, including results of structural, ensemble kinetic and single- molecule studies. However, most of work has been focused on the pre-equilibrium states of this fast process, leaving the real time dynamics, especially how EF-G interacts with the A-site tRNA in the pretranslocation complex, not fully elucidated. In this thesis, the kinetics of EF-G catalyzed translocation is investigated by both ensemble and single molecule fluorescence resonance energy transfer studies to further explore the underlying mechanism. In the ensemble work, EF-G mutants were designed and expressed successfully. The labeled EF-G mutants show good translocation activity in two different assays. In the smFRET work, by attachment of a fluorescent probe at position 693 on EF-G permits monitoring of FRET efficiencies to sites in both ribosomal protein L11 and A-site tRNA.

ABSTRACT Our understanding of translation is one cornerstone of molecular biology that underpins our capacity to engineer living matter. The canonical start codon (AUG) and a few near-cognates (GUG, UUG) are typically considered as the “start codons” for translation initiation in Escherichia coli (E. coli). Translation is typically not thought to initiate from the 61 remaining codons. Here, we systematically quantified translation initiation in E. coli from all 64 triplet codons. We detected protein synthesis above background initiating from at least 46 codons. Translation initiated from these non-canonical start codons at levels ranging from 0.01% to 2% relative to AUG.

  • Genes Preferring Non-AUG Start Codons in Bacteria Abstract
    Genes Preferring Non-AUG Start Codons in Bacteria 1,2 2,3,4 Anne Gvozdjak ​ and Manoj P. Samanta ​ ​ 1. Bellevue High School, 10416 SE Wolverine Way, Bellevue, WA 98004 2. Coding for Life Science, Redmond, WA 98053 3. Systemix Institute, Redmond, WA 98053 4. [email protected] Abstract Here we investigate translational regulation in bacteria by analyzing the distribution of start codons in fully assembled genomes. We report 36 genes (infC, rpoC, rnpA, etc.) showing a preference for non-AUG start codons in evolutionarily diverse phyla (“non-AUG genes”). Most of the non-AUG genes are functionally associated with translation, transcription or replication. In E. ​ coli, the percentage of essential genes among these 36 is significantly higher than among all ​ genes. Furthermore, the functional distribution of these genes suggests that non-AUG start codons may be used to reduce gene expression during starvation conditions, possibly through translational autoregulation or IF3-mediated regulation. Introduction Understanding the regulation of gene expression at the transcriptional and translational levels is a key step in deciphering the information contained by genomes. Whereas inexpensive, high-throughput technologies (ChIP-seq, RNAseq) are helping in extensive experimental investigation of transcriptional regulation [1,2], the measurement of translational regulation using ​ ​ high-throughput mass spectroscopy [3] is less widely adopted. Bioinformatics provides another ​ avenue to leverage the rapidly falling cost of DNA sequencing to explore translational regulation. Prior to 2000, computational researchers identified a number of relevant patterns through the comparative analysis of gene sequences [4,5] . With the availability of ~250,000 ​ prokaryotic genomes, thousands of eukaryotic genomes, and additional metagenomic sequences, those patterns can now be studied at a significantly larger scale, and new patterns may also be identified.

AUG recognition provokes rearrangement from an open ognition (Fig. 1A). Consistent with this, structural analyses of PIC conformation with TC bound in a state not fully engaged with partial PICs reveal that eIF1 and eIF1A promote rotation of the “ ” the P site ( POUT ) to a closed, arrested conformation with TC tightly 40S head relative to the body (2, 3), thought to be instrumental bound in the “P ” state. Yeast ribosomal protein Rps3/uS3 resides IN in TC binding in the POUT conformation, but that eIF1 physically in the mRNA entry channel of the 40S subunit and contacts mRNA Met clashes with Met-tRNAi in the PIN state (2, 4), and is both via conserved residues whose functional importance was unknown.

  • Translation | Principles of Biology from Nature Education
    contents Principles of Biology 50 Translation Translation is the process by which a cell assembles proteins from the genetic code. The Rosetta stone. To translate from one language to another, you need a set of comparative rules that act as a template. The Rosetta stone is concrete evidence of how languages were first translated in early human cultures. By displaying the same story in different languages, it served as a template for comparison, a reference for how to get from one language to another. In cells, microscopic structures called ribosomes serve as key sites that support the translation of the mRNA language into the protein language. Archiv/Photo Researchers/Science Source. Topics Covered in this Module Translating DNA into Proteins Major Objectives of this Module Describe the molecular structures involved in translation. Explain the process of translation in detail. Explain how post-translational processes prepare proteins for their functions. page 256 of 989 3 pages left in this module contents Principles of Biology 50 Translation How does a genetic code with only four nucleotides provide the information needed to generate proteins containing up to 20 different amino acids? For this process to occur, many enzymes with specific structures and function are required. Translating DNA into Proteins Translation is the process of converting the information stored in mRNA into protein (Figure 1). Proteins are made up of a series of amino acids. With the help of adapter molecules called transfer RNAs (tRNAs) the appropriate amino acid is added for each set of three adjacent nucleotides in the mRNA, called a codon (Figure 2).

The protein is being synthesized in the amino to carboxy direction. For simplicity's sake, we will discuss in detail only prokaryotic translation. Before we proceed let's define two regions of the ribosome. P-site stands for Peptidyl-site. The P-site is the area of the ribosome that holds a tRNA that is attached to the growing polypeptide chain. A-site stands for Acceptor-site. The A-site is an area of the ribosome that accepts the next charged tRNA. A charged tRNA is attached to the amino acid that it encodes. P site A site The complete P and A sites are present only in the 70 ribosome. By itself, the 30S subunit has what we call a partial P-site and a partial A-site. 5' AUG GGG 3' page 6.1 Initiation Initiation is not a function of the complete ribosome but is undertaken by the separate subunits which assemble on the mRNA.

  • Fail-Safe Control of Translation Initiation by Dissociation of Eif2a
    RESEARCH ARTICLE Fail-safe control of translation initiation by dissociation of eIF2a phosphorylated ternary complexes Martin D Jennings1,2, Christopher J Kershaw1,2, Tomas Adomavicius1,2, Graham D Pavitt1,2* 1Division of Molecular and Cellular Function, Faculty of Biology Medicine and Health, The University of Manchester, Manchester, United Kingdom; 2Manchester Academic Health Science Centre, The University of Manchester, Manchester, United Kingdom Abstract Phosphorylation of eIF2a controls translation initiation by restricting the levels of active eIF2-GTP/Met-tRNAi ternary complexes (TC). This modulates the expression of all eukaryotic mRNAs and contributes to the cellular integrated stress response. Key to controlling the activity of eIF2 are translation factors eIF2B and eIF5, thought to primarily function with eIF2-GDP and TC respectively. Using a steady-state kinetics approach with purified proteins we demonstrate that eIF2B binds to eIF2 with equal affinity irrespective of the presence or absence of competing guanine nucleotides. We show that eIF2B can compete with Met-tRNAi for eIF2-GTP and can destabilize TC. When TC is formed with unphosphorylated eIF2, eIF5 can out-compete eIF2B to stabilize TC/eIF5 complexes. However when TC/eIF5 is formed with phosphorylated eIF2, eIF2B outcompetes eIF5 and destabilizes TC. These data uncover competition between eIF2B and eIF5 for TC and identify that phosphorylated eIF2-GTP translation initiation intermediate complexes can be inhibited by eIF2B.
