In addition to providing an overview of the process, recent advances in our understanding of the role of the factor eIF5A in both translation elongation and termination are discussed. We also highlight mechanisms of translation recoding with a focus on ribo- somal frameshifting during elongation. We see that the balance between the basic steps in elongation and the less common recoding events is determined by the kinetics of the different processes as well as by specific sequence determinants.

Model of the eukaryotic translation elongation pathway. At the top, an eEF1A•GTP•aminoacyl-tRNA (transfer RNA) ternary complex binds to the A (aminoacyl) site of an 80S ribosome with the anticodon loop of the tRNA in contact with the messenger RNA (mRNA). Following GTP hydrolysis and release of an eEF1A•GDP binary complex, the aminoacyl-tRNA is accommodated into the A site, and the eEF1A•GDP is recycled to eEF1A•GTP by the exchange factor eEF1B. During catalysis of peptide bond formation, the A- and P (pep- tidyl)-site tRNAs shift into hybrid states with the acceptor ends of the tRNAs moving to the P and E sites, respectively. Substrate positioning for peptide bond formation is aided by binding of the factor eIF5A and its hypusine modification (green) in the E site. Following peptide bond formation, the factor eEF2•GTP with its diphthamide modification (magenta) binds in the A site and promotes translocation of the tRNAs into the canonical P and E sites. Following release of the deacylated tRNA from the E site, the next cycle of elongation commences with binding of the appropriate eEF1A•GTP•aminoacyl-tRNA to the A site. Throughout, GTP is depicted as a green ball and GDP as a red ball; also, the large ribosomal subunit (light blue) is displayed transparently to enable visualization of the tRNAs, factors, and mRNA bound to the decoding center at the interface between the large and small subunits and of tRNAs, interacting with the peptidyl transferase center in the large subunit.

    The Gabriella Miller Kids First Pediatric Research Program (Kids First) Poster Session at ASHG Accelerating Pediatric Genomics Research through Collaboration October 15th, 2019 Background The Gabriella Miller Kids First Pediatric Research Program (Kids First) is a trans- NIH Common Fund program initiated in response to the 2014 Gabriella Miller Kids First Research Act. The program’s vision is to alleviate suffering from childhood cancer and structural birth defects by fostering collaborative research to uncover the etiology of these diseases and support data sharing within the pediatric research community. This is implemented through developing the Gabriella Miller Kids First Data Resource (Kids First Data Resource) and populating this resource with whole genome sequence datasets and associated clinical and phenotypic information. Both childhood cancers and structural birth defects are critical and costly conditions associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. Elucidating the underlying genetic etiology of these diseases has the potential to profoundly improve preventative measures, diagnostics, and therapeutic interventions. Purpose During this evening poster session, attendees will gain a broad understanding of the utility of the genomic data generated by Kids First, learn about the progress of Kids First X01 cohort projects, and observe demonstrations of the tools and functionalities of the recently launched Kids First Data Resource Portal. The session is an opportunity for the scientific community and public to engage with Kids First investigators, collaborators, and a growing community of researchers, patient foundations, and families. Several other NIH and external data efforts will present posters and be available to discuss collaboration opportunities as we work together to accelerate pediatric research.

Received: 14 March 2013; in revised form: 17 April 2013 / Accepted: 26 April 2013 / Published: 3 May 2013 Abstract: Diphtheria toxin (DT) inhibits eukaryotic translation elongation factor 2 (eEF2) by ADP-ribosylation in a fashion that requires diphthamide, a modified histidine residue on eEF2. In budding yeast, diphthamide formation involves seven genes, DPH1-DPH7. In an effort to further study diphthamide synthesis and interrelation among the Dph proteins, we found, by expression in E. coli and co-immune precipitation in yeast, that Dph1 and Dph2 interact and that they form a complex with Dph3. Protein-protein interaction mapping shows that Dph1-Dph3 complex formation can be dissected by progressive DPH1 gene truncations. This identifies N- and C-terminal domains on Dph1 that are crucial for diphthamide synthesis, DT action and cytotoxicity of sordarin, another microbial eEF2 inhibitor.

Building the vertebrate codex using the gene breaking protein trap library Abstract One key bottleneck in understanding the human genome is the relative under-characterization of 90% of protein coding regions. We report a collection of 1200 transgenic zebrafish strains made with the gene- break transposon (GBT) protein trap to simultaneously report and reversibly knockdown the tagged genes. Protein trap-associated mRFP expression shows previously undocumented expression of 35% and 90% of cloned genes at 2 and 4 days post-fertilization, respectively. Further, investigated alleles regularly show 99% gene-specific mRNA knockdown.

ABSTRACT Metastatic colonization, whereby a disseminated tumor cell is able to survive and proliferate at a KEYWORDS secondary site, involves both tumor cell-intrinsic and -extrinsic factors. To identify tumor cell-extrinsic metastasis (microenvironmental) factors that regulate the ability of metastatic tumor cells to effectively colonize a metastatic tissue, we performed a genome-wide screen utilizing the experimental metastasis assay on mutant mice. colonisation Mutant and wildtype (control) mice were tail vein-dosed with murine metastatic melanoma B16-F10 cells and microenvironment 10 days later the number of pulmonary metastatic colonies were counted. Of the 1,300 genes/genetic B16-F10 locations (1,344 alleles) assessed in the screen 34 genes were determined to significantly regulate pulmonary lung metastatic colonization (15 increased and 19 decreased; P , 0.005 and genotype effect ,-55 or .+55). mutant While several of these genes have known roles in immune system regulation (Bach2, Cyba, Cybb, Cybc1, Id2, mouse Igh-6, Irf1, Irf7, Ncf1, Ncf2, Ncf4 and Pik3cg) most are involved in a disparate range of biological processes, ranging from ubiquitination (Herc1) to diphthamide synthesis (Dph6) to Rho GTPase-activation (Arhgap30 and Fgd4), with no previous reports of a role in the regulation of metastasis.

To validate this approach, we first analyzed the for the last step of diphthamide biosynthesis. We found that yeast cofitness data of Δybr246w strain, which has high cofitness value protein YLR143W is the diphthamide synthetase catalyzing the last with Δdph2 (0.59624, ranked #3), Δdph4 (0.55343, ranked #7), amidation step using ammonium and ATP. Diphthamide synthetase and Δdph5 (0.57422, ranked #5) strains (Fig. 2A). DPH3 is is evolutionarily conserved in eukaryotes. The previously uncharac- a fairly small ORF (249 bp) and was not included in the original terized human gene ATPBD4 is the ortholog of yeast YLR143W and deletion strain collections.
