The presence of mL65 (MRPS30) on the 39S subunit is unexpected, as it was initially identified as a protein of the small mitoribosomal subunit 59. However, our assignment based on the inspection of the well-resolved amino acid side chains in the cryo-EM density was unambiguous (Extended Data Fig. 5d) and further independently confirmed by CX-MS crosslinks between mL65 (MRPS30) and mL37, as well as crosslinks between mL65 (MRPS30) and other mitoribosomal proteins in its immediate vicinity (Extended Data Fig. 5e, f; Extended Data Table 1). Interestingly, mutations leading to altered expression of mL65 (MRPS30) have been linked to breast cancer susceptibility 62. Whether these effects are connected to the mitoribosomal functions of mL65 (MRPS30) or to an extra- ribosomal role of this protein remains to be established. Three bS18 homologs (A, B, and C) occur in mammalian mitochondria, and all of them were assigned as small subunit proteins based on mass- spectrometry experiments 63. However, analysis of a region of density near the L7/L12 stalk revealed a bS18-like fold, and the corresponding protein was unambiguously identified as mL66 (MRPS18A) based on side chain features and total chain length (Extended Data Fig. 5g, h). Therefore, mL66 (MRPS18A) has likely evolved to become a large subunit protein, while mS18B and mS18C may constitute components of the small mitoribosomal subunit. mL66 (MRPS18A) binds to the L7/L12 stalk base (Extended Data Figs. 5g, l) and may help stabilizing the rRNA in this region, as the rRNA connecting the L7/L12 stalk base to the subunit body has been remodeled compared to bacterial ribosomes. Given their previous assignment as small subunit proteins, we sought to establish whether mL65 (MRPS30) and mL66 (MRPS18A) occur in both the small and large mitoribosomal subunits or in the large subunit only. A label- free semi-quantitative analysis 45,46 of our mass spectrometry data indicates that both mL65 (MRPS30) and mL66 (MRPS18A) are present in equal abundance relative to most other mitoribosomal proteins, suggesting that their copy number in the 55S mitoribosome is one (Extended Data Fig. 5i). We therefore suggest the names mL65 and mL66 for MRPS30 and MRPS18A, respectively, to indicate that they are components of the 39S subunit. Insights into Mitoribosome Evolution We previously showed that mL44 and mL39, two mitoribosomal proteins with homology to RNA binding enzymes - RNase III 64 and threonyl-tRNA synthetase 65, respectively - bind to the 39S subunit via protein-protein interactions, leaving their former RNA-binding surfaces solvent-exposed 6 (Extended Data Fig. 9a). mL44 also occurs in the yeast 54S mitoribosomal large subunit, where it binds to an rRNA expansion segment that is located nearby, together with mL57, a second RNase III homolog 5 (Extended Data Fig. 9b). This suggests that during evolution of the mitoribosome, both mL39 and mL44 initially bound to rRNA expansion segments and have been retained in the 39S subunit even though these rRNA segments have been lost in mammals (Extended Data Fig. 9c). This indicates that early in mitoribosomal evolution, expansion segments in the rRNA evolved, and novel proteins were recruited, resulting in expanded mitoribosomes, as exemplified by the yeast mitoribosome. Subsequently, during the evolution of higher eukaryotes, and mammals in particular, the mitoribosomal rRNAs were dramatically shortened, while previously acquired mitoribosomal specific proteins were retained, and the recruitment and expansion of mitoribosomal proteins continued, possibly in part to architecturally compensate for the loss of rRNA 6,66,67. The reduction of the mitochondrial genome may also have led to the dual use of a tRNA as an adaptor molecule during mitochondrial protein synthesis and as a structural component of the mitoribosome.
