"Wobble hypothesis"
|
-can occur at the 5' anticon to the 3' condon
-tRNA anticodon can pair with up to 3 differnet codons for the same amino acid A-U or I G-C or U C-G or I U-A or I or G |

changes in amino acid sequence

|
insertion or deletion of a single nucelotide.

eIF2a
|
binds to GTP and met-tRNA^met
formoning a ternary complex -causes association w/ IF3 and blocks 6o s association (antissociation) |
|
EF-1a
|
correct aminoacyl-tRNA is enhanced
-EF-1a, EF-1, first form a tenary complex w/ aminoacyl-tRNA and GTP. -The EF-1a-aminoacyl-tRNA-GTP complex binds to the ribosomeand if the codon/anticodn are correct, the aminoacyl-tRNA is placed at the A-site, GTP is hydrolized, and EF-1a GDP complex dissociates. |
|
EF-2
|
translocase
-move the mRNA and dipeptidyl-tRNA in the anticodon-codon register, from the 40s (A site) to the (P site). -GTP is hydrolyzed -A site vacant -Dipeptidyl-t-RNA moves to the (P site), the deacylated donor (methionine) tRNA also moves to the (E site) on the 60S |
|
A-site
|
aminoacyl-tRNA specified by the next codon of the mRNA bond to acceptor, aminoacyl, or A site
|
|
P site
|
the initiating methionyl-tRNA is placed in position so that its methionyl residue can be transfered (or donated) to the free alpha group of the amino group of the incomming aminoacyl-tRNA.
donar, peptidyl or P site |
|
E site
|
anticodon of the deacylated tRNA remains in the 40S P site, and its acceptor end located in the 60s exit or E site.

Signal peptide
|
at or near the amino terminus
-positivly charged N-rgion -serves as a cleavage site for excision of a signal peptide. |
|
Carbo's used fro glycosylation
|
mannose
NANA GlcNAc galactose fucose |
|
N-linkage
|
amide nitrogen of asparagin
-specific sequence is required AsnXTHr -glycosylation rxn occurs "contranslationally" -dolichol phosphate- lipid attached to the ER where oligosaccharides are initially assembled. |
|
O-linked
|
hydroxyl serine or theronine
-occurs only on foilded proteins -no specific sequence necessary -residues must be on the protein surface |
|
target proteins to mitochondria
|
-syn in the cytosol as prepproteins
-N-terminal seq have a (+) charged amphilillic alpha-helix theat is recognized by mitochondria receptor. -proteins transported across the membrane in the unfolded state w/ the help of chaperones. - translocation across the membrane requires energy -protease removes the matrix targeted protein |
|
to nucleus
|
nuclear translocation signal includ a cluster of basic aa
-carrier proteins (importins) mediate transport through cylindrial nuclear pore complex |
|
target proteins to more an one place
|
-suboptimal location signal can lead to dual location
-gene duplication resultin in similar gene products w/ different targeting sequences.-alternative splicing of mRNAs -alternative translocation initiation. |
|
Posttranscriptional
RNA degradation |
half-life varry from min. to hrs
-poly-a tail and cap -PABP-binding protein protects mRNA from degradation. -deadenylases-progressive removal of poly-A tail -decapping enzyme removes 5' cap when the tail is < 10 nucleotides long. |
|
Posttranscriptional
RNA interferance |
DsRNA can lead to sequence-specific degradation of homologous mRNA sequence.
|
|
Posttranscriptional
control of translation initation |
under control nutrient starvation, heat shock, or viral infection, eIF2a is phosphorylated and binds elF2a tightly making it unavailable fro initation.
