In three domains of life, proteins are synthesized by large ribonucleoprotein particles called
ribosomes. All ribosomes are composed of ribosomal RNAs (rRNA) and numerous …

In recent years, many endeavours have been prompted with photocatalytic nanomaterials by
the need to eradicate pathogenic microorganisms from water bodies. Herein, a tocopherol …

In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, more than 250 trans-acting factors are involved in the
maturation of 40S and 60S ribosomal subunits. The expression of most of these factors is …

Modification of outer membrane proteins (OMPs) is the first line of Gram-negative bacteria
defence against antimicrobials. Here we point to Proteus mirabilis OMPs and their role in …

Ribosomal proteins have important roles in maintaining the structure and function of mature
ribosomes, but they also drive crucial rearrangement reactions during ribosome biogenesis …

Oysters can hyper-accumulate copper (Cu) without apparent toxicity, but the mechanism of
sequestering excessive cytosolic Cu in oysters remains unclear. We here investigated the …

An extensive mutational analysis of RPL33A, encoding the yeast ribosomal protein L33A
(eL33) allowed us to identify several novel rpl33a mutants with different translational …

Ribosome assembly factors have been extensively studied in yeast, and their abnormalities
may affect the assembly process of ribosomes and cause severe damage to cells. However …

In yeast and human cells many of the ribosomal proteins (r-proteins) are required for the
stabilisation and productive processing of rRNA precursors. Functional coupling of r-protein …

The receptor for activated c-kinase (RACK1, Asc1 in yeast) is a eukaryotic ribosomal protein
located in the head region of the 40S subunit near the mRNA exit channel. This WD-repeat β …
