Published: January 2025

The development of ribosome profiling (Ribo-seq) by Ingolia et al. introduced a powerful new method for monitoring translation genome-wide. Application of Ribo-seq across multiple organisms has since revealed thousands of unannotated translated small open reading frames (ORFs) and enhanced efforts to study their encoded proteins, called microproteins.

Human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) uses a number of strategies to modulate viral and host gene expression during its life cycle. To characterize the transcriptional and translational landscape of HIV-1 infected cells, we used a combination of ribosome profiling, disome sequencing and RNA sequencing. We show that HIV-1 messenger RNAs are efficiently translated at all stages of infection, despite evidence for a substantial decrease in the translational efficiency of host genes that are implicated in host cell translation.

T cell-based immunotherapies targeting antigens on tumor cells have shown efficacy as anti-cancer treatments. While neoantigens are created by somatic mutations acquired during tumorigenesis, allogeneic stem cell transplantation as treatment for hematological malignancies exploits minor histocompatibility antigens encoded by genetic differences between patients and donors. Screening methods to predict neoantigens and minor histocompatibility antigens typically consider only conventional antigens created by nonsynonymous mutations or polymorphisms coding for amino acid changes in canonical open reading frames (ORFs).

Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome is a systemic infectious disease caused by human immunodeficiency virus infection, which could attack the bones and heart. However, the relationship between Nuclear Complex Associated 3 Homolog (NOC3L) and DEAD box helicase 17 (DDX17) and acquired immunodeficiency complicated with viral myocarditis and osteoporosis is unclear. The acquired immune deficiency dataset GSE140713, GSE147162 and the osteoporosis dataset (GSE230665), and viral myocarditis dataset (GSE150392) configuration files were generated from gene expression omnibus.

Cell proliferation is a fundamental characteristic of organisms, driven by the holistic functions of multiple proteins encoded in the genome. However, the individual contributions of thousands of genes and the millions of protein molecules they express to cell proliferation are still not fully understood, even in simple eukaryotes. Here, we present a genome-wide translation map of cells during proliferation in the unicellular alga Cyanidioschyzon merolae, based on the sequencing of ribosome-protected messenger RNA fragments.
