Membrane-bound and free polysomes from murine liver and kidney were isolated under identical conditions and their ribosomal proteins were compared by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. The results demonstrate that these ribosome subpopulations are quantitatively and qualitatively similar except for the presence of one additional protein in the kidney-bound polysomal fraction.

Decoding Codon Bias: The Role of tRNA Modifications in Tissue-Specific Translation.
Int J Mol Sci
January 2025
Department of Neurosurgical Engineering and Translational Neuroscience, Graduate School of Medicine, Tohoku University, Sendai 980-8575, Japan.
Article Synopsis
- The tRNA epitranscriptome plays a crucial role in regulating mRNA translation, but our understanding of its tissue-specific functions is limited.
- Analyzing seven mouse tissues revealed unique patterns of tRNA modifications, with queuosine (Q) being prominent in the brain and mitochondrial modifications in the heart.
- By testing a codon-mutated EGFP, researchers found that protein levels varied based on tissue type, highlighting the potential for tailoring gene therapies to enhance their effectiveness in specific tissues or conditions.
Determination of Stable Reference Genes for Gene Expression Analysis in Black Rockfish () Under Hypoxia Stress.
Genes (Basel)
December 2024
Yellow Sea Fisheries Research Institute, Chinese Academy of Fishery Sciences, Qingdao 266071, China.
Background: Hypoxia triggers stress, leading to significant alterations in gene expression patterns, which in turn affect fish's growth and development. Real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) is a pivotal technique for assessing changes in gene expression. However, its accuracy is highly contingent upon the stable expression of reference genes.

Understanding the change in plant-associated microbial diversity and secondary metabolite biosynthesis in medicinal plants due to their cultivation in non-natural habitat (NNH) is important to maintain their therapeutic importance. Here, the bacterial endomicrobiome of Podophyllum hexandrum plants of natural habitat (NH; Kardang and Triloknath locations) and NNH (Palampur location) was identified and its association with the biosynthesis of podophyllotoxin (PTOX) was revealed. Rhizomes (source of PTOX) of plants of NH had highest endophytic bacterial diversity compared to NNH-plants.

The heart employs a specialized ribosome in its muscle cells to translate genetic information into proteins, a fundamental adaptation with an elusive physiological role. Its significance is underscored by the discovery of neonatal patients suffering from often fatal heart failure caused by rare compound heterozygous variants in RPL3L, a muscle-specific ribosomal protein that replaces the ubiquitous RPL3 in cardiac ribosomes. -linked heart failure represents the only known human disease arising from mutations in tissue-specific ribosomes, yet the underlying pathogenetic mechanisms remain poorly understood despite an increasing number of reported cases.

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have emerged as a large class of stable and conserved RNAs that are derived primarily from back-splicing of pre-mRNAs and expressed in a cell- and tissue-specific fashion. Recent studies have indicated that a subset of circRNAs may undergo translation through cap-independent pathways mediated by internal ribosome entry sites (IRESs), m6A modifications, or IRES-like short elements. Considering the stability and low immunogenicity of circRNAs, transcribed circRNAs hold great promise in biomedical applications.
