A dinitrophenyl hapten capable of protein SH-group modification was synthesized and the specificity of its reaction with SH-groups of the E. coli ribosomal proteins was studied. The possibility of incorporation of the Dnp-modified protein into ribosomal subunits by in vitro reconstitution was demonstrated with the ribosomal protein S12. The Dnp-hapten attached to the protein S12 was found to be accessible for interaction with the Dnp-specific antibodies and therefore to be exposed on the surface of the reconstituted 30S subunit. Thus, the approach for incorporation of the antigenic groups into the protein components of supramolecular structures was proposed.

Human L35a ribosomal protein (RPL35A) has been reported to confer higher drug resistance and viability to triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells, but the mechanism related to its promotion of TNBC malignant progression is still unclear. Here, we found that silencing of RPL35A could inhibit the proliferation of TNBC cells by suppressing the G1/S phase transition. Furthermore, SMAD-specific E3 ubiquitin protein ligase 2 (Smurf2) was found to be a potential upstream ubiquitin ligase of RPL35A.

The increasing availability of microbial genomes is essential to gain insights into microbial ecology and evolution that can propel biotechnological and biomedical advances. Recent advances in genome recovery have significantly expanded the catalogue of microbial genomes from diverse habitats. However, the ability to explain how well a set of genomes account for the diversity in a given environment remains challenging for individual studies or biome-specific databases.

elements are primate-specific retrotransposon sequences that comprise ∼11% of human genomic DNA. sequences contain an internal RNA polymerase III promoter and the resultant RNA transcripts mobilize by a replicative process termed retrotransposition. retrotransposition requires the Long INterspersed Element-1 (LINE-1) open reading frame 2-encoded protein (ORF2p).

NOC1, NOC2, and NOC3 are conserved nucleolar proteins essential for regulating ribosomal RNA (rRNA) maturation, a process critical for cellular homeostasis. NOC1, in and yeast, enhances nucleolar activity to sustain rRNA processing, whereas its depletion leads to impaired polysome formation, reduced protein synthesis, and apoptosis. These genes have vertebrate homologs called CEBPZ, NOC2L, and NOC3l.
