Abstract:
The interaction of biological macromolecules is a fundamental attribute of cellular life. Proteins, in particular, often form stable complexes with one another. Although the importance of protein complexes is widely recognized, we still have only a very limited understanding of the mechanisms underlying their assembly within cells. In this article, we review the available evidence for one such mechanism, namely the coupling of protein complex assembly to translation at the polysome. We discuss research showing that co-translational assembly can occur in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organism

Abstract:
Analyses of proteomes from a large number of organisms throughout the domains of life highlight the key role played by multiprotein complexes for the implementation of cellular function. While the occurrence of multiprotein assemblies is ubiquitous, the understanding of pathways that dictate the formation of quaternary structure remains enigmatic. Interestingly, there are now well-established examples of protein complexes that are assembled co-translationally in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes, and indications are that the phenomenon is widespread in cells.

The assembly of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) complexes is an intricate process, which—given their dual-genetic control—requires tight co-regulation of two evolutionarily distinct gene expression machineries. Moreover, fine-tuning protein synthesis to the nascent assembly of OXPHOS complexes requires regulatory mechanisms such as translational plasticity and translational activators that can coordinate mitochondrial translation with the import of nuclear-encoded mitochondrial proteins. The intricacy of OXPHOS complex biogenesis is further evidenced by the requirement of many

Apolipoprotein B100 (apoB) is a large amphipathic lipid-binding protein that is synthesized by hepatocytes and used to assemble and stabilize very low density lipoproteins (VLDL). It may have been derived through evolution from other lipid-associating proteins such as microsomal triglyceride transfer protein or vitellogenin. The correct folding of apoB requires assistance from chaperone proteins in co-translational lipidation, disulfide bond formation, and glycosylation. Any impairment in these processes results in co-translational targeting of the misfolded apoB molecule for proteasomal degra

At a fundamental level, it is believed that histone chaperones guide the assembly of nucleosomes through preventing non-productive charge-based aggregates between the basic histones and acidic cellular components.

Gap-junction channels provide a widespread intercellular signalling mechanism. They are constructed of a family of connexin membrane proteins that thread across the membrane four times and oligomerize to generate hexameric gap-junction hemichannels. Using an in vitro cell-free transcription/translation system, we demonstrate that connexin (Cx) 26, one of the smallest connexins, is integrated directly in a post-translational manner into plasma membranes. Protein-cleavage studies of Cx26 integrated into plasma membranes indicate a similar native transmembrane topography to that of Cx26 integrate

Abstract Background Chromosomal region maintenance (CRM1), also known as exportin 1 (XPO1) plays an important role in the nuclear-cytoplasmic shuttling. The nuclear export receptor, XPO1, is considered as a regulator of subcellular distribution of several proteins involved in the regulation of centrosome duplication such as nucleophosmin (NPM), breast and ovarian cancer susceptibility protein 1 (BRCA1) and many tumor suppressor proteins (p53, p21, FOXO and pRB). Furthermore, XPO1 is required for the export of assembled ribosomal subunits (60S & 40S) from the nucleolus back into the cytopla

Introduction: As an oncoprotein and a transcription factor, C-MYC has been extensively validated as a key driver in many cancers such as Diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL). C-MYC has been intensely investigated as a therapeutic target in preclinical models. However, no drugs have been successfully developed to target c-Myc, and the c-Myc oncoprotein has been recognized as undruggable. Recent data from our lab and others suggest that the translation of C-MYC and some other oncogenes may be preferentially repressed using inhibitors of the translation apparatus. Translation can be divided into

Abstract:
: The assembly and secretion of flaviviruses are part of an elegantly regulated process. During maturation, the viral polyprotein undergoes several co- and post-translational cleavage events mediated by both viral and host proteases. Among these, sequential cleavage at the N- and C-termini of the hydrophobic capsid anchor (Ca) at the junction of C-PrM has been considered essential for the production of flaviviruses. Here, using a refined dengue pseudovirus production system, we show that Ca plays a key role in the processing efficiency of dengue virus type 2 (DENV2) structural proteins and the

Abstract:
The microtubule-associated protein tau is a developmentally regulated family of neuronal phosphoproteins that promotes the assembly and stabilization of microtubules. The carboxy-terminal half of the protein contains three copies of an imperfectly repeated sequence; this region has been found to bind microtubules in vitro. In addition, a fourth copy of the repeat has been found in adult-specific forms of tau protein. To examine the structure and function of tau protein in vivo, we have transiently expressed fetal and adult forms of tau protein and tau protein fragments in tissue culture cells.

Herpes simplex virus-1 (HSV-1) is the causative agent of cold sores, keratitis, meningitis, and encephalitis. HSV-1-encoded ICP5, the major capsid protein, is essential for capsid assembly during viral replication.

Abstract:
The nucleolus organizes around the sites of transcription by RNA polymerase I (RNA Pol I). rDNA transcription by this enzyme is the key step of ribosome biogenesis and most of the assembly and maturation processes of the ribosome occur co-transcriptionally. Therefore, disturbances in rRNA transcription and processing translate to ribosomal malfunction. Nucleolar malfunction has recently been described in the classical progeria of childhood, Hutchinson–Gilford syndrome (HGPS), which is characterized by severe signs of premature aging, including atherosclerosis, alopecia, and osteoporosis.

Sss1p, an essential component of the heterotrimeric Sec61 complex in the ER (endoplasmic reticulum), is a tail-anchored protein whose precise mechanism of action is largely unknown. Tail-anchored proteins are involved in many cellular processes and are characterized by a single transmembrane sequence at or near the C-terminus. The Sec61 complex is the molecular machine through which secretory and membrane proteins translocate into and across the ER membrane. To understand the function of the tail anchor of Sss1p, we introduced mutations into the tail-anchor sequence and analysed the resulting

Abstract:
The nuclear receptors constitute a large family of ligand-inducible transcription factors. The control of many genetic pathways requires the assembly of these nuclear receptors in defined transcription-activating complexes within control regions of ligand-responsive genes. An essential step is the interaction of the receptors with specific DNA sequences, called hormone-response elements (HREs). These response elements position the receptors, and the complexes recruited by them, close to the genes of which transcription is affected. HREs are bipartite elements that are composed of two hexameric
