Alternate Fates of tRNAs in Initiation and Elongation
Protein synthesis in all organisms utilizes a special tRNA called the initiator tRNA. Initiator tRNAs take part in the initiation step of protein synthesis by their direct binding to the P‐site of the ribosome. The other ... -
Fidelity Of Translation Initiation In E. coli : Roles Of The Transcription-recycling Factor RapA, 23S rRNA Modifications, And Evolutionary Origin Of Initiator tRNA
(2016-09-15)Translation initiation is a rate limiting step during protein biosynthesis. Initiation occurs by formation of an initiation complex comprising 30S subunit of ribosome, mRNA, initiator tRNA, and initiation factors. The ... -
How Much Initiator tRNA Does Escherichia Coli Need?
(2017-11-27)The work discussed in this thesis deals with the significance of initiator tRNA gene copy number in Escherichia coli. A summary of the relevant literature discussing the process of protein synthesis, ... -
Mechanism Of Ribosome Recycling In Eubacteria, And The Impact Of rRNA Methylations On Ribosome Recycling And Fidelity Of Initiation In Esherichia coli
(2009-12-09)The studies reported in this thesis address, firstly, aspects of ribosome recycling in eubacteria, and secondly, a preliminary characterization of an EFG-like locus from Mycobacterium smegmatis. A hitherto unsuspected role ... -
Roles of the ribosomal protein uS12 and the initiation factor 3 in the maintenance of fidelity of translation in Escherichia coli
The flow of genetic information within biological systems according to the central dogma of molecular biology entails protein synthesis as the last step towards deciphering the message encrypted in the genetic code in ... -
A Study On The Mechanism Of Initiator tRNA Selection On The Ribosomes During Translation Initiation And Rescue Of The Stalled Ribosomes By SsrA In Escherichia Coli
(2013-02-07)The studies reported in this thesis describe the work done in the area of translation initiation where a previously unknown role of multiple copies of initiator tRNA in E. coli has been reported. Also the role of SsrA ...
