Editor-In-Chief: C. Michael Gibson, M.S., M.D. [1] Mahshid Mir, M.D. [2] Ribosomes are made of proteins and rRNA

  • Eukaryotes → 60 and 40s = 80s
  • Prokaryotes → 50 s and 30 s = 70 s
    • Have 23s in 50s

Translation

  • Initiation
    • IF1, IF2, If3
      • Assist in assembly of smaller ribosomal subunit to first trna molecule
      • Methionine is always the start
      • f-Methionine in prokaryotes
      • IF-2 first binds to 30s and then to methionine tRNA. Then when 50s comes along, it hydrolyzes GTP on IF2 and allows 50s to attach to 30s
    • A site → Incoming aminoacyl TRNA binds
    • P site → Polypeptide binds (Growing chain)
      • First tRNA binds here
    • E site → Free tRNA (exit)
  • Elongation
    • Incoming charged aminoacyl TRNA binds to A site
    • Elongation factor help incoming trna to bind to A site (Uses GTP)
    • 50s has peptidyl transferase transfers AA from p site to A site
      • In prokaryotes, activity is in 23s subunit of 50s rRNA
    • Translocation
      • Ribosome complex moves 3 nucleotides
      • tRNA + Peptide is moved from A site to P site
      • Newly uncharged tRNA from P side to E side
      • EF-G  → Eukaryotes
      • EF-2 in eukaryotes
        • Diptheria and exotoxin (Pseudomonas) inhibit this
  • Termination
    • Stop codons
      • UGA, UAA and UAG
      • Signal to STOP
      • No new TRNA coming
      • Release factor binds to MRNA and hydrolyzes GTP and new polypeptide is released.
  • Antibiotics
    • Aminoglycosides → Inhibit 30s subunit before initiation (No pairing with TRNA)
    • Linezolid → Inhibits initiation by binding to 50s subunit
    • Tetracycline
      • Bind to 30s subunit
      • Prevent aminoacyl TRNA from binding to A site
    • Chloramphenicol
      • Inhibits peptidyl transferase
      • Binds to 50s
    • Macrolides
      • Inhibits translocation by binding to 50s subunit
    • Clindamycin
      • Same as macrolides
    • Lincamycin
      • Bind to 50s and inhibit translocation
    • Streptrogranin
      • Bind to 50s and inhibit translocation
    • Buy AT 30 ,CCELL at 50
  • Post translational modification
    • Trim terminals
    • Covalent modification
      • Glycosylation, hydroxylation, phosphorylation
      • Collagen → Hydroxylation of proline and lysine
    • Disulfide bonds
    • Protein folding
      • Primary structure → Chain
      • Secondary structure → Beta and alpha pleated
      • Tertiary structure

Purine synthesis: You need glycine, glutamine and aspartate + tetrahydrofolate (Folic acid) + CO2 Rate limiting step : Glutamine PRPP amidotransferase Carbon sources: CO2, glycine, tetrahydrofolate Nitrogen sources Aspartate + Glutamine Pyrimidines: Aspartate + carbamoyl phosphate (1 carbon and 1 nitrogen [glutamine]) + ATP Carbamoyl phosphate → Has 1 carbon and 1 nitrogen You need aspartate + CO2 + glutamine + ATP (Last 3 come from carbamoyl phosphate) Carbamoyl phosphate synthetase 2 (RATE LIMITING STEP) Start with orotic acid then add a base Carbon sources: Aspartate CO2 Glutamine → Gives nitrogen CPS 1 + CPS 2 CPS 1 Mitochondria Urea cycle Use nitrogen from ammonia CPS 2 Cytosol Pyrimidine synthesis Use nitrogen from glutamine Orotic aciduria Deficiency of UMP synthase AR Elevated oritic acid Megaloblastic anemia Not corrected with B12 or folic acid No hyperammonemia Treat with uridine Ornithine Transcarbomylase Deficiency Causes hyperammonemia Elevated orotic acid Problem with urea cycle Dantrolene → Prevents release of calcium from SR of skeletal muscle Inhibit reuptake of norepinephrine: Cocaine TCA Ribosomes are synthesized in the nucleus and transported into the cytoplasm.
