Mono vs Multi vs Poly ubiquitination
Mono - attach 1 ub (trafficking)
Multi - multiple sites (endocytosis)
Poly - long chain of ub (degradation)
Impact of dwell time
The longer a protein can be associated with the regulatory subunit of
the
proteosome, the more likely the protein is going to be degraded
How does rRNA contribute to translational efficiency
rRNA is most of the ribosome
catalyzes bind formation for speedy translation
anticodon bonds to only specific mRNA+tRNA
Ligand
signal
sends info from one cell to another
Receptor
protein on target cell to receive signal
Transduction
Relayer
Chain reaction to pass message along
Response
cell changing
Molecular switches (example)
switching between on + off
GTP binding (bound to GTP = ON)
Cell signal specificity
receptors unique to certain signals
different downstream proteins
Collins et al
26S Proteasome --> degradation of proteins
ubiquitination doesn't equal immediate degradation (dwell time)
Ribosome Profiling Density
More reads/higher density = more ribosome
Ribosome Profiling Positions
clustered in codon reading = active translation
peaks at start codon = initiation
Ribosome Profiling high build ups
ribosome slowing or stalling to read
Ribosome Profiling Translation efficiency
High mRNA + low ribosome = inefficient
Positive feedback
outputs make the process faster
cell division
On diagram: loops, plus signs, promoting production
Negative feedback
outputs shut down process
inhibition
blunt ends, minus signs, product shuts down production
Methylation
creates distinct regions in chromatin regulation
keeps charge
changes protein - protein interactions
Acetylation
neutralizes charge (+ histones hugging - DNA)
opens chromatin to activate genes
Glycosylation
adding sugars for folding, stability, and recognition
ID in ER
Phosphorylation
adds large - charged group
on/off switch
assembles large proteins into complexes
Cell cycle check points
G1/s - transition/start (size? environment? density? attachment?)
G2/M - mitosis (replicated? environment?)
Meta to Ana - cytokinesis (chromosomes attached? ready to split?)
Cyclin classes
G1 - high levels = expression of G1/S cyclins
G1/S - activate cdk to push cell into S phase for cell cycle entry
S - stimulate chromosome duplication
M - enter mitosis at G2/M and degrade at meta to ana
EF-Tu
EF1
escorts tRNA to A site
EF-G
EF2
uses GTP hydrolysis to provide mechanical push of ribosome forward
RF
Stop codons
Transportation into ER + sorting
entry for secretory pathway
use vesicles to go to golgi apparatus
sends to final destination
Major roles of ER
Manufacture - lipids + export proteins
Quality control - check proteins before fold
Storage - store Ca2+ for signal
ER resident chaperones
BiP - helpers - grab floppy proteins and folds correctly
Disulfide bonds - staples - keep together
ER bound protein translation
water freezing aa comes out > SRP grabs ribosomes to stop > SRP receptot docks ribosome > translocator in membrane for protein
ER sequence signals
Start transfer - opens door for threading
Stop transfer - closes door for threading
How would a protein on membrane orient based on ER signaling sequence?
Standard signal usually cut off
N term in ER with C term in cytosol (BC C is +)
Class of cell surface receptors
Ion channels
g protein using (GPCR)
enzyme coupled
Second messengers
molecules that spread signals deep into a cell after receptor activation
cAMP
Fast vs Slow signaling
Fast - exocytosis
Slow - cell cycle entry
GCPR activation (Gs vs Gi)
Gs - activates adenylyl cyclase
Gi - inhibits adenylyl cyclase
GCPR activation steps
ligand binds to GCPR > GDP kicked out > GTP let in > split into a and B > signal stops once a subunit times out > GTP turned back to GDP
How is the 26S proteasome processive?
26S proteasome is processive because it binds, unfolds, translocates, and fully degrades proteins in one continuous operation without releasing them halfway
Ubiquitination process
E1 picks up + activates Ub with ATP > E2 carries live Ub from E1 to E3 > E3 acts as a matchmaker for Ub and specific target protein
Yip et al
UBE20 binds best with Ub and NAP1L1
Formicheva et al
NF-kB family of transcription factors
noncanonical path implicated in regulating cell signaling
high density = stop cell division

A - aminoacyl - charged tRNA entry
P - peptidyl - holding tRNA attached to growing polypeptide
E - exit - uncharged DNA
