Mistranslation drives the evolution of robustness in TEM-1 β-lactamase

Abstract: How biological systems such as proteins achieve robustness to ubiquitous perturbations is a fundamental biological question. Such perturbations include errors that introduce phenotypic mutations into nascent proteins during the translation of mRNA. These errors are remarkably frequent. They are also costly, because they reduce protein stability and help create toxic misfolded proteins. Adaptive evolution might reduce these costs of protein mistranslation by two principal mechanisms. The first increases the acc… Show more

“…In other cases where mistranslation is very high, however, cells have been shown to develop robustness to increased error rates by increasing protein turnover to maintain proteome homeostasis 99 . In effect, if cells can maintain viability when translation fidelity is initially reduced, the accompanying increase in mistranslation (for example, adaptive mistranslation) can be beneficial by promoting phenotypic heterogeneity and increasing the probability of successfully adapting to stress 115,116 . Given that specific mechanisms such as aaRS oxidation impair quality control on exposure to stress, adaptive mistranslation provides a potentially potent mechanism to promote survival (Fig.…”

“…Only three of thirty positions identified by the model were also identified by either Rosetta or FoldX, which also largely identified separate residues. Furthermore, in TEM-1 β-lactamase, each of these methods uniquely identified stabilizing mutations reported elsewhere in the literature 17,18 (SI Fig. 13).…”
