Requirement of chain initiation factor 3 and ribosomal protein S1 in translation of synthetic and natural messenger RNA

Abstract: Amino acid incorporation directed by poly(A), poly(U) or R17 RNA has been examined in S1-depleted protein synthesizing systems. We observe that the translation of either synthetic or natural messenger RNA is strictly dependent on the presence of chain initiation factor 3 and ribosomal protein S1. With poly(A) or poly(U) both IF-3 and S1 stimulate amino acid incorporation at least 25-fold, and with R17 RNA the stimulation is approximately 15-fold. More than one copy of S1 per ribosome decreases amino acid incor… Show more

“…these results do not rule out IF3 (6,8) or ribosomal S1 (8,29) interaction with mRNA, since both of these proteins may have two RNA binding sites (21,48). Hence, it will be of interest to look for any similarly strong interactions of IF3 with the same or other regions of 16S RNA in whole 30S ribosomal subunits, where the 3' or 5' termini have been radiolabeled in aitil.…”

“…The fingerprints of Figure 1 contain not only spots derived from the three authentic initiator regions in the R17 RNA (see Table 1) but other large oligonucleotides as well (numbers 10,11,12,13). These are prominent only in the ribosome-protected RNA from reactions where Sl was not present (Figure lc and d); they are barely detectable in maps from reactions containing either 30S(-Sl) subunits reconstituted with S1 (Figure la and b) or native 30S subunits (not shown).…”

“…to 70S ribosomes was demonstrated by analyzing ['4C] IF3-70S mixtures on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (Sobura and Wahba, unpublished observations). Furthermore, the fact that IF3 is required for maximum translation at 12-14 mM Mg2+ (Sobura et al, 1977) strongly suggests an interaction between IF3 and 70S ribosomes.…”
