In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, L30 is one of many ribosomal proteins that is encoded by two functional genes. We have cloned and sequenced RPL30B, which shows strong homology to RPL30A. Use of mRNA as a template for a polymerase chain reaction demonstrated that RPL30B contains an intron in its 5' untranslated region. This intron has an unusual 5' splice site, C/GUAUGU. The genomic copies of RPL30A and RPL30B were disrupted by homologous recombination. Growth rates, primer extension, and two-dimensional ribosomal protein analyses of these disruption mutants suggested that RPL30A is responsible for the majority of L30 production. Surprisingly, meiosis of a diploid strain carrying one disrupted RPL30A and one disrupted RPL30B yielded four viable spores. Ribosomes from haploid cells carrying both disrupted genes had no detectable L30, yet such cells grew with a doubling time only 30% longer than that of wild-type cells. Furthermore, depletion of L30 did not alter the ratio of 60S to 40S ribosomal subunits, suggesting that there is no serious effect on the assembly of 60S subunits. Polysome profiles, however, suggest that the absence of L30 leads to the formation of stalled translation initiation complexes.

Ubiquitin is a highly conserved small eukaryotic protein. It is generated by proteolytic cleavage of precursor proteins in which it is fused either to itself, constituting a polyubiquitin precursor of head-to-tail monomers, or as a single N-terminal moiety to ribosomal proteins. Understanding the role of the ubiquitin fused to ribosomal proteins becomes relevant, as these proteins are practically invariably eS31 and eL40 in the different eukaryotes. Herein, we used the amenable yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae to study whether ubiquitin facilitates the expression of the fused eL40 (Ubi1 and Ubi2 precursors) and eS31 (Ubi3 precursor) ribosomal proteins. We have analyzed the phenotypic effects of a genomic ubi1∆ub-HA ubi2∆ mutant, which expresses a ubiquitin-free HA-tagged eL40A protein as the sole source of cellular eL40. This mutant shows a severe slow-growth phenotype, which could be fully suppressed by increased dosage of the ubi1∆ub-HA allele, or partially by the replacement of ubiquitin by the ubiquitin-like Smt3 protein. While expression levels of eL40A-HA from ubi1∆ub-HA are low, eL40A is produced practically at normal levels from the Smt3-S-eL40A-HA precursor. Finally, we observed enhanced aggregation of eS31-HA when derived from a Ubi3∆ub-HA precursor and reduced aggregation of eL40A-HA when expressed from a Smt3-S-eL40A-HA precursor. We conclude that ubiquitin might serve as a cis-acting molecular chaperone that assists in the folding and synthesis of the fused eL40 and eS31 ribosomal proteins.

Tes kemampuan adalah salah satu kegiatan penting dalam pengendalian mutu dan jaminan kualitas mikrobiologi laboratorium untuk mengukur kompetensi analis dan analisis uji profisiensi membutuhkan persiapan Model mikroorganisme adalah kualitas standar dan validitas. Mikrobiologi uji kualitas produk kedelai utama diarahkan pada kehadiran Saccharomyces cerevisiae ragi (S. cerevisiae), S. Bailli, S. rouxii dankontaminan bakteri seperti Bacillus dan Deinococcus. Jenis ragi dan bakteri yang terlibat dalam proses dan dapat menjadi salah satu parameter kualitas penting dalam persiapan yang dihasilkan. Jumlah dan viabilitas bakteri dan ragi menjadi parameter utama dalam proses persiapan bahan uji. Jumlah tersebut adalah jumlah minimum yang berlaku dapat dianalisis. Jumlah ini harus dibawah 10 CFU diperlukan untuk menunjukkan tingkat hygienitas proses dan tingkat minimal kontaminasi. Viabilitas bakteri dan bahan tes ragi persiapan untuk tes kemahiran kecap yang diawetkan dengan L-pengeringan adalah teknik Deinococcus radiodurans (D. radiodurans) 16 tahun, 58 tahun S. cerevisiae, dan S. roxii 13 tahun. kata kunci: Viabilitas, Deinococcus, khamir, L-pengeringan, Proficiency AbstractProficiency test is one of the important activities in quality control and quality assurance microbiology laboratory for measuring the competence of analysts and analysis Proficiency test requires a model microorganism preparations are standardized quality and validity. Microbiological test of the quality of the main soy products aimed at thepresence of yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S. cerevisiae), S. bailli, S. rouxii and bacterial contaminants such as Bacillus and Deinococcus. Types of yeasts and bacteria involved in the process and can be one of the important quality parameters in the preparation produced. The number and viability of bacteria and yeasts become themain parameters in the process of test preparation materials. The amount in question is the minimum number that is valid can be analyzed.
