AbstractThe lateral stalk of ribosome is responsible for kingdom-specific binding of translation factors and activation of GTP hydrolysis that drives protein synthesis. In eukaryotes, the stalk is composed of acidic ribosomal proteins P0, P1 and P2 that constitute a pentameric P-complex in 1: 2: 2 ratio. We have determined the solution structure of the N-terminal dimerization domain of human P2 (NTD-P2), which provides insights into the structural organization of the eukaryotic stalk. Our structure revealed that eukaryotic stalk protein P2 forms a symmetric homodimer in solution, and is structurally distinct from the bacterial counterpart L12 homodimer. The two subunits of NTD-P2 form extensive hydrophobic interactions in the dimeric interface that buries 2400 Å 2 of solvent accessible surface area. We have showed that P1 can dissociate P2 homodimer spontaneously to form a more stable P1/P2 1: 1 heterodimer. By homology modelling, we identified three exposed polar residues on helix-3 of P2 are substituted by conserved hydrophobic residues in P1. Confirmed by mutagenesis, we showed that these residues on helix-3 of P1 are not involved in the dimerization of P1/P2, but instead play a vital role in anchoring P1/P2 heterodimer to P0. Based on our results, models of the eukaryotic stalk complex were proposed. © The Author(s) 2010. Published by Oxford University Press.
