Knockdown of the Ribosomal Protein eL38 in HEK293 Cells Changes the Translational Efficiency of Specific Genes
The protein eL38 is one of the smallest proteins of the mammalian ribosome, which is a component of its large (60S) subunit. The haploinsufficiency of eL38 in mice leads to the Tail-short mutant phenotype characterized by defects in the development of the axial skeleton caused by the poor translatio...

description | The protein eL38 is one of the smallest proteins of the mammalian ribosome, which is a component of its large (60S) subunit. The haploinsufficiency of eL38 in mice leads to the Tail-short mutant phenotype characterized by defects in the development of the axial skeleton caused by the poor translation of mRNA subsets of Hox genes. Using the ribosome profiling assay applied to HEK293 cells knocked down of eL38, we examined the effects of the lack of eL38 in 60S subunits on gene expression at the level of translation. A four-fold decrease in the cell content of eL38 was shown to result in significant changes in the translational efficiencies of 150 genes. Among the genes, whose expression at the level of translation was enhanced, there were mainly those associated with basic metabolic processes; namely, translation, protein folding, chromosome organization, splicing, and others. The set of genes with reduced translation efficiencies contained those that are mostly involved in the processes related to the regulation of transcription, including the activation of Hox genes. Thus, we demonstrated that eL38 insufficiency significantly affects the expression of certain genes at the translational level. Our findings facilitate understanding the possible causes of some anomalies in eL38-deficient animals. |
