| Abstract |
Ribosomes within a cell are commonly viewed as biochemically homogenous RNA-protein super-complexes performing identical functions of protein synthesis. However, recent evidence suggests that ribosomes may be a more dynamic macromolecular complex with specialized roles. Here, we present extensive genetic and molecular evidence in the fission yeast S. pombe that the paralogous genes for many ribosomal proteins (RPs) are functionally different, despite that they encode the same ribosomal component, often with only subtle differences in the sequences. Focusing on the rps8 paralog gene deletions rps801d and rps802d, we showed that the mutant cells differ in the level of Rpl42p in actively translating ribosomes and that their phenotypic differences reside in the Rpl42p level variation instead of the subtle protein sequence difference between Rps801p and Rps802p. Additional 40S ribosomal protein paralog pairs also exhibit similar phenotypic differences via differential Rpl42p levels in actively translating ribosomes. Together, our work identifies variations in the Rpl42p level as a potential form of ribosome heterogeneity in biochemical compositions and suggests a possible connection between large and small subunits during ribosome biogenesis that may cause such heterogeneity. Additionally, it illustrates the complexity of the underlying mechanisms for the genetic specificity of ribosome paralogs.
