Using electron cryo-microscopy of a single specimen, we present five ribosome structures formed with the Taura syndrome virus IRES and translocase eEF2•GTP bound with sordarin. The structures suggest a trajectory of IRES translocation, required for translation initiation, and provide an unprecedented view of eEF2 dynamics. The IRES rearranges from extended to bent to extended conformations. This inchworm-like movement is coupled with ribosomal inter-subunit rotation and 40S head swivel. eEF2, attached to the 60S subunit, slides along the rotating 40S subunit to enter the A site. Its diphthamide-bearing tip at domain IV separates the tRNA-mRNA-like pseudoknot I (PKI) of the IRES from the decoding center. This unlocks 40S domains, facilitating head swivel and biasing IRES translocation via hitherto-elusive intermediates with PKI captured between the A and P sites. The structures suggest missing links in our understanding of tRNA translocation.0.97262037sitecleaner02023-07-19T09:54:24ZSO:Internal ribosome entry sites0.4109444sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:20:07ZSO:IRESs0.85950506taxonomy_domaincleaner02023-07-14T09:20:21ZDUMMY:viralchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:13:30ZmRNAs0.9995241experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-17T08:27:44ZMESH:electron cryo-microscopy0.9442826complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:55ZGO:ribosome0.9963812evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:22ZDUMMY:structures0.7445826speciescleaner02023-07-14T09:24:11ZMESH:Taura syndrome virus0.84979075sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:20:59ZSO:IRES0.9981079protein_typecleaner02023-07-17T08:38:45ZMESH:translocase0.9993623complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:31:04ZGO:eEF2•GTP0.99943036protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:30:36ZDUMMY:bound withchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:37:54Zsordarin0.99468297evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:22ZDUMMY:structures0.36434925sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:20:59ZSO:IRESprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-17T08:39:10Zinitiation0.9997938proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:41ZPR:eEF20.9629238sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:20:59ZSO:IRES0.9996594protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:34:20ZDUMMY:extended0.99965954protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:26:28ZDUMMY:bent0.99962234protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:34:20ZDUMMY:extendedprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:13:02Zinchworm0.791828complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-17T08:54:51ZGO:40Sstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-17T08:56:47Zhead0.9996791proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:44ZPR:eEF2complex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-18T13:49:56Z60Sstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T13:50:11Zsubunitcomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-17T09:02:37Z40Sstructure_elementSO:melaniev@ebi.ac.uk2023-07-18T13:46:36Zsubunitstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T13:50:12Zsubunit0.99909836sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:51ZSO:A site0.9991868ptmcleaner02023-07-19T09:17:14ZMESH:diphthamidestructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T10:38:17ZIV0.9991062structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T13:22:30ZSO:tRNA-mRNA-like pseudoknot I0.9989575structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:39ZSO:PKI0.63113517sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:20:59ZSO:IRESsiteSO:cleaner02023-07-18T14:50:01Zdecoding center0.9523076complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-17T09:02:37ZGO:40Sstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-17T08:56:47Zhead0.560403sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:20:59ZSO:IRES0.99070907structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:39ZSO:PKI0.99939346sitecleaner02023-07-19T09:54:34ZSO:A and P sites0.9984297evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:22ZDUMMY:structureschemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:21ZtRNAABSTRACTabstract1139DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.14874.001INTROtitle_11186IntroductionINTROparagraph1199Virus propagation relies on the host translational apparatus. To efficiently compete with host mRNAs and engage in translation under stress, some viral mRNAs undergo cap-independent translation. To this end, internal ribosome entry site (IRES) RNAs are employed (reviewed in. An IRES is located at the 5’ untranslated region of the viral mRNA, preceding an open reading frame (ORF). To initiate translation, a structured IRES RNA interacts with the 40S subunit or the 80S ribosome, resulting in precise positioning of the downstream start codon in the small 40S subunit. The canonical scenario of cap-dependent and IRES-dependent initiation involves positioning of the AUG start codon and the initiator tRNAMet in the ribosomal peptidyl-tRNA (P) site, facilitated by interaction with initiation factors. Subsequent binding of an elongator aminoacyl-tRNA to the ribosomal A site transitions the initiation complex into the elongation cycle of translation. Upon peptide bond formation, the two tRNAs and their respective mRNA codons translocate from the A and P to P and E (exit) sites, freeing the A site for the next elongator tRNA.0.99361897taxonomy_domaincleaner02023-07-17T08:49:06ZDUMMY:ViruschemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:13:29ZmRNAs0.9985154taxonomy_domaincleaner02023-07-14T09:20:21ZDUMMY:viralchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:13:30ZmRNAs0.98197454sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:23:04ZSO:internal ribosome entry site0.36906794sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:00ZSO:IRESchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:14:19ZRNAs0.7004662sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:00ZSO:IRES0.9973719structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:13:02ZSO:5’ untranslated region0.99826705taxonomy_domaincleaner02023-07-14T09:20:22ZDUMMY:viralchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:14:01ZmRNA0.9646409structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T09:59:13ZSO:open reading frame0.98755205structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T09:44:51ZSO:ORF0.9995622protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:27:02ZDUMMY:structured0.8683453sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:00ZSO:IRESchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:13:16ZRNAcomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-17T09:02:37Z40Sstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T13:50:12Zsubunitcomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-18T13:51:20Z80S ribosome0.9970957protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:28:13ZDUMMY:smallcomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-17T09:02:37Z40Sstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T13:50:12Zsubunit0.61591065sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:00ZSO:IRESchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:13:47ZtRNAMet0.99957794sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:31:22ZSO:peptidyl-tRNA (P) siteprotein_typeMESH:cleaner02023-07-19T12:27:45Zinitiation factorschemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:14:40Zaminoacyl-tRNA0.9993316sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:48ZSO:A sitecomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-19T12:27:22Zinitiation complexchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:04ZtRNAschemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:14:03ZmRNAsiteSO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:29:28ZA and P0.9991889sitecleaner02023-07-19T09:54:59ZSO:P and E (exit) sites0.9995337sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:51ZSO:A sitechemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:19ZtRNAINTROparagraph2334An unusual strategy of initiation is used by intergenic-region (IGR) IRESs found in Dicistroviridae arthropod-infecting viruses. These include shrimp-infecting Taura syndrome virus (TSV), and insect viruses Plautia stali intestine virus (PSIV) and Cricket paralysis virus (CrPV). The IGR IRES mRNAs do not contain an AUG start codon. The IGR-IRES-driven initiation does not involve initiator tRNAMet and initiation factors. As such, this group of IRESs represents the most streamlined mechanism of eukaryotic translation initiation. A recent demonstration of bacterial translation initiation by an IGR IRES indicates that the IRESs take advantage of conserved structural and dynamic properties of the ribosome. Early electron cryo-microscopy (cryo-EM) studies have found that the CrPV IRES packs in the ribosome intersubunit space. Recent cryo-EM structures of ribosome-bound TSV IRES and CrPV IRES revealed that IGR IRESs position the ORF by mimicking a translating ribosome bound with tRNA and mRNA. The ~200-nt IRES RNAs span from the A site beyond the E site. A conserved tRNA-mRNA–like structural element of pseudoknot I (PKI) interacts with the decoding center in the A site of the 40S subunit. The codon-anticodon-like helix of PKI is stabilized by interactions with the universally conserved decoding-center nucleotides G577, A1755 and A1756 (G530, A1492 and A1493 in E. coli 16S ribosomal RNA, or rRNA). The downstream initiation codon—coding for alanine—is placed in the mRNA tunnel, preceding the decoding center. PKI of IGR IRESs therefore mimics an A-site elongator tRNA interacting with an mRNA sense codon, but not a P-site initiator tRNAMet and the AUG start codon.protein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-17T08:39:10Zinitiationstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:25:52Zintergenic-region0.78682446structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:26:09ZSO:IGR0.6738639sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:20:11ZSO:IRESsspeciesMESH:cleaner02023-07-14T09:23:36ZDicistroviridae

this non-canonical initiation complex transitions to the elongation step is not fully understood. For a cognate aminoacyl-tRNA to bind the first viral mRNA codon, PKI has to be translocated from the A site, so that the first codon can be presented in the A site. A cryo-EM structure of the ribosome bound with a CrPV IRES and release factor eRF1 occupying the A site provided insight into the post-translocation state. In this structure, PKI is positioned in the P site and the first mRNA codon is located in the A site. How the large IRES RNA translocates within the ribosome, allowing PKI translocation from the A to P site is not known.protein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-17T08:39:10ZinitiationchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:14:46Zaminoacyl-tRNA0.99630934taxonomy_domaincleaner02023-07-14T09:20:22ZDUMMY:viralchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:14:03ZmRNA0.537322structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:39ZSO:PKI0.9994906sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:51ZSO:A site0.99944466sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:51ZSO:A site0.9993964experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-17T08:27:34ZMESH:cryo-EM0.9979473evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:11ZDUMMY:structure0.99900335complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:55ZGO:ribosome0.9994935protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:30:36ZDUMMY:bound with0.98907185speciescleaner02023-07-14T09:25:05ZMESH:CrPV0.9706527sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:00ZSO:IRES0.99888396protein_typecleaner02023-07-19T09:17:26ZMESH:release factor0.99953234proteincleaner02023-07-19T09:25:03ZPR:eRF10.99944097sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:51ZSO:A siteprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-14T15:27:19Zpost-translocation0.9993575evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:11ZDUMMY:structure0.94575197structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:39ZSO:PKI0.9994904sitecleaner02023-07-19T09:56:12ZSO:P sitechemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:14:03ZmRNA0.9994333sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:51ZSO:A site0.8747202protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:28:37ZDUMMY:large0.7590424sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:00ZSO:IRESchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:13:17ZRNA0.9992211complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:55ZGO:ribosome0.9958423structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:39ZSO:PKIsiteSO:cleaner02023-07-17T08:57:28ZA to P siteINTROparagraph4668The structural similarity of PKI and the tRNA anticodon stem loop (ASL) bound to a codon suggests that their mechanisms of translocation are similar to some extent. Translocation of the IRES or tRNA-mRNA requires eukaryotic elongation factor 2 (eEF2), a structural and functional homolog of the well-studied bacterial EF-G. Pre-translocation tRNA-bound ribosomes contain a peptidyl- and deacyl-tRNA, both base-paired to mRNA codons in the A and P sites (termed 2tRNA•mRNA complex). Translocation of 2tRNA•mRNA involves two major large-scale ribosome rearrangements (Figure 1—figure supplement 1) (reviewed in). First, studies of bacterial ribosomes showed that a ~10° rotation of the small subunit relative to the large subunit, known as intersubunit rotation, or ratcheting, is required for translocation. Intersubunit rotation occurs spontaneously upon peptidyl transfer, and is coupled with formation of hybrid tRNA states. In the rotated pre-translocation ribosome, the peptidyl-tRNA binds the A site of the small subunit with its ASL and the P site of the large subunit with the CCA 3’ end (A/P hybrid state). Concurrently, the deacyl-tRNA interacts with the P site of the small subunit and the E site of the large subunit (P/E hybrid state). The ribosome can undergo spontaneous, thermally-driven forward-reverse rotation that shifts the two tRNAs between the hybrid and 'classical' states while the anticodon stem loops remain non-translocated. Binding of EF-G next to the A site and reverse rotation of the small subunit results in translocation of both ASLs on the small subunit. EF-G is thought to 'unlock' the pre-translocation ribosome, allowing movement of the 2tRNA•mRNA complex, however the structural details of this unlocking are not known.0.6377333structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:39ZSO:PKIchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:21ZtRNA0.9995071structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:34:46ZSO:anticodon stem loop0.99966896structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:34:54ZSO:ASL0.9995195protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:28:43ZDUMMY:bound to0.63755476sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:01ZSO:IRES0.9917429complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:36:30ZGO:tRNA-mRNA0.999411taxonomy_domaincleaner02023-07-14T09:35:54ZDUMMY:eukaryotic0.9992318proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:35:43ZPR:elongation factor 20.99962425proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:44ZPR:eEF20.999524taxonomy_domaincleaner02023-07-14T09:36:04ZDUMMY:bacterial0.9995211proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:36:10ZPR:EF-G0.998827protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T15:24:43ZDUMMY:Pre-translocation0.9993747protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T09:48:16ZDUMMY:tRNA-bound0.9985892complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-17T08:55:03ZGO:ribosomeschemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:25:03Zpeptidyl- and deacyl-tRNAchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:14:03ZmRNA0.99794775sitecleaner02023-07-19T09:56:17ZSO:A and P sites0.99951696complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:36:38ZGO:2tRNA•mRNA0.9996013complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:36:39ZGO:2tRNA•mRNAcomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:32:55Zribosome0.9993481taxonomy_domaincleaner02023-07-14T09:36:02ZDUMMY:bacterial0.99861395complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-17T08:58:48ZGO:ribosomesstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:39:02Zsmall subunitstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:49:05Zlarge subunit0.9032097protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:28:53ZDUMMY:hybridchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:21ZtRNA0.99968195protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:28:59ZDUMMY:rotated0.999198protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T15:24:43ZDUMMY:pre-translocation0.5673034complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:55ZGO:ribosomechemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:58:11Zpeptidyl-tRNA0.9994321sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:51ZSO:A sitestructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:39:03Zsmall subunit0.99960846structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:34:55ZSO:ASL0.9990966sitecleaner02023-07-19T09:56:24ZSO:P sitestructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:49:05Zlarge subunitprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-14T09:37:12ZA/P hybridchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:58:26Zdeacyl-tRNA0.9991919sitecleaner02023-07-19T09:56:28ZSO:P sitestructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:39:03Zsmall subunit0.9993495sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:35:31ZSO:E sitestructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:49:05Zlarge subunitprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-14T09:37:33ZP/E hybrid0.99830496complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:55ZGO:ribosomechemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:06ZtRNAs0.99763894protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:29:05ZDUMMY:hybrid0.9982799protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:29:11ZDUMMY:classical0.99951655structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:37:40ZSO:anticodon stem loops0.87011protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:38:08ZDUMMY:non-translocated0.9995951proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:36:12ZPR:EF-G0.9992912sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:51ZSO:A site0.94110376structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:39:01ZSO:small subunit0.9995764structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:13:22ZSO:ASLsstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:39:03Zsmall subunit0.99954456proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:36:12ZPR:EF-G0.99920344protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T15:24:43ZDUMMY:pre-translocation0.9631677complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:55ZGO:ribosome0.99962693complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:36:39ZGO:2tRNA•mRNAINTROparagraph6437The second large-scale rearrangement involves rotation, or swiveling, of the head of the small subunit relative to the body. The head can rotate by up to ~20° around the axis nearly orthogonal to that of intersubunit rotation, in the absence of tRNA or in the presence of a single P/E tRNA and eEF2 or EF-G. Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) data suggest that head swivel of the rotated small subunit facilitates EF-G-mediated movement of 2tRNA•mRNA. Structures of the 70S•EF-G complex bound with two nearly translocated tRNAs, exhibit a large 18° to 21° head swivel in a mid-rotated subunit, whereas no head swivel is observed in the fully rotated pre-translocation or in the non-rotated post-translocation 70S•2tRNA•EF-G structures. The structural role of head swivel is not fully understood. The head swivel was proposed to facilitate transition of the tRNA from the P to E site by widening a constriction between these sites on the 30S subunit. This widening allows the ASL to sample positions between the P and E sites. Whether and how the head swivel mediates tRNA transition from the A to P site remains unknown.0.9985524structure_elementcleaner02023-07-17T08:56:45ZSO:head0.7539265structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:39:03ZSO:small subunitstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T14:09:33Zbody0.9990159structure_elementcleaner02023-07-17T08:56:47ZSO:head0.99955404protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T09:55:35ZDUMMY:absence ofchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:21ZtRNA0.9994737protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T09:55:43ZDUMMY:presence of0.79971176sitecleaner02023-07-17T08:58:06ZSO:P0.75976425sitecleaner02023-07-17T08:58:14ZSO:EchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:21ZtRNA0.99949706proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:44ZPR:eEF20.9994564proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:36:12ZPR:EF-G0.98532176experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-14T09:40:59ZMESH:Förster resonance energy transfer0.7090511experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-14T09:41:06ZMESH:FRETstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-17T08:56:47Zhead0.9996474protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:58:24ZDUMMY:rotated0.6217345structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:39:03ZSO:small subunit0.99879694proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:36:12ZPR:EF-G0.9994505complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:36:39ZGO:2tRNA•mRNA0.9994387evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:23ZDUMMY:Structures0.9997114complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:39:49ZGO:70S•EF-G0.9995264protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:30:36ZDUMMY:bound with0.74690247protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:58:29ZDUMMY:nearly translocatedchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:06ZtRNAsstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-17T08:56:47Zhead0.9994354protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:58:42ZDUMMY:mid-rotated0.98889226structure_elementcleaner02023-07-18T13:50:12ZSO:subunitstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-17T08:56:47Zhead0.9995543protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:58:33ZDUMMY:fully rotated0.9844136protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T15:24:43ZDUMMY:pre-translocation0.9993871protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:58:36ZDUMMY:non-rotated0.92643744protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T15:27:19ZDUMMY:post-translocation0.9997191complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:39:55ZGO:70S•2tRNA•EF-G0.99933076evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:23ZDUMMY:structures0.95221514structure_elementcleaner02023-07-17T08:56:47ZSO:headstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-17T08:56:47ZheadchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:21ZtRNA0.9970267sitecleaner02023-07-17T08:57:36ZSO:P to E sitesiteSO:cleaner02023-07-19T10:25:25Zconstrictioncomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-18T13:52:44Z30Sstructure_elementSO:melaniev@ebi.ac.uk2023-07-18T13:46:36Zsubunitstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T13:50:12Zsubunit0.9996208structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:34:55ZSO:ASL0.9991023sitecleaner02023-07-17T08:57:43ZSO:P and E sitesstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-17T08:56:47ZheadchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:21ZtRNA0.9073696sitecleaner02023-07-17T08:57:27ZSO:A to P siteelife-14874-fig1-figsupp1.jpgfig1s1FIGfig_title_caption7577Comparison of 70S•2tRNA•mRNA and 80S•IRES translocation complexes.0.9997015complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:40:38ZGO:70S•2tRNA•mRNA0.9997058complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:40:43ZGO:80S•IRESelife-14874-fig1-figsupp1.jpgfig1s1FIGfig_caption7650(a) Structures of bacterial 70S•2tRNA•mRNA translocation complexes, ordered according to the position of the translocating A->P tRNA (orange).

Sub-classification of each class did not yield additional classes, but helped improve density in the PKI region of class III (estimated resolution and percentage of particles in the sub-classified reconstruction are shown in parentheses).0.9984871experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-19T14:09:56ZMESH:particles0.9994972experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-17T08:28:01ZMESH:3D classificationevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-17T08:28:32Z3D mask0.9884299complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-17T08:59:59ZGO:40S0.95528805structure_elementcleaner02023-07-17T08:56:47ZSO:head0.96366817speciescleaner02023-07-14T09:24:18ZMESH:TSV0.9968683sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:01ZSO:IRES0.99964654proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:44ZPR:eEF2bond_interactionMESH:melaniev@ebi.ac.uk2023-07-28T14:17:52Zstack0.9960376experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-19T14:09:58ZMESH:particles0.9980515sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:02ZSO:IRES0.99976474proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:44ZPR:eEF20.999455experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-17T08:28:03ZMESH:3D classificationevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-17T08:28:50Z2D mask0.9998017structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:39ZSO:PKIstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T10:39:43ZIV0.9997911proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:44ZPR:eEF2evidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:39:27ZStructures I through V0.9956601experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-17T08:29:03ZMESH:Sub-classification0.99904877evidencecleaner02023-07-19T14:10:06ZDUMMY:density0.999783structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:39ZSO:PKI0.9988875experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-19T14:09:58ZMESH:particles0.8339024experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-17T08:29:18ZMESH:sub-classified0.99856925evidencecleaner02023-07-19T14:10:10ZDUMMY:reconstructionelife-14874-fig1-figsupp2.jpgfig1s2FIGfig_caption9640DOI:

http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.14874.002INTROparagraph11388We sought to address the following questions by structural visualization of 80S•IRES•eEF2 translocation complexes: (1) How does a large IRES RNA move through the restricted intersubunit space, bringing PKI from the A to P site of the small subunit? (2) How does eEF2 mediate IRES translocation? (3) Does IRES translocation involve large rearrangements in the ribosome, similar to tRNA translocation? (4) What, if any, is the mechanistic role of 40S head rotation in IRES translocation? We used cryo-EM to visualize 80S•TSV IRES complexes formed in the presence of eEF2•GTP and the translation inhibitor sordarin, which stabilizes eEF2 on the ribosome. Although the mechanism of sordarin action is not fully understood, the inhibitor does not affect the conformation of eEF2•GDPNP on the ribosome, rendering it an excellent tool in translocation studies. Maximum-likelihood classification using FREALIGN identified five IRES-eEF2-bound ribosome structures within a single sample (Figures 1 and 2). The structures differ in the positions and conformations of ribosomal subunits (Figures 1b and 2), IRES RNA (Figures 3 and 4) and eEF2 (Figures 5 and 6). This ensemble of structures allowed us to reconstruct a sequence of steps in IRES translocation induced by eEF2.0.9995842experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-17T08:31:00ZMESH:structural visualization0.9997401complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:44:47ZGO:80S•IRES•eEF2siteSO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:21:02ZIRESchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:13:17ZRNA0.816472structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:39ZSO:PKI0.99950457sitecleaner02023-07-17T08:57:28ZSO:A to P sitestructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:39:03Zsmall subunit0.99959093proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:44ZPR:eEF2siteSO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:21:02ZIRESsiteSO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:21:02ZIRES0.9975649complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:55ZGO:ribosomechemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:21ZtRNA0.9349918complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-17T09:01:28ZGO:40Sstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-17T08:56:47ZheadsiteSO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:21:02ZIRES0.99958605experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-17T08:27:35ZMESH:cryo-EM0.99875283complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:45:10ZGO:80S•TSV IRES0.99009824protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T09:55:43ZDUMMY:presence of0.9996914complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:31:05ZGO:eEF2•GTPchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:37:54Zsordarin0.9997973proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:44ZPR:eEF2complex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:32:56ZribosomechemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:37:54Zsordarin0.9997215complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:45:47ZGO:eEF2•GDPNPcomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:32:56Zribosome0.99953794experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-17T08:31:36ZMESH:Maximum-likelihood classification0.99951017experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-17T08:31:41ZMESH:FREALIGN0.99900323protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:31:22ZDUMMY:IRES-eEF2-bound0.99925774complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:56ZGO:ribosome0.9992119evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:23ZDUMMY:structures0.9978788evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:23ZDUMMY:structuressiteSO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:21:03ZIRESchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:13:17ZRNA0.999419proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:44ZPR:eEF20.9989291evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:23ZDUMMY:structuressiteSO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:21:03ZIRES0.9996069proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:44ZPR:eEF2RESULTStitle_112662ResultsRESULTSparagraph12670We used single-particle cryo-EM and maximum-likelihood image classification in FREALIGN to obtain three-dimensional density maps from a single specimen.

http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.14874.007RESULTSparagraph16537Our structures represent hitherto uncharacterized translocation complexes of the TSV IRES captured within globally distinct 80S conformations (Figures 1b and 2). We numbered the structures from I to V, according to the position of the tRNA-mRNA-like PKI on the 40S subunit (Figure 2—source data 1). Specifically, PKI is partially withdrawn from the A site in Structure I, and fully translocated to the P site in Structure V (Figure 4; see also Figure 3—figure supplement 1). Thus Structures I to IV represent different positions of PKI between the A and P sites (Figure 2—source data 1), suggesting that these structures describe intermediate states of translocation. Structure V corresponds to the post-translocation state.0.9955178evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:23ZDUMMY:structures0.7319587speciescleaner02023-07-14T09:24:19ZMESH:TSV0.844797sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:03ZSO:IRES0.99952984complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-18T13:50:41ZGO:80SevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:45:21Zstructures from I to Vcomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:36:32ZtRNA-mRNAstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:27:39ZPKIcomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-17T09:02:37Z40Sstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T13:50:13Zsubunit0.9885704structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:40ZSO:PKI0.99954414sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:51ZSO:A siteevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:45:36ZStructure I0.9993441protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:37:56ZDUMMY:fully translocated0.9995669sitecleaner02023-07-19T09:57:27ZSO:P siteevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:14:22ZStructure VevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:14:45ZStructures I to IV0.9872119structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:40ZSO:PKI0.9779728sitecleaner02023-07-19T09:57:32ZSO:A and P sites0.8598577evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:21ZDUMMY:structuresevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:14:22ZStructure V0.9568593protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T15:27:19ZDUMMY:post-translocationRESULTStitle_217268Changes in ribosome conformation and eEF2 positions are coupled with IRES movement through the ribosome0.6416077complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:56ZGO:ribosome0.66172516proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:44ZPR:eEF20.89029235sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:04ZSO:IRES0.9118381complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:56ZGO:ribosomeRESULTStitle_317372Intersubunit rotationRESULTSparagraph17394Using the post-translocation S. cerevisiae 80S ribosome bound with the P and E site tRNAs as a reference (80S•2tRNA•mRNA), in which both the subunit rotation and the head-body swivel are 0°, we found that the ribosome adopts four globally distinct conformations in Structures I through V (Figure 1b; see also Figure 1—figure supplement 1 and Figure 2—source data 1). Structure I comprises the most rotated ribosome conformation (~10°), characteristic of pre-translocation hybrid-tRNA states. From Structure I to V, the body of the small subunit undergoes backward (reverse) rotation (Figure 2b; see also Figure 1—figure supplement 2 and Figure 2—figure supplement 1). Structures II and III are in mid-rotation conformations (~5°). Structure IV adopts a slightly rotated conformation (~1°). Structure V is in a nearly non-rotated conformation (0.5°), very similar to that of post-translocation ribosome-tRNA complexes. Thus, intersubunit rotation of ~9° from Structure I to V covers a nearly complete range of relative subunit positions, similar to what was reported for tRNA-bound yeast, bacterial and mammalian ribosomes.0.99220747protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T15:27:20ZDUMMY:post-translocation0.99947834speciescleaner02023-07-14T10:07:58ZMESH:S. cerevisiae0.998595complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:26:32ZGO:80S ribosome0.99935925protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:30:36ZDUMMY:bound with0.99726045sitecleaner02023-07-19T09:57:37ZSO:P and E sitechemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:06ZtRNAs0.99971163complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:44:25ZGO:80S•2tRNA•mRNAstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T13:50:13Zsubunitstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-17T08:56:47Zheadstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T14:09:34Zbody0.9979474complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:56ZGO:ribosomeevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:46:13ZStructures I through VevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:46:23ZStructure Iprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:47:51Zmost rotated0.95640725complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:56ZGO:ribosome0.9972074protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T15:24:43ZDUMMY:pre-translocation0.7733402protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:30:08ZDUMMY:hybrid-tRNAevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:46:37ZStructure I to Vstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T14:09:34Zbody0.95990837structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:39:03ZSO:small subunitevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:17:32ZStructures II and IIIprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:47:22Zmid-rotationevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:46:58ZStructure IVprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:47:37Zslightly rotatedevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:14:22ZStructure V0.7309394protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:29:42ZDUMMY:non-rotated0.99596024protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T15:27:20ZDUMMY:post-translocation0.99951434complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:51:53ZGO:ribosome-tRNAevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:47:08ZStructure I to Vstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T13:50:13Zsubunit0.9994242protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T09:48:16ZDUMMY:tRNA-bound0.99951315taxonomy_domaincleaner02023-07-17T08:49:33ZDUMMY:yeast0.9995684taxonomy_domaincleaner02023-07-14T09:36:04ZDUMMY:bacterial0.9995504taxonomy_domaincleaner02023-07-17T08:49:36ZDUMMY:mammalian0.9663577complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-19T09:22:31ZGO:ribosomesRESULTStitle_31853540S head swivelcomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-17T09:02:37Z40Sstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-17T08:56:47ZheadRESULTSparagraph18551The pattern of 40S head swivel between the structures is different from that of intersubunit rotation (Figures 2c and d; see also Figure 2—source data 1). As with the intersubunit rotation, the small head swivel (~1°) in the non-rotated Structure V is closest to that in the 80S•2tRNA•mRNA post-translocation ribosome. However in the pre-translocation intermediates (from Structure I to IV), the beak of the head domain first turns toward the large subunit and then backs off (Figure 2—figure supplement 1). This movement reflects the forward and reverse swivel. The head samples a mid-swiveled position in Structure I (12°), then a highly-swiveled position in Structures II and III (17°) and a less swiveled position in Structure IV (14°). The maximum head swivel is observed in the mid-rotated complexes II and III, in which PKI transitions from the A to P site, while eEF2 occupies the A site partially. By comparison, the similarly mid-rotated (4°) 80S•TSV IRES initiation complex, in the absence of eEF2, adopts a mid-swiveled position (~10°) (Figure 2c). These observations suggest that eEF2 is necessary for inducing or stabilizing the large head swivel of the 40S subunit characteristic for IRES translocation intermediates.0.9986701complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-17T09:02:37ZGO:40Sstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-17T08:56:47Zhead0.9972216evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:24ZDUMMY:structuresstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-17T08:56:47Zhead0.99944735protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:29:42ZDUMMY:non-rotatedevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:14:22ZStructure V0.99970686complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:44:25ZGO:80S•2tRNA•mRNAprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-14T15:27:20Zpost-translocationcomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:32:56Zribosomeprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-14T15:24:43Zpre-translocationevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:48:11ZStructure I to IV0.99885476structure_elementcleaner02023-07-17T08:56:47ZSO:head0.6931741structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:49:05ZSO:large subunit0.97973186structure_elementcleaner02023-07-17T08:56:47ZSO:head0.9279712protein_statecleaner02023-07-18T13:58:05ZDUMMY:mid-swiveledevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:48:58ZStructure I0.99621826protein_statecleaner02023-07-18T13:58:10ZDUMMY:highly-swiveledevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:17:32ZStructures II and IIIprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T12:45:58Zless swiveledevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:48:40ZStructure IVstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-17T08:56:47Zhead0.9993841protein_statecleaner02023-07-18T13:57:54ZDUMMY:mid-rotatedevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:48:29ZII and III0.9864746structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:40ZSO:PKI0.99730706sitecleaner02023-07-17T08:57:29ZSO:A to P site0.9989791proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:45ZPR:eEF20.9994684sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:51ZSO:A site0.94117004protein_statecleaner02023-07-18T13:57:52ZDUMMY:mid-rotatedcomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:45:12Z80S•TSV IRESprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-17T08:39:10Zinitiation0.99954855protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T09:55:35ZDUMMY:absence of0.9993574proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:45ZPR:eEF20.9826918protein_statecleaner02023-07-18T13:58:03ZDUMMY:mid-swiveled0.9996069proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:45ZPR:eEF2structure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-17T08:56:47Zheadcomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-17T09:02:37Z40Sstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T13:50:13ZsubunitsiteSO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:21:04ZIRESRESULTStitle_319800IRES rearrangements0.9982077sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:04ZSO:IRESelife-14874-fig3-figsupp1.jpgfig3s1FIGfig_title_caption19820Comparison of the TSV IRES and eEF2 positions in Structures I through V.0.9165737speciescleaner02023-07-14T09:24:19ZMESH:TSV0.9817011sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:04ZSO:IRES0.99873954proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:45ZPR:eEF2evidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:49:18ZStructures I through Velife-14874-fig3-figsupp1.jpgfig3s1FIGfig_caption19893(a) Positions of the IRES and eEF2 in the initiation, pre-translocation (I) and post-translocation (V) states, relative to the body of the 40S subunit (not shown) (b) Positions of the IRES and eEF2 in the initiation state (INIT) and intermediate steps of translocation (II, III and IV), relative to the body of the 40S subunit (not shown).

http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.14874.010RESULTSparagraph23965In each structure, the TSV IRES adopts a distinct conformation in the intersubunit space of the ribosome (Figures 3 and 4). The IRES (nt 6758–6952) consists of two globular parts (Figure 3a): the 5’-region (domains I and II, nt 6758–6888) and the PKI domain (domain III, nt 6889–6952). We collectively term domains I and II the 5’ domain. The PKI domain comprises PKI and stem loop 3 (SL3), which stacks on top of the stem of PKI. The 6953GCU triplet immediately following the PKI domain is the first codon of the open reading frame. In the eEF2-free 80S•IRES initiation complex (INIT), the bulk of the 5’-domain (nt. 6758–6888) binds near the E site, contacting the ribosome mostly by means of three protruding structural elements: the L1.1 region and stem loops 4 and 5 (SL4 and SL5). In Structures I to IV, these contacts remain as in the initiation complex (Figure 1a). Specifically, the L1.1 region interacts with the L1 stalk of the large subunit, while SL4 and SL5 bind at the side of the 40S head and interact with proteins uS7, uS11 and eS25 (Figure 3—figure supplement 2 and Figure 3—figure supplement 3; ribosomal proteins are termed according to). In Structures I-IV, the minor groove of SL4 (at nt 6840–6846) binds next to an α-helix of uS7, which is rich in positively charged residues (K212, K213, R219 and K222). The tip of SL4 binds in the vicinity of R157 in the β-hairpin of uS7 and of Y58 in uS11. The minor groove of SL5 (at nt 6862–6868) contacts the positively charged region of eS25 (R49, R58 and R68) (Figure 3—figure supplement 4). In Structure V, however, the density for SL5 is missing suggesting that SL5 is mobile, while weak SL4 density suggests that SL4 is shifted along the surface of uS7, ~20 Å away from its initial position (Figure 3—figure supplement 2c). The L1.1 region remains in contact with the L1 stalk (Figure 3—figure supplement 3).0.9970613evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:12ZDUMMY:structure0.99605346speciescleaner02023-07-14T09:24:19ZMESH:TSV0.8422998sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:05ZSO:IRES0.95629233complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:56ZGO:ribosome0.9447189sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:05ZSO:IRESresidue_rangeDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T08:04:47Z6758–69520.99967647structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:17:52ZSO:5’-regionstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T11:59:16ZIstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T11:59:25ZIIresidue_rangeDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T08:04:36Z6758–6888structure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:27:40ZPKIstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T11:59:40ZIIIresidue_rangeDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T08:04:58Z6889–6952structure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T14:18:10ZIstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T14:18:21ZII0.99967736structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:18:26ZSO:5’

http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.14874.018RESULTSparagraph26353The shape of the IRES changes considerably from the initiation state to Structures I through V, from an extended to compact to extended conformation (Figure 4; see also Figure 3—figure supplement 2a). Because in Structures I to IV the PKI domain shifts toward the P site, while the 5’ remains unchanged near the E site, the distance between the domains shortens (Figure 4). In the 80S•IRES initiation state, the A-site-bound PKI is separated from SL4 by almost 50 Å (Figure 4). In Structures I and II, the PKI is partially retracted from the A site and the distance from SL4 shortens to ~35 Å. As PKI moves toward the P site in Structures III and IV, the PKI domain approaches to within ~25 Å of SL4. Because the 5’-domain in the following structure (V) moves by ~20 Å along the 40S head, the IRES returns to an extended conformation (~45 Å) that is similar to that in the 80S•IRES initiation complex.0.99249226sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:05ZSO:IRESprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-17T08:39:11ZinitiationevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T12:02:48ZStructures I through V0.9996642protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:34:19ZDUMMY:extended0.99965656protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:34:26ZDUMMY:compact0.9996586protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:34:20ZDUMMY:extendedevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:14:45ZStructures I to IV0.9997297structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:40ZSO:PKI0.99946684sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:03:15ZSO:P site0.99946356sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:35:33ZSO:E site0.9997106complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:40:46ZGO:80S•IRESprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-17T08:39:11Zinitiation0.99922115protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:46:19ZDUMMY:A-site-bound0.99880826structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:40ZSO:PKI0.99958056structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:17:21ZSO:SL4evidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T12:03:10ZStructures I and II0.99573106structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:40ZSO:PKI0.99949205sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:51ZSO:A site0.9995528structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:17:21ZSO:SL40.8595263structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:40ZSO:PKI0.9995056sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:03:20ZSO:P siteevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T12:03:22ZStructures III and IV0.9995981structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:40ZSO:PKI0.99947983structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:17:21ZSO:SL40.9996444structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:19:01ZSO:5’-domainevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T12:03:39Zstructure (V)complex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-17T09:02:37Z40Sstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-17T08:56:48Zhead0.9931164sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:05ZSO:IRES0.99966455protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:34:20ZDUMMY:extendedcomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-18T14:04:04Z80S•IRESprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-17T08:39:11ZinitiationRESULTSparagraph27280Rearrangements of the IRES involve restructuring of several interactions with the ribosome. In Structure I, SL3 of the PKI domain is positioned between the A-site finger (nt 1008–1043 of 25S rRNA) and the P site of the 60S subunit, comprising helix 84 of 25S rRNA (nt. 2668–2687) and protein uL5 (Figure 3—figure supplement 6). This position of SL3 is ~25 Å away from that in the 80S•IRES initiation state, in which PKI and SL3 closely mimic the ASL and elbow of the A-site tRNA, respectively. As such, the transition from the initiation state to Structure I involves repositioning of SL3 around the A-site finger, resembling the transition between the pre-translocation A/P and A/P* tRNA. The second set of major structural changes involves interaction of the P site region of the large subunit with the hinge point of the IRES bending between the 5´ domain and the PKI domain (nt. 6886–6890). In the highly bent Structures III and IV, the hinge region interacts with the universally conserved uL5 and the C-terminal tail of eL42 (Figure 3—figure supplement 7). However, in the extended conformations, these parts of the IRES and the 60S subunit are separated by more than 10 Å, suggesting that an interaction between them stabilizes the bent conformations but not the extended ones. Another local rearrangement concerns loop 3, also known as the variable loop region , which connects the ASL- and mRNA-like parts of PKI. This loop is poorly resolved in Structures I through IV, suggesting conformational flexibility in agreement with structural studies of the isolated PKI and biochemical studies of unbound IRESs. In Structure V, loop 3 is bound in the 40S E site and the backbone of loop 3 near the codon-like part of PKI (at nt. 6945–6946) interacts with R148 and R157 in β-hairpin of uS7. The interaction of loop 3 backbone with uS7 resembles that of the anticodon-stem loop of E-site tRNA in the post-translocation 80S•2tRNA•mRNA structure (Figure 3—figure supplement 5). Ordering of loop 3 suggests that this flexible region contributes to the stabilization of the PKI domain in the post-translocation state. This interpretation is consistent with the recent observation that alterations in loop 3 of the CrPV IRES result in decreased efficiency of

http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.14874.019RESULTSparagraph31763Elongation factor eEF2 in all five structures is bound with GDP and sordarin (Figure 5). The elongation factor consists of three dynamic superdomains: an N-terminal globular superdomain formed by the G (GTPase) domain (domain I) and domain II; a linker domain III; and a C-terminal superdomain comprising domains IV and V (Figure 5a). Domain IV extends from the main body and is critical for translocation catalyzed by eEF2 or EF-G. ADP-ribosylation of eEF2 at the tip of domain IV or deletion of domain IV from EF-G abrogate translocation. In post-translocation-like 80S•tRNA•eEF2 complexes, domain IV binds in the 40S A site, suggesting direct involvement of domain IV in translocation of tRNA from the A to P site. GDP in our structures is bound in the GTPase center (Figures 5d, e and f) and sordarin is sandwiched between the β-platforms of domains III and V (Figures 5g and h), as in the structure of free eEF2•sordarin complex.0.999284protein_typecleaner02023-07-19T09:17:40ZMESH:Elongation factor0.99977976proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:46ZPR:eEF20.99828666evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:24ZDUMMY:structures0.999545protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:30:36ZDUMMY:bound withchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:37:39ZGDPchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:37:53Zsordarin0.99952257protein_typecleaner02023-07-19T09:17:41ZMESH:elongation factor0.99952376structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:21:20ZSO:superdomainsstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T12:23:38Zsuperdomainstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T14:21:49ZG (GTPase) domainstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T12:09:24ZIstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T12:09:39ZIIstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T08:01:13Zlinker domain III0.99970895structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T12:23:38ZSO:superdomainstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T12:09:59ZIVstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T12:10:07ZVstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T13:38:54ZIVstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T14:09:34Zbody0.9998116proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:46ZPR:eEF20.99928755proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:36:12ZPR:EF-G0.98917866ptmcleaner02023-07-19T14:34:33ZMESH:ADP-ribosylation0.9998412proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:46ZPR:eEF20.98412645structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:21:54ZSO:IV0.99782866experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-17T08:36:38ZMESH:deletion0.9721094structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:22:01ZSO:IV0.9992158proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:36:12ZPR:EF-Gprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-14T15:27:20Zpost-translocation0.99970853complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T10:02:51ZGO:80S•tRNA•eEF20.98174274structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:22:05ZSO:IVcomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-14T10:03:24Z40SsiteSO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:28:51ZA sitestructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T12:10:51ZIVchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:21ZtRNA0.9992967sitecleaner02023-07-17T08:57:29ZSO:A to P sitechemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:37:40ZGDP0.99895847evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:24ZDUMMY:structuresprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T12:48:08Zbound in0.99005324sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:05:32ZSO:GTPase centerchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:37:55Zsordarin0.9994995structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:22:11ZSO:β-platformsstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T12:10:25ZIIIstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T12:10:34ZV0.9964886evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:12ZDUMMY:structure0.99968815protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:48:32ZDUMMY:free0.99971986complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T10:01:27ZGO:eEF2•sordarinRESULTSparagraph32707The global conformations of eEF2 (Figure 5a) are similar in these structures (all-atom RMSD ≤ 2 Å), but the positions of eEF2 relative to the 40S subunit differ substantially as a result of 40S subunit rotation (Figure 2—source data 1). From Structure I to V, eEF2 is rigidly attached to the GTPase-associated center of the 60S subunit. The GTPase-associated center comprises the P stalk (L11 and L7/L12 stalk in bacteria) and the sarcin-ricin loop (SRL, nt 3012–3042). The tips of 25S rRNA helices 43 and 44 of the P stalk (nucleotides G1242 and A1270, respectively) stack on V754 and Y744 of domain V. An αββ motif of the eukaryote-specific protein P0 (aa 126–154) packs in the crevice between the long α-helix D (aa 172–188) of the GTPase domain and the β-sheet region (aa 246–263) of the GTPase domain insert (or G’ insert) of eEF2 (secondary-structure nomenclatures for eEF2 and EF-G are the same). Although the P/L11 stalk is known to be dynamic, its position remains unchanged from Structure I to V: all-atom root-mean-square differences for the 25S rRNA of the P stalk (nt 1223–1286) are within 2.5 Å. However, with respect to its position in the 80S•IRES complex in the absence of eEF2 and in the 80S•2tRNA•mRNA complex, the P stalk is shifted by ~13 Å toward the A site (Figure 2d). The sarcin-ricin loop interacts with the GTP-binding site of eEF2 (Figures 5d and f). While the overall mode of this interaction is similar to that seen in 70S•EF-G crystal structures, there is an important local difference between Structure I and Structures II-V in switch loop I, as discussed below.0.99981755proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:46ZPR:eEF20.997101evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:25ZDUMMY:structures0.8492427evidencecleaner02023-07-19T14:11:48ZDUMMY:RMSD0.9998332proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:46ZPR:eEF2complex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-17T09:02:37Z40Sstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T13:50:13Zsubunitcomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-17T09:02:37Z40Sstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T13:50:13ZsubunitevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T12:11:08ZStructure I to V0.9997104proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:46ZPR:eEF20.9939383sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:05:40ZSO:GTPase-associated centercomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-18T13:49:58Z60Sstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T13:50:13Zsubunit0.99371576sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:05:43ZSO:GTPase-associated center0.9997053structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T12:11:57ZSO:P stalk0.9997775structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:22:17ZSO:L110.9998105structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:22:20ZSO:L70.99622995structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:22:24ZSO:L120.90342546structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:22:42ZSO:stalk0.9993674taxonomy_domaincleaner02023-07-17T08:49:56ZDUMMY:bacteria0.9996973structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:47:34ZSO:sarcin-ricin loop0.9998029structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:47:41ZSO:SRLresidue_rangeDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T07:59:59Z3012–3042chemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:28:14Z25S rRNAstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T14:23:08Zhelices 43 and 440.9997042structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T12:11:59ZSO:P stalkresidue_name_numberDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T08:00:15ZG1242residue_name_numberDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T08:00:29ZA1270bond_interactionMESH:melaniev@ebi.ac.uk2023-07-28T14:17:52Zstack0.99989116residue_name_numbercleaner02023-07-18T14:36:23ZDUMMY:V7540.9998895residue_name_numbercleaner02023-07-18T14:36:29ZDUMMY:Y7440.99813145structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:23:13ZSO:V0.9997227structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:23:17ZSO:αββ motif0.94464266taxonomy_domaincleaner02023-07-17T08:50:28ZDUMMY:eukaryote0.9955135proteincleaner02023-07-19T09:25:36ZPR:P0residue_rangeDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T07:59:23Z126–154structure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T14:23:39Zlong α-helix Dresidue_rangeDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T07:59:37Z172–1880.99969864structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:23:44ZSO:GTPase domain0.99960715structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:23:48ZSO:β-sheet regionresidue_rangeDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T07:31:21Z246–2630.9996789structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:23:54ZSO:GTPase domain insert0.9996882structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:23:57ZSO:G’ insert0.9998374proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:46ZPR:eEF20.99983907proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:46ZPR:eEF20.99964243proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:36:12ZPR:EF-G0.9937736structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:24:01ZSO:P/L11 stalkevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T12:11:20ZStructure I to V0.99692535evidencecleaner02023-07-19T14:11:52ZDUMMY:root-mean-square differenceschemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:28:14Z25S rRNA0.9997188structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T12:11:59ZSO:P stalkresidue_rangeDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T07:31:08Z1223–12860.99971396complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:40:46ZGO:80S•IRES0.99948514protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T09:55:35ZDUMMY:absence of0.9996878proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:46ZPR:eEF20.9997269complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:44:25ZGO:80S•2tRNA•mRNA0.9996971structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T12:12:00ZSO:P stalk0.99947333sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:51ZSO:A site0.9996922structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:47:34ZSO:sarcin-ricin loop0.99954873sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:05:49ZSO:GTP-binding site0.99984443proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:46ZPR:eEF20.9997264complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:39:50ZGO:70S•EF-G0.99957466evidencecleaner02023-07-17T08:45:17ZDUMMY:crystal structuresevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T12:11:31ZStructure IevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T12:11:42ZStructures II-V0.9861694structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T12:12:06ZSO:switch loop Ielife-14874-fig6-figsupp1.jpgfig6s1FIGfig_title_caption34340Repositioning (sliding) of the positively-charged cluster of domain IV of eEF2 over the phosphate backbone (red) of the 18S helices 33 and 34.siteSO:cleaner02023-07-19T12:12:44Zpositively-charged clusterstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T12:12:31ZIV0.99980754proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:46ZPR:eEF20.99446136structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:24:11ZSO:18S helices 33 and 34elife-14874-fig6-figsupp1.jpgfig6s1FIGfig_caption34483Structures I through V are shown.

http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.14874.022RESULTSparagraph35839There are two modest but noticeable domain rearrangements between Structures I and V. Unlike in free eEF2, which can sample large movements of at least 50 Å of the C-terminal superdomain relative to the N-terminal superdomain (Figure 5c), eEF2 undergoes moderate repositioning of domain IV (~3 Å; Figure 5a) and domain III (~5 Å; Figure 6d). This limited flexibility of the ribosome-bound eEF2 is likely the result of simultaneous fixation of eEF2 superdomains, via domains I and V, by the GTPase-associated center of the large subunit. Domain IV of eEF2 binds at the 40S A site in Structures I to V but the mode of interaction differs in each complex (Figure 6). Because eEF2 is rigidly attached to the 60S subunit and does not undergo large inter-subunit rearrangements, gradual entry of domain IV into the A site between Structures I and V is due to 40S subunit rotation and head swivel. eEF2 settles into the A site from Structure I to V, as the tip of domain IV shifts by ~10 Å relative to the body and by ~20 Å relative to the swiveling head. Modest intra-eEF2 shifts of domain IV between Structures I to V outline a stochastic trajectory (Figure 5a), consistent with local adjustments of the domain in the A site. At the central region of eEF2, domains II and III contact the 40S body (mainly at nucleotides 48–52 and 429–432 of 18S rRNA helix 5 and uS12). From Structure I to V, these central domains migrate by ~10 Å along the 40S surface (Figure 6c). Comparison of eEF2 conformations reveals that in Structure V, domain III is displaced as a result of interaction with uS12, as discussed below.evidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T12:15:18ZStructures I and V0.99964416protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:48:46ZDUMMY:free0.9998368proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:46ZPR:eEF20.9996706structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T12:23:38ZSO:superdomain0.9996793structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T12:23:38ZSO:superdomain0.99982363proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:46ZPR:eEF20.51207805structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:24:43ZSO:IV0.987593structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:24:46ZSO:III0.99947435protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T09:33:14ZDUMMY:ribosome-bound0.99983263proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:46ZPR:eEF20.999838proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:46ZPR:eEF20.9995493structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:24:50ZSO:superdomains0.8187614structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:24:54ZSO:I0.91360235structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:24:56ZSO:VsiteSO:cleaner02023-07-19T10:06:19ZGTPase-associated center0.8994949structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:49:05ZSO:large subunitstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T12:15:38ZIV0.99981886proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:46ZPR:eEF2complex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-14T10:05:52Z40SsiteSO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:28:52ZA siteevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T12:15:58ZStructures I to V0.99981755proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:46ZPR:eEF2complex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-18T13:49:58Z60Sstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T13:50:13Zsubunitstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T13:50:13Zsubunitstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T14:25:14ZIV0.999347sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:52ZSO:A siteevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T12:15:50ZStructures I and Vcomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-17T09:02:38Z40Sstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T13:50:13Zsubunitstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-17T08:56:48Zhead0.99980146proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:47ZPR:eEF20.9995426sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:52ZSO:A siteevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T12:16:10ZStructure I to V0.7244747structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:25:21ZSO:IVstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T14:09:34Zbody0.9873011structure_elementcleaner02023-07-17T08:56:48ZSO:headproteinPR:cleaner02023-07-14T09:30:47ZeEF20.54072547structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:25:25ZSO:IVevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T12:16:22ZStructures I to V0.99956334sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:52ZSO:A site0.99982905proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:47ZPR:eEF2structure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T12:16:54ZIIstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T12:17:02ZIII0.9813007complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-17T09:02:38ZGO:40S0.86465216structure_elementcleaner02023-07-18T14:09:34ZSO:bodyresidue_rangeDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T07:30:15Z48–52residue_rangeDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T07:30:28Z429–432chemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:33:20Z18S rRNA0.99123967structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:25:31ZSO:helix 50.8519885proteincleaner02023-07-18T14:37:08ZPR:uS12evidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T12:16:36ZStructure I to V0.77772486complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-17T09:02:38ZGO:40S0.9997981proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:47ZPR:eEF2evidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:14:22ZStructure V0.6926696structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:25:37ZSO:III0.9610733proteincleaner02023-07-18T14:37:08ZPR:uS12RESULTSparagraph37466In summary, between Structures I and V, a step-wise translocation of PKI by ~15 Å from the A to P site - within the 40S subunit – occurs simultaneously with the ~11 Å side-way entry of domain IV into the A site coupled with ~3 to 5 Å inter-domain rearrangements in eEF2. These shifts occur during the reverse rotation of the 40S body coupled with the forward-then-reverse head swivel. To elucidate the detailed structural mechanism of IRES translocation and the roles of eEF2 and ribosome rearrangements, we describe in the following sections the interactions of PKI and eEF2 with the ribosomal A and P sites in Structures I through V (Figure 2g; see also Figure 1—figure supplement 1).evidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T12:17:28ZStructures I and V0.99981135structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:40ZSO:PKI0.9982888sitecleaner02023-07-17T08:57:29ZSO:A to P sitecomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-17T09:02:38Z40Sstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T13:50:13Zsubunit0.95864165structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T12:17:47ZSO:IV0.99957335sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:52ZSO:A site0.9997912proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:47ZPR:eEF20.9582871complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-17T09:02:38ZGO:40S0.4921384structure_elementcleaner02023-07-18T14:09:34ZSO:bodystructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-17T08:56:48Zhead0.73164666sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:06ZSO:IRES0.99975234proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:47ZPR:eEF2complex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:32:56Zribosome0.9998122structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:40ZSO:PKI0.99979895proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:47ZPR:eEF20.9992882sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:06:35ZSO:A and P sitesevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T12:17:40ZStructures I through VRESULTStitle_238166Structure I represents a pre-translocation IRES and initial entry of eEF2 in a GTP-like stateevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T12:18:01ZStructure I0.97620755protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T15:24:43ZDUMMY:pre-translocation0.72210205sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:06ZSO:IRES0.9996119proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:47ZPR:eEF2chemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:12:27ZGTPRESULTSparagraph38260In the fully rotated Structure I, PKI is shifted toward the P site by ~3 Å relative to its position in the initiation complex but maintains interactions with the partially swiveled head. At the head, C1274 of the 18S rRNA (C1054 in E. coli) base pairs with the first nucleotide of the ORF immediately downstream of PKI. The C1274:G6953 base pair provides a stacking platform for the codon-anticodon–like helix of PKI. We therefore define C1274 as the foundation of the 'head A site'. Accordingly, we use U1191 (G966 in E. coli) and C1637 (C1400 in E. coli) as the reference points of the 'head P site' and 'body P site' (Figure 2g), respectively, because these nucleotides form a stacking foundation for the fully translocated mRNA-tRNA helix in tRNA-bound structures and in our post-translocation Structure V discussed below.0.99953103protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:49:02ZDUMMY:fully rotatedevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T12:18:12ZStructure I0.99581677structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:40ZSO:PKI0.99951875sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:06:39ZSO:P site0.96036226complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-18T14:08:05ZGO:initiation complex0.9994416protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:49:09ZDUMMY:partially swiveled0.7870612structure_elementcleaner02023-07-17T08:56:48ZSO:head0.979624structure_elementcleaner02023-07-17T08:56:48ZSO:headresidue_name_numberDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T07:28:18ZC1274chemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:33:20Z18S rRNAresidue_name_numberDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T07:28:31ZC10540.9993178speciescleaner02023-07-14T09:31:43ZMESH:E. coli0.6925956structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T09:44:51ZSO:ORF0.8231169structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:40ZSO:PKIresidue_name_numberDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T07:28:19ZC1274residue_name_numberDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T07:28:44ZG6953siteSO:melaniev@ebi.ac.uk2023-07-21T13:08:33Zstacking platform0.9618395structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:25:43ZSO:codon-anticodon–like helix0.9990872structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:41ZSO:PKIresidue_name_numberDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T07:28:19ZC12740.9973279structure_elementcleaner02023-07-17T08:56:48ZSO:head0.9724035sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:52ZSO:A siteresidue_name_numberDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T07:28:57ZU1191residue_name_numberDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T07:29:09ZG9660.999213speciescleaner02023-07-14T09:31:43ZMESH:E. coliresidue_name_numberDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T07:29:20ZC1637residue_name_numberDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T07:29:35ZC14000.999264speciescleaner02023-07-14T09:31:43ZMESH:E. coli0.9984804structure_elementcleaner02023-07-17T08:56:48ZSO:head0.9994645sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:06:43ZSO:P site0.99849963structure_elementcleaner02023-07-18T14:09:34ZSO:body0.9975149sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:06:46ZSO:P site0.99953794protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:37:56ZDUMMY:fully translocatedstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T13:05:39ZmRNA-tRNA helix0.99953336protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T09:48:16ZDUMMY:tRNA-bound0.99887365evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:25ZDUMMY:structures0.9613529protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T15:27:20ZDUMMY:post-translocationevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:14:22ZStructure Velife-14874-fig7.jpgfig7FIGfig_title_caption39092Interactions of the residues at the eEF2 tip with the decoding center of the IRES-bound ribosome.0.99824035proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:47ZPR:eEF20.9988792sitecleaner02023-07-18T14:50:01ZSO:decoding center0.99951357protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T10:07:05ZDUMMY:IRES-bound0.9953264complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:56ZGO:ribosomeelife-14874-fig7.jpgfig7FIGfig_caption39190Key elements of the decoding center of the 'locked' initiation structure, 'unlocked' Structure I, and post-translocation Structure V (this work) are shown.

The translocase interacts with the 40S body but does not contact the head (Figures 5b and 6a; Figure 5—figure supplement 1). Domain IV is partially engaged with the body A site. The tip of domain IV is wedged between PKI and decoding-center nucleotides A1755 and A1756, which are bulged out of h44. This tip contains the histidine-diphthamide triad (H583, H694 and Diph699), which interacts with the codon-anticodon-like helix of PKI and A1756 (Figure 7). Histidines 583 and 694 interact with the phosphate backbone of the anticodon-like strand (at G6907 and C6908). Diphthamide is a unique posttranslational modification conserved in archaeal and eukaryotic EF2 (at residue 699 in S. cerevisiae) and involves addition of a ~7-Å long 3-carboxyamido-3-(trimethylamino)-propyl moiety to the histidine imidazole ring at CE1. The trimethylamino end of Diph699 packs over A1756 (Figure 7). The opposite surface of the tail is oriented toward the minor-groove side of the second base pair of the codon-anticodon helix (G6906:C6951). Thus, in comparison with the initiation state, the histidine-diphthamide tip of eEF2 replaces the codon-anticodon–like helix of PKI. The splitting of the interaction of A1755-A1756 and PKI is achieved by providing the histidine-diphthamine tip as a binding partner for both A1756 and the minor groove of the codon-anticodon helix (Figure 7).0.9997521proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:47ZPR:eEF2complex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-17T09:02:38Z40Sstructure_elementSO:melaniev@ebi.ac.uk2023-07-18T13:46:37Zsubunitstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T13:50:13ZsubunitevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T12:19:45ZStructure IevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:27:59ZStructures II to V0.98683816protein_typecleaner02023-07-17T08:38:45ZMESH:translocase0.989749complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-17T09:02:38ZGO:40S0.73024505structure_elementcleaner02023-07-18T14:09:34ZSO:body0.8404604structure_elementcleaner02023-07-17T08:56:48ZSO:head0.9073289structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:25:51ZSO:IVstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T14:13:59ZbodysiteSO:cleaner02023-07-18T14:15:22ZA sitestructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T12:19:04ZIV0.9950157structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:41ZSO:PKIsiteSO:cleaner02023-07-19T13:42:01Zdecoding-centerresidue_name_numberDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T07:27:00ZA1755residue_name_numberDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T07:27:13ZA17560.9980547sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:07:21ZSO:histidine-diphthamide triad0.99989474residue_name_numbercleaner02023-07-18T14:40:23ZDUMMY:H5830.99989736residue_name_numbercleaner02023-07-18T14:40:28ZDUMMY:H6940.9998921ptmcleaner02023-07-18T14:38:53ZMESH:Diph6990.99952817structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:13:13ZSO:codon-anticodon-like helix0.99750704structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:41ZSO:PKIresidue_name_numberDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T07:27:13ZA1756residue_name_numberDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-18T14:40:59ZHistidines 583 and 6940.99910843structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:26:01ZSO:anticodon-like strandresidue_name_numberDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T07:27:49ZG6907residue_name_numberDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T07:27:35ZC69080.8746058ptmcleaner02023-07-18T14:09:05ZMESH:Diphthamide0.9992817protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:49:31ZDUMMY:conserved0.9993942taxonomy_domaincleaner02023-07-17T08:51:41ZDUMMY:archaeal0.9991135taxonomy_domaincleaner02023-07-14T09:35:56ZDUMMY:eukaryotic0.99899644proteincleaner02023-07-19T09:25:45ZPR:EF20.99668854residue_numbercleaner02023-07-19T14:35:12ZDUMMY:6990.99941987speciescleaner02023-07-14T10:07:55ZMESH:S. cerevisiae0.99890375residue_namecleaner02023-07-19T09:16:47ZSO:histidine0.99988616ptmcleaner02023-07-18T14:40:10ZMESH:Diph699residue_name_numberDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T07:27:13ZA17560.92978686sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:07:45ZSO:minor-groove0.9991538structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:26:24ZSO:codon-anticodon helixresidue_name_numberDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:28:28ZG6906residue_name_numberDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:28:40ZC6951protein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-17T08:39:11ZinitiationsiteSO:cleaner02023-07-19T10:10:33Zhistidine-diphthamide tip0.99968684proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:47ZPR:eEF20.99952126structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:26:31ZSO:codon-anticodon–like helix0.9989303structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:41ZSO:PKIresidue_name_numberDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T07:27:01ZA1755residue_name_numberDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T07:27:13ZA17560.99835086structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:41ZSO:PKIsiteSO:cleaner02023-07-19T10:30:01Zhistidine-diphthamine tipresidue_name_numberDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T07:27:13ZA17560.9950962sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:02:15ZSO:minor groove0.9993161structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:26:26ZSO:codon-anticodon helixRESULTSparagraph41573Unlike in Structures II to V, the conformation of the eEF2 GTPase center in Structure I resembles that of a GTP-bound translocase (Figure 5e). In translational GTPases, switch loops I and II are involved in the GTPase activity (reviewed in). Switch loop II (aa 105–110), which carries the catalytic H108 (H92 in E. coli EF-G; is well resolved in all five structures. The histidine resides next to the backbone of G3028 of the sarcin-ricin loop and near the diphosphate of GDP (Figure 5e). By contrast, switch loop I (aa 50–70 in S. cerevisiae eEF2) is resolved only in Structure I (Figure 5—figure supplement 2). The N-terminal part of the loop (aa 50–60) is sandwiched between the tip of helix 14 (415CAAA418) of the 18S rRNA of the 40S subunit and helix A (aa 32–42) of eEF2 (Figure 5d). Bulged A416 interacts with the switch loop in the vicinity of D53. Next to GDP, the C-terminal part of the switch loop (aa 61–67) adopts a helical fold. As such, the conformations of SWI and the GTPase center in general are similar to those observed in ribosome-bound EF-Tu and EF-G in the presence of GTP analogs.evidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:29:09ZStructures II to V0.9998616proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:47ZPR:eEF20.99855995sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:07:49ZSO:GTPase centerevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:29:20ZStructure I0.9995056protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:40:56ZDUMMY:GTP-bound0.9988091protein_typecleaner02023-07-17T08:38:45ZMESH:translocase0.98535705protein_typecleaner02023-07-17T08:43:31ZMESH:translational GTPases0.9974408structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:26:36ZSO:switch loops I and IIprotein_typeMESH:cleaner02023-07-19T09:20:23ZGTPase0.99858505structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:26:40ZSO:Switch loop IIresidue_rangeDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T09:18:58Z105–1100.99701595protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:49:39ZDUMMY:catalytic0.99989295residue_name_numbercleaner02023-07-18T14:42:00ZDUMMY:H1080.99989355residue_name_numbercleaner02023-07-18T14:42:07ZDUMMY:H920.99941176speciescleaner02023-07-14T09:31:43ZMESH:E. coli0.9996832proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:36:12ZPR:EF-G0.99816775evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:25ZDUMMY:structures0.9992586residue_namecleaner02023-07-19T09:16:52ZSO:histidine0.9999068residue_name_numbercleaner02023-07-18T14:42:18ZDUMMY:G30280.99961376structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:47:34ZSO:sarcin-ricin loopchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:37:40ZGDP0.99871475structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T12:12:07ZSO:switch loop Iresidue_rangeDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T09:19:09Z50–700.9994602speciescleaner02023-07-14T10:07:58ZMESH:S. cerevisiae0.9998534proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:47ZPR:eEF2evidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:29:34ZStructure I0.99975973structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:26:46ZSO:loopresidue_rangeDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T09:19:20Z50–600.99965966structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:26:53ZSO:helix 14structure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T14:32:32Z415CAAA418chemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:33:20Z18S rRNAcomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-17T09:02:38Z40Sstructure_elementSO:melaniev@ebi.ac.uk2023-07-18T13:46:37Zsubunitstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T13:50:13Zsubunit0.9996563structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:27:09ZSO:helix Aresidue_rangeDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T09:19:32Z32–420.9998455proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:47ZPR:eEF20.9982673protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:49:44ZDUMMY:Bulged0.9999093residue_name_numbercleaner02023-07-18T14:42:27ZDUMMY:A4160.99888873structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:27:16ZSO:switch loop0.99990916residue_name_numbercleaner02023-07-18T14:42:33ZDUMMY:D53chemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:37:40ZGDP0.9993894structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:27:20ZSO:switch loopresidue_rangeDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T09:19:42Z61–67protein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T09:20:59Zhelical fold0.9956304structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T09:20:10ZSO:SWI0.99862015sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:07:54ZSO:GTPase center0.9995088protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T09:33:14ZDUMMY:ribosome-bound0.9996894proteincleaner02023-07-19T09:25:59ZPR:EF-Tu0.9996955proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:36:12ZPR:EF-Gprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-14T09:55:43Zpresence ofchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:12:27ZGTPRESULTStitle_242690Structure II reveals PKI between the body A and P sites and eEF2 partially advanced into the A siteevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:30:38ZStructure II0.7873689structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:41ZSO:PKI0.99036425structure_elementcleaner02023-07-18T14:09:34ZSO:body0.8719973sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:07:58ZSO:A and P sites0.99751306proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:47ZPR:eEF20.99937135sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:52ZSO:A siteRESULTSparagraph42790In Structure II, relative to Structure I, PKI is further shifted along the 40S body, traversing ~4 Å toward the P site (Figures 2e, f, and g), while stacking on C1274 at the head A site.

Among the five structures, the PKI domain is least ordered in Structure III and lacks density for SL3. The map allows placement of PKI at the body P site (Figure 1—figure supplement 3). Thus, in Structure III, PKI has translocated along the 40S body, but the head remains fully swiveled so that PKI is between the head A and P sites. Lower resolution of the map in this region suggests that PKI is somewhat destabilized in the vicinity of the body P site in the absence of stacking with the foundations of the head A site (C1274) or P site (U1191). The position of eEF2 is similar to that in Structure II.0.9960608structure_elementcleaner02023-07-17T08:56:48ZSO:headevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:32:10ZStructure IIIevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:32:22ZStructure II0.9972505complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-17T09:02:38ZGO:40Sstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T14:13:01ZheadsiteSO:cleaner02023-07-18T14:13:11ZA sitestructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T14:13:27ZbodysiteSO:cleaner02023-07-18T14:13:39ZP siteevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:32:34ZStructure II0.99680847evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:25ZDUMMY:structures0.99970204structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:41ZSO:PKIevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:32:46ZStructure III0.9980464evidencecleaner02023-07-19T14:11:58ZDUMMY:density0.99959975structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:16:56ZSO:SL30.9996086evidencecleaner02023-07-19T14:12:03ZDUMMY:map0.9989035structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:41ZSO:PKIstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T14:13:59ZbodysiteSO:cleaner02023-07-18T14:14:31ZP siteevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:32:59ZStructure III0.9979552structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:41ZSO:PKI0.9871639complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-17T09:02:38ZGO:40S0.83239126structure_elementcleaner02023-07-18T14:09:34ZSO:body0.98784155structure_elementcleaner02023-07-17T08:56:48ZSO:head0.9990567protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:49:55ZDUMMY:fully swiveled0.99851257structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:41ZSO:PKI0.96826124structure_elementcleaner02023-07-17T08:56:48ZSO:head0.99928623sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:08:58ZSO:A and P sites0.99964607evidencecleaner02023-07-19T14:12:08ZDUMMY:map0.99689925structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:41ZSO:PKIstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T14:13:58ZbodysiteSO:cleaner02023-07-18T14:14:13ZP siteprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-14T09:55:35Zabsence ofbond_interactionMESH:melaniev@ebi.ac.uk2023-07-28T14:17:52Zstackingstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T14:14:38ZheadsiteSO:cleaner02023-07-18T14:14:57ZA site0.9998996residue_name_numbercleaner02023-07-18T14:33:17ZDUMMY:C12740.9994837sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:09:03ZSO:P site0.9998987residue_name_numbercleaner02023-07-18T14:33:25ZDUMMY:U11910.9988851proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:47ZPR:eEF2evidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:33:12ZStructure IIRESULTStitle_244614Structure IV represents a highly bent IRES with PKI partially accommodated in the P siteevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:33:24ZStructure IV0.9995568protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:49:58ZDUMMY:highly bent0.721137sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:06ZSO:IRES0.95081747structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:41ZSO:PKI0.99952155sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:09:09ZSO:P siteRESULTSparagraph44703In Structure IV, the 40S subunit is almost non-rotated relative to the 60S subunit, and the 40S head is mid-swiveled.

In Structure V, protein uS12 is shifted along with the 40S body as a result of intersubunit rotation. In this position, uS12 forms extensive interactions with eEF2 domains II and III. Specifically, the C-terminal tail of uS12 packs against the β-barrel of domain II, while the β-barrel of uS12 packs against helix A of domain III. This shifts the tip of helix A of domain III (at aa 500) by ~5 Å (relative to that in Structure I) toward domain I. Although domain III remains in contact with domain V, the shift occurs in the direction that could eventually disconnect the β-platforms of these domains.0.9998037proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:47ZPR:eEF20.98563147evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:25ZDUMMY:Structuresstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T10:34:55ZIII0.9951474proteincleaner02023-07-18T14:37:08ZPR:uS12evidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:14:22ZStructure V0.99933136proteincleaner02023-07-18T14:37:08ZPR:uS12complex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-17T09:02:38Z40Sstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T14:09:35Zbody0.99940455proteincleaner02023-07-18T14:37:08ZPR:uS120.9998267proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:47ZPR:eEF2structure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T10:35:12ZIIstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T10:35:25ZIII0.99852663structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:19:39ZSO:C-terminal tail0.99970776proteincleaner02023-07-18T14:37:08ZPR:uS120.9995521structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:28:02ZSO:β-barrelstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T10:35:55ZII0.9995248structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:28:06ZSO:β-barrel0.9996666proteincleaner02023-07-18T14:37:08ZPR:uS120.99963236structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:28:10ZSO:helix Astructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T10:35:40ZIII0.9996503structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:28:15ZSO:helix A0.99836904structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:28:22ZSO:IIIresidue_numberDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T14:28:49Z500evidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:36:06ZStructure Istructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T10:36:21ZIstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T10:36:35ZIII0.99888307structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:28:30ZSO:V0.99947006structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:28:57ZSO:β-platformsRESULTSparagraph46931Domain IV of eEF2 is fully accommodated in the A site.

http://dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.14874.025DISCUSSparagraph48823In this work we have captured the structures of the TSV IRES, whose PKI samples positions between the A and P sites (Structures I–IV), as well as in the P site (Structure V). We propose that together with the previously reported initiation state, these structures represent the trajectory of eEF2-induced IRES translocation (shown as an animation in http://labs.umassmed.edu/korostelevlab/msc/iresmovie.gif and Video 1). Our structures reveal previously unseen intermediate states of eEF2 or EF-G engagement with the A site, providing the structural basis for the mechanism of translocase action. Furthermore, they provide insight into the mechanism of eEF2•GTP association with the pre-translocation ribosome and eEF2•GDP dissociation from the post-translocation ribosome, also delineating the mechanism of translation inhibition by the antifungal drug sordarin. In summary, the reported ensemble of structures substantially enhances our understanding of the translocation mechanism, including that of tRNAs as discussed below.0.99793327evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:25ZDUMMY:structures0.9551537speciescleaner02023-07-14T09:24:19ZMESH:TSV0.80141485sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:06ZSO:IRES0.80973506structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:41ZSO:PKI0.9995227sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:12:08ZSO:A and P sitesevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:15:05ZStructures I–IV0.99955225sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:13:51ZSO:P siteevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:14:20ZStructure Vprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-17T08:39:11Zinitiation0.9376766evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:25ZDUMMY:structures0.96496916proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:48ZPR:eEF2siteSO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:21:06ZIRES0.99713254evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:25ZDUMMY:structures0.99933076proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:48ZPR:eEF20.95569724proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:36:12ZPR:EF-G0.99951375sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:52ZSO:A site0.9086211protein_typecleaner02023-07-17T08:38:45ZMESH:translocase0.99914217complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:31:05ZGO:eEF2•GTPprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-14T15:24:43Zpre-translocation0.95648843complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:56ZGO:ribosome0.9993141complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T15:19:52ZGO:eEF2•GDPprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-14T15:27:20Zpost-translocation0.9844319complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:56ZGO:ribosomechemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:37:55Zsordarin0.98899066evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:25ZDUMMY:structureschemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:06ZtRNAsDISCUSSparagraph49858Translocation of the TSV IRES on the 40S subunit globally resembles a step of an inchworm (Figure 4; see also Figure 3—figure supplement 2). At the start (initiation state), the IRES adopts an extended conformation (extended inchworm). The front 'legs' (SL4 and SL5) of the 5’-domain (front end) are attached to the 40S head proteins uS7, uS11 and eS25 (Figure 3—figure supplement 2). PKI, representing the hind end, is bound in the A site. In the first sub-step (Structures I to IV), the hind end advances from the A to the P site and approaches the front end, which remains attached to the 40S surface. This shortens the distance between PKI and SL4 by up to 20 Å relative to the initiating IRES structure, resulting in a bent IRES conformation (bent inchworm). Finally (Structures IV to V), as the hind end is accommodated in the P site, the front 'legs' advance by departing from their initial binding sites. This converts the IRES into an extended conformation, rendering the inchworm prepared for the next translocation step. Notably, at all steps, the head of the IRES inchworm (L1.1 region) is supported by the mobile L1 stalk. In the post-translocation CrPV IRES structure, the 5’-domain similarly protrudes between the subunits and interacts with the L1 stalk, as in the initiation state for this IRES. This underlines structural similarity for the TSV and CrPV IRES translocation mechanisms.0.9863063speciescleaner02023-07-14T09:24:20ZMESH:TSV0.5959895sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:06ZSO:IREScomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-17T09:02:38Z40Sstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T13:50:14Zsubunitprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:13:00Zinchworm0.5983167protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:39:11ZDUMMY:initiation0.7090151sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:06ZSO:IRESprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-17T08:34:20Zextendedprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:13:19Zextended inchworm0.9987333structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:29:28ZSO:front 'legs0.99978346structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:17:21ZSO:SL40.99977344structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:17:27ZSO:SL50.9996127structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:29:33ZSO:5’-domain0.9726136structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:29:41ZSO:front end0.996906complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-17T09:02:38ZGO:40Sstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-17T08:56:49Zhead0.9940593proteincleaner02023-07-18T14:35:31ZPR:uS70.99744236proteincleaner02023-07-18T14:35:38ZPR:uS110.9980939proteincleaner02023-07-18T14:35:44ZPR:eS250.65140986structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:41ZSO:PKI0.9880641structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:29:50ZSO:hind endprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T12:48:08Zbound in0.9993156sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:52ZSO:A siteevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:14:44ZStructures I to IV0.98847455structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:29:52ZSO:hind endsiteSO:cleaner02023-07-19T10:15:58ZA to the P site0.9903552structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:29:43ZSO:front end0.997926complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-17T09:02:38ZGO:40S0.756115structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:41ZSO:PKI0.9997739structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:17:21ZSO:SL40.4570263sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:06ZSO:IRES0.9970169evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:14ZDUMMY:structure0.99966156protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:50:20ZDUMMY:bent0.50760794sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:06ZSO:IRESprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:13:36Zbent inchwormevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:15:27ZStructures IV to V0.9929627structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:29:52ZSO:hind end0.9993958sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:16:03ZSO:P site0.9455021structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:30:19ZSO:front 'legs'0.9993908sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:16:32ZSO:initial binding sites0.75255346sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:06ZSO:IRESprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-17T08:34:20Zextendedprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:13:02Zinchwormstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-17T08:56:49Zhead0.7248495sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:06ZSO:IRESprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:13:02Zinchworm0.9987351structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T12:21:20ZSO:L1.1 region0.9996345protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:50:29ZDUMMY:mobile0.999406structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T12:21:13ZSO:L1 stalk0.982758protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T15:27:20ZDUMMY:post-translocation0.97469056speciescleaner02023-07-14T09:25:05ZMESH:CrPV0.37083906sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:06ZSO:IRES0.99950397evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:14ZDUMMY:structure0.99961686structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:30:27ZSO:5’-domain0.9983759structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T12:21:14ZSO:L1 stalk0.9272192protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:39:11ZDUMMY:initiation0.44835773sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:06ZSO:IRES0.99326384speciescleaner02023-07-14T09:24:20ZMESH:TSV0.9852445speciescleaner02023-07-14T09:25:05ZMESH:CrPV0.41263622sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:06ZSO:IRESDISCUSSparagraph51272Upon translocation, the GCU start codon is positioned in the A site (Structure V), ready for interaction with Ala-tRNAAla upon eEF2 departure. Recent studies have shown that in some cases a fraction of IGR IRES-driven translation results from an alternative reading frame, which is shifted by one nucleotide relative to the normal ORF. One of the mechanistic scenarios (discussed in) involves binding of the first aminoacyl-tRNA to the post-translocated IRES mRNA frame shifted by one nucleotide (predominantly a +1 frame shift). In our structures, the IRES presents to the decoding center a pre-translocated or fully translocated ORF, rather than a +1 (more translocated) ORF, suggesting that eEF2 does not induce a highly populated fraction of +1 shifted IRES mRNAs. It is likely that alternative frame setting occurs following eEF2 release and that this depends on transient displacement of the start codon in the decoding center, allowing binding of the corresponding amino acyl-tRNA to an off-frame codon. Further structural studies involving 80S•IRES•tRNA complexes are necessary to understand the mechanisms underlying alternative reading frame selection.0.99959457sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:52ZSO:A siteevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:14:22ZStructure VchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:44:46ZAla-tRNAAla0.9994394proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:48ZPR:eEF20.752359structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:26:12ZSO:IGR0.59038293sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:06ZSO:IRESstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T09:44:51ZORFchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:14:46Zaminoacyl-tRNA0.9929593protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:37:34ZDUMMY:post-translocated0.51287735sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:06ZSO:IRESchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:14:04ZmRNA0.9989116evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:25ZDUMMY:structures0.8084409sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:06ZSO:IRESsiteSO:cleaner02023-07-18T14:50:02Zdecoding center0.9994006protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:37:48ZDUMMY:pre-translocated0.99937904protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:37:55ZDUMMY:fully translocated0.49451753structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T09:44:49ZSO:ORFstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T09:44:51ZORF0.9986228proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:48ZPR:eEF20.6783173sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:06ZSO:IRESchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:13:31ZmRNAs0.9995797proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:48ZPR:eEF20.99145734sitecleaner02023-07-18T14:50:02ZSO:decoding centerchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:45:24Zamino acyl-tRNA0.9933733experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-17T08:36:43ZMESH:structural studies0.99899083complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-19T09:26:49ZGO:80S•IRES•tRNADISCUSSparagraph52439The presence of several translocation complexes in a single sample suggests that the structures represent equilibrium states of forward and reverse translocation of the IRES, which interconvert among each other. This is consistent with the observations that the intergenic IRESs are prone to reverse translocation. Specifically, biochemical toe-printing studies in the presence of eEF2•GTP identified IRES in a non-translocated position unless eEF1a•aa-tRNA is also present. These findings indicate that IRES translocation by eEF2 is futile: the IRES returns to the A site upon releasing eEF2•GDP unless an amino-acyl tRNA enters the A site and blocks IRES back-translocation. This contrasts with the post-translocated 2tRNA•mRNA complex, in which the classical P and E-site tRNAs are stabilized in the non-rotated ribosome after translocase release. Thus, the meta-stability of the post-translocation IRES is likely due to the absence of stabilizing structural features present in the 2tRNA•mRNA complex. In the initiation state, the IRES resembles a pre-translocation 2tRNA•mRNA complex reduced to the A/P-tRNA anticodon-stem loop and elbow in the A site and the P/E-tRNA elbow contacting the L1 stalk. Because the anticodon-stem loop of the A-tRNA is sufficient for translocation completion, we ascribe the meta-stability of the post-translocation IRES to the absence of the P/E-tRNA elements, either the ASL or the acceptor arm, or both. Furthermore, interactions of SL4 and SL5 with the 40S subunit likely contribute to stabilization of pre-translocation structures.protein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-14T09:55:43Zpresence of0.99862504evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:25ZDUMMY:structures0.9799646sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:06ZSO:IRES0.60521096sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:20:11ZSO:IRESs0.99808633experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-17T08:36:56ZMESH:biochemical toe-printing studies0.9920868protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T09:55:43ZDUMMY:presence of0.9993641complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:31:05ZGO:eEF2•GTP0.93958384sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:06ZSO:IRES0.999259protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:38:06ZDUMMY:non-translocated0.9734882complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T15:19:32ZGO:eEF1a•aa-tRNA0.9493763sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:06ZSO:IRES0.9997551proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:48ZPR:eEF20.9858512sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:06ZSO:IRES0.9994824sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:52ZSO:A site0.999156complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T15:19:50ZGO:eEF2•GDPchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:49:47Zamino-acyl tRNA0.9994684sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:53ZSO:A site0.96863115sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:07ZSO:IRES0.9993145protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:37:36ZDUMMY:post-translocated0.9995456complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:36:40ZGO:2tRNA•mRNA0.9990288sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:16:49ZSO:P and E-sitechemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:06ZtRNAs0.9992905protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:29:42ZDUMMY:non-rotated0.99886465complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:57ZGO:ribosomeprotein_typeMESH:cleaner02023-07-17T08:38:45Ztranslocase0.9989495protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T15:27:20ZDUMMY:post-translocation0.9693661sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:07ZSO:IRES0.9974084protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T09:55:35ZDUMMY:absence of0.99960643complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:36:40ZGO:2tRNA•mRNAprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-17T08:39:11Zinitiation0.98280346sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:07ZSO:IRES0.998801protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T15:24:43ZDUMMY:pre-translocation0.9994915complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:36:40ZGO:2tRNA•mRNAsiteSO:cleaner02023-07-19T13:09:38ZA/PchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:22ZtRNA0.9990821structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:30:33ZSO:anticodon-stem loop0.9661361structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:19:19ZSO:elbow0.9994403sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:53ZSO:A sitesiteSO:cleaner02023-07-19T13:10:12ZP/EchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:22ZtRNA0.7541472structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:19:19ZSO:elbow0.99874556structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T12:21:14ZSO:L1 stalk0.9993862structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:30:44ZSO:anticodon-stem loopsiteSO:cleaner02023-07-19T13:10:42ZAchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:22ZtRNA0.99891806protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T15:27:20ZDUMMY:post-translocation0.9638772sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:07ZSO:IRES0.99940073protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T09:55:35ZDUMMY:absence ofsiteSO:cleaner02023-07-19T13:11:10ZP/EchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:22ZtRNA0.99958044structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:34:56ZSO:ASL0.99979967structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:17:21ZSO:SL40.9997967structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:17:27ZSO:SL5complex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-17T09:02:38Z40Sstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T13:50:14Zsubunit0.9979062protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T15:24:43ZDUMMY:pre-translocation0.5761848evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:25ZDUMMY:structuresDISCUSStitle_254023Partitioned roles of 40S subunit rearrangementscomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-17T09:02:38Z40Sstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T13:50:14ZsubunitDISCUSSparagraph54071Our structures delineate the mechanistic functions for intersubunit rotation and head swivel in translocation. These functions are partitioned. Specifically, intersubunit rotation allows eEF2 entry into the A site, while the head swivel mediates PKI translocation. Various degrees of intersubunit rotation have been observed in cryo-EM studies of the 80S•IRES initiation complexes. This suggests that the subunits are capable of spontaneous rotation, as is the case for tRNA-bound pre-translocation complexes. The pre-translocation Structure I with eEF2 least advanced into the A site adopts a fully rotated conformation. Reverse intersubunit rotation from Structure I to V shifts the translocation tunnel (the tunnel between the A, P and E sites) toward eEF2, which is rigidly attached to the 60S subunit. This allows eEF2 to move into the A site. As such, reverse intersubunit rotation facilitates full docking of eEF2 in the A site.0.9964527evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:25ZDUMMY:structuresstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-17T08:56:49Zhead0.9995925proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:48ZPR:eEF20.9994972sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:53ZSO:A sitestructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-17T08:56:49Zhead0.99975497structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:41ZSO:PKI0.99249893experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-17T08:46:04ZMESH:cryo-EM studiescomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-17T08:46:29Z80S•IRESprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-17T08:39:11Zinitiation0.972903structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:31:00ZSO:subunits0.9995444protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T09:48:16ZDUMMY:tRNA-boundprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-14T15:24:43Zpre-translocation0.9458094protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T15:24:43ZDUMMY:pre-translocationevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T12:21:44ZStructure I0.9992386proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:48ZPR:eEF20.9994122sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:53ZSO:A site0.93447584protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:50:51ZDUMMY:fully rotated conformationevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T12:21:57ZStructure I to V0.9994348sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:16:56ZSO:translocation tunnel0.9945496sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:17:01ZSO:tunnel0.9994321sitecleaner02023-07-17T08:59:41ZSO:A, P and E sites0.99843365proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:48ZPR:eEF2complex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-18T13:49:59Z60Sstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T13:50:14Zsubunit0.999355proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:48ZPR:eEF20.9995361sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:53ZSO:A site0.9995158proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:48ZPR:eEF20.99955sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:53ZSO:A siteDISCUSSparagraph55009Because the histidine-diphthamide tip of eEF2 (H583, H694 and Diph699) attaches to the codon-anticodon-like helix of PKI, eEF2 appears to directly force PKI out of the A site. The head swivel allows gradual translocation of PKI to the P site, first with respect to the body and then to the head. The fully swiveled conformations of Structures II and III represent the mid-point of translocation, in which PKI relocates between the head A site and body P site. We note that such mid-states have not been observed for 2tRNA•mRNA, but their formation can explain the formation of subsequent pe/E hybrid and ap/P chimeric structures (Figure 1—figure supplement 1). Reverse swivel from Structure III to V brings the head to the non-swiveled position, restoring the A and P sites on the small subunit.siteSO:cleaner02023-07-19T10:10:33Zhistidine-diphthamide tip0.9997118proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:48ZPR:eEF20.99985754residue_name_numbercleaner02023-07-18T14:40:24ZDUMMY:H5830.9998585residue_name_numbercleaner02023-07-18T14:40:30ZDUMMY:H6940.99985206ptmcleaner02023-07-18T14:19:47ZMESH:Diph6990.99960977structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:13:14ZSO:codon-anticodon-like helix0.9998061structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:41ZSO:PKI0.99902654proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:48ZPR:eEF20.99981576structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:42ZSO:PKI0.99955726sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:53ZSO:A site0.99943393structure_elementcleaner02023-07-17T08:56:49ZSO:head0.99979264structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:42ZSO:PKI0.99957776sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:17:16ZSO:P site0.95581007structure_elementcleaner02023-07-18T14:09:35ZSO:body0.8795007structure_elementcleaner02023-07-17T08:56:49ZSO:head0.9994571protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:51:27ZDUMMY:fully swiveledevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:17:30ZStructures II and III0.99976593structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:42ZSO:PKI0.57131225structure_elementcleaner02023-07-17T08:56:49ZSO:head0.99952805sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:53ZSO:A site0.7615037structure_elementcleaner02023-07-18T14:09:35ZSO:body0.9995496sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:18:07ZSO:P site0.9987424complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:36:40ZGO:2tRNA•mRNAprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T09:51:08Zpe/E hybridprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T09:51:25Zap/P chimeric0.9976616evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:25ZDUMMY:structuresevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:17:54ZStructure III to V0.9472916structure_elementcleaner02023-07-17T08:56:49ZSO:head0.9992423protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:29:59ZDUMMY:non-swiveled0.999267sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:18:11ZSO:A and P sites0.90010196structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:39:03ZSO:small subunitDISCUSStitle_255809The functions of eEF2 in translocation0.99973947proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:48ZPR:eEF2DISCUSSparagraph55848To our knowledge, our work provides the first high-resolution view of the dynamics of a ribosomal translocase that is inferred from an ensemble of structures sampled under uniform conditions. The structures, therefore, offer a unique opportunity to address the role of the elongation factors during translocation. Translocases are efficient enzymes. While the ribosome itself has the capacity to translocate in the absence of the translocase, spontaneous translocation is slow. EF-G enhances the translocation rate by several orders of magnitude, aided by an additional 2- to 50-fold boost from GTP hydrolysis. Due to the lack of structures of translocation intermediates, the mechanistic role of eEF2/EF-G is not fully understood.protein_typeMESH:cleaner02023-07-19T09:21:34Zribosomal translocase0.996012evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:25ZDUMMY:structures0.9986753evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:25ZDUMMY:structures0.996802protein_typecleaner02023-07-19T09:21:42ZMESH:elongation factors0.99910754protein_typecleaner02023-07-19T09:21:47ZMESH:Translocases0.9989417complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:57ZGO:ribosome0.9994695protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T09:55:35ZDUMMY:absence of0.9979169protein_typecleaner02023-07-17T08:38:45ZMESH:translocase0.99960035proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:36:12ZPR:EF-GchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:12:25ZGTP0.843711evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:25ZDUMMY:structures0.99973124proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:48ZPR:eEF20.99966127proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:36:12ZPR:EF-GDISCUSSparagraph56580The 80S•IRES•eEF2 structures reported here suggest two main roles for eEF2 in translocation. As discussed above, the first role is to directly shift PKI out of the A site upon spontaneous reverse intersubunit rotation. In our structures, the tip of domain IV docks next to PKI, with diphthamide 699 fit into the minor groove of the codon-anticodon-like helix of PKI (Figure 7). This arrangement rationalizes inactivation of eEF2 by diphtheria toxin, which catalyzes ADP-ribosylation of the diphthamide (reviewed in). The enzyme ADP-ribosylates the NE2 atom of the imidazole ring, which in our structures interacts with the first two residues of the anticodon-like strand of PKI. The bulky ADP-ribosyl moiety at this position would disrupt the interaction, rendering eEF2 unable to bind to the A site and/or stalled on ribosomes in a non-productive conformation.0.99970853complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:44:49ZGO:80S•IRES•eEF20.99891007evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:25ZDUMMY:structures0.99980456proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:48ZPR:eEF20.9995877structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:42ZSO:PKI0.9995156sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:53ZSO:A site0.999129evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:25ZDUMMY:structuresstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T12:22:22ZIV0.581891structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:42ZSO:PKIptmMESH:cleaner02023-07-18T14:01:42Zdiphthamide 6990.99847627sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:02:15ZSO:minor groove0.99963886structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:13:14ZSO:codon-anticodon-like helix0.9945262structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:42ZSO:PKI0.9998211proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:48ZPR:eEF2protein_typeMESH:cleaner02023-07-14T15:23:19Zdiphtheria toxin0.99228305ptmcleaner02023-07-19T14:34:49ZMESH:ADP-ribosylation0.97661567ptmcleaner02023-07-19T09:46:56ZMESH:diphthamide0.9664541ptmcleaner02023-07-19T14:34:55ZMESH:ADP-ribosylates0.9991998evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:25ZDUMMY:structures0.9996568structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:31:20ZSO:anticodon-like strand0.9931681structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:42ZSO:PKIchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:12:44ZADP0.99978954proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:48ZPR:eEF20.9994521sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:53ZSO:A site0.9782526complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-19T09:51:36ZGO:ribosomesDISCUSSparagraph57446As eEF2 shifts PKI toward the P site in the course of reverse intersubunit rotation, the 60S-attached translocase migrates along the surface of the 40S subunit, guided by electrostatic interactions.

The Structures reveal hopping of the positive clusters over rRNA helices. For example, between Structures II and V, the K613/R617/R631 cluster of domain IV hops by ~19 Å (for Cα of R617) from the phosphate backbone of h33 (at nt 1261–1264) to that of the neighboring h34 (at nt 1442–1445). Thus, sliding of eEF2 involves reorganization of electrostatic, perhaps isoenergetic interactions, echoing those implied in extraordinarily fast ribosome inactivation rates by the small-protein ribotoxins and in fast protein association and diffusion along DNA.0.99974936proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:48ZPR:eEF20.93826824structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:42ZSO:PKI0.99952894sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:18:17ZSO:P site0.9881857protein_statecleaner02023-07-18T14:43:13ZDUMMY:60S-attached0.93992156protein_typecleaner02023-07-17T08:38:45ZMESH:translocasecomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-17T09:02:39Z40Sstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T13:50:14Zsubunitbond_interactionMESH:melaniev@ebi.ac.uk2023-07-28T14:17:52Zelectrostatic interactions0.99779767sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:18:21ZSO:Positively-charged patchesstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T12:22:50ZIIstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T12:22:57ZIII0.9998037residue_name_numbercleaner02023-07-18T14:43:17ZDUMMY:R3910.9997944residue_name_numbercleaner02023-07-18T14:43:26ZDUMMY:K3940.99980396residue_name_numbercleaner02023-07-18T14:43:33ZDUMMY:R4330.9998085residue_name_numbercleaner02023-07-18T14:43:40ZDUMMY:R5100.99766445structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:31:27ZSO:IV0.9998011residue_name_numbercleaner02023-07-18T14:36:41ZDUMMY:K6130.99982196residue_name_numbercleaner02023-07-18T14:36:54ZDUMMY:R6170.99981934residue_name_numbercleaner02023-07-18T14:43:54ZDUMMY:R6090.9998204residue_name_numbercleaner02023-07-18T14:37:02ZDUMMY:R6310.9997899residue_name_numbercleaner02023-07-18T14:44:04ZDUMMY:K651chemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:12:08ZrRNAcomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-17T09:02:39Z40Sstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T14:09:35Zbody0.99733657structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:31:32ZSO:h50.45621443structure_elementcleaner02023-07-17T08:56:49ZSO:head0.92518467structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:31:36ZSO:h180.9868046structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:31:39ZSO:h330.9810987structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:31:42ZSO:h340.9985941evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:25ZDUMMY:StructureschemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:12:10ZrRNA0.49309957structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:31:48ZSO:helicesevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:19:35ZStructures II and V0.999716residue_name_numbercleaner02023-07-18T14:36:41ZDUMMY:K6130.99978894residue_name_numbercleaner02023-07-18T14:36:54ZDUMMY:R6170.99978656residue_name_numbercleaner02023-07-18T14:37:02ZDUMMY:R6310.9058253structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:31:53ZSO:IV0.9997923residue_name_numbercleaner02023-07-18T14:36:54ZDUMMY:R617structure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T10:19:11Zh33residue_rangeDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:18:50Z1261–1264structure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T10:19:20Zh34residue_rangeDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:19:03Z1442–14450.99978274proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:48ZPR:eEF2bond_interactionMESH:melaniev@ebi.ac.uk2023-07-28T14:17:52Zelectrostatic, perhaps isoenergetic interactionscomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:32:57ZribosomeDISCUSSparagraph58396Comparison of our structures with the 80S•IRES initiation structure reveals the structural basis for the second key function of the translocase: 'unlocking' of intrasubunit rearrangements that are required for step-wise translocation of PKI on the small subunit. The unlocking model of the ribosome•2tRNA•mRNA pre-translocation complex has been proposed decades ago and functional requirement of the translocase in this process has been implicated. However, the structural and mechanistic definitions of the locked and unlocked states have remained unclear, ranging from the globally distinct ribosome conformations to unknown local rearrangements, e.g. those in the decoding center. FRET data indicate that translocation of 2tRNA•mRNA on the 70S ribosome requires a forward-and-reverse head swivel, which may be related to the unlocking phenomenon. Whereas intersubunit rotation of the pre-translocation complex occurs spontaneously, the head swivel is induced by the eEF2/EF-G translocase, consistent with requirement of eEF2 for unlocking. Structural studies revealed large head swivels in various 70S•tRNA•EF-G and 80S•tRNA•eEF2 complexes, but not in 'locked' complexes with the A site occupied by the tRNA in the absence of the translocase.0.89813346experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-17T08:38:23ZMESH:Comparison0.9969137evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:26ZDUMMY:structures0.9997051complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:40:46ZGO:80S•IRESprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-17T08:38:34Zinitiation0.9052483evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:14ZDUMMY:structure0.9980654protein_typecleaner02023-07-17T08:38:45ZMESH:translocase0.99966836structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:42ZSO:PKI0.98800325structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:39:03ZSO:small subunit0.99971324complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-19T09:51:43ZGO:ribosome•2tRNA•mRNAprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-14T15:24:41Zpre-translocation0.9982248protein_typecleaner02023-07-17T08:38:45ZMESH:translocase0.9996582protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:51:33ZDUMMY:locked0.9996425protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:51:36ZDUMMY:unlocked0.9709593complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:57ZGO:ribosomesiteSO:cleaner02023-07-18T14:50:02Zdecoding center0.9691931evidencecleaner02023-07-19T14:12:17ZDUMMY:FRET data0.9987307complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:36:40ZGO:2tRNA•mRNA0.9992502complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:56:37ZGO:70S ribosomestructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-17T08:56:49Zheadprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-14T15:24:43Zpre-translocationstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-17T08:56:49Zhead0.9152942proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:49ZPR:eEF20.8970521proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:36:13ZPR:EF-G0.99846315protein_typecleaner02023-07-17T08:38:45ZMESH:translocase0.9997421proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:49ZPR:eEF20.9994819experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-17T08:39:29ZMESH:Structural studiesstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-17T08:56:49Zhead0.99972045complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T15:26:12ZGO:70S•tRNA•EF-G0.99971277complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T10:02:55ZGO:80S•tRNA•eEF20.9996203protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:51:40ZDUMMY:lockedprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-14T09:56:03Zcomplexes with0.9992039sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:53ZSO:A sitechemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:23ZtRNA0.99949956protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T09:55:35ZDUMMY:absence of0.9987398protein_typecleaner02023-07-17T08:38:43ZMESH:translocaseDISCUSSparagraph59658Our structures suggest that eEF2 induces head swivel by 'unlocking' the head-body interactions (Figure 7). Binding of the ASL to the A site is known from structural studies of bacterial ribosomes to result in 'domain closure' of the small subunit, i.e. closer association of the head, shoulder and body domains. The domain closure 'locks' cognate tRNA in the A site via stacking on the head A site (C1274 in S. cerevisiae or C1054 in E. coli) and interactions with the body A-site nucleotides A1755 and A1756 (A1492 and A1493 in E. coli). This 'locked' state is identical to that observed for PKI in the 80S•IRES initiation structures in the absence of eEF2. Structure I demonstrates that at an early pre-translocation step, the histidine-diphthamide tip of eEF2 is wedged between A1755 and A1756 and PKI. This destabilization allows PKI to detach from the body A site upon spontaneous reverse 40S body rotation, while maintaining interactions with the head A site. Destabilization of the head-bound PKI at the body A site thus allows mobility of the head relative to the body. The histidine-diphthamide-induced disengagement of PKI from A1755 and A1756 therefore provides the structural definition for the 'unlocking' mode of eEF2 action.0.99587005evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:26ZDUMMY:structures0.99974424proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:49ZPR:eEF2structure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-17T08:56:49Zheadstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-17T08:56:49Zheadstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T14:09:35Zbody0.99927324structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:34:56ZSO:ASL0.99937326sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:53ZSO:A site0.9993887experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-17T08:39:34ZMESH:structural studies0.9994765taxonomy_domaincleaner02023-07-14T09:36:04ZDUMMY:bacterial0.9977017complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-19T09:51:46ZGO:ribosomes0.7095232protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:51:44ZDUMMY:domain closure0.9678366structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:39:03ZSO:small subunit0.9994672structure_elementcleaner02023-07-17T08:56:49ZSO:head0.999673structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:32:21ZSO:shoulder0.99939096structure_elementcleaner02023-07-18T14:09:35ZSO:bodychemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:23ZtRNA0.9994721sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:53ZSO:A sitebond_interactionMESH:melaniev@ebi.ac.uk2023-07-28T14:17:52Zstacking0.97418755structure_elementcleaner02023-07-17T08:56:49ZSO:head0.9974241sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:53ZSO:A siteresidue_name_numberDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T07:28:19ZC12740.9993815speciescleaner02023-07-14T10:07:58ZMESH:S. cerevisiaeresidue_name_numberDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T07:28:32ZC10540.99935037speciescleaner02023-07-14T09:31:43ZMESH:E. coli0.9744485structure_elementcleaner02023-07-18T14:09:35ZSO:body0.9972685sitecleaner02023-07-18T14:47:03ZSO:A-siteresidue_name_numberDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T07:27:01ZA1755residue_name_numberDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T07:27:14ZA1756residue_name_numberDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T08:09:17ZA1492residue_name_numberDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T08:09:31ZA14930.99930114speciescleaner02023-07-14T09:31:43ZMESH:E. coli0.9996037protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:51:51ZDUMMY:locked0.9996692structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:42ZSO:PKI0.99954915complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:40:46ZGO:80S•IRESprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-17T08:39:11ZinitiationevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-14T16:19:26Zstructures0.99952143protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T09:55:35ZDUMMY:absence of0.9996743proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:49ZPR:eEF2evidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:20:18ZStructure Iprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-14T15:24:43Zpre-translocationsiteSO:cleaner02023-07-19T10:10:33Zhistidine-diphthamide tip0.99966717proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:49ZPR:eEF2residue_name_numberDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T07:27:01ZA1755residue_name_numberDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T07:27:14ZA17560.9992706structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:42ZSO:PKI0.9996315structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:42ZSO:PKI0.9429087structure_elementcleaner02023-07-18T14:09:35ZSO:body0.99893606sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:53ZSO:A site0.98754764complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-17T09:02:39ZGO:40Sstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T14:09:35Zbody0.9702828structure_elementcleaner02023-07-17T08:56:49ZSO:head0.9870522sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:53ZSO:A site0.9995422protein_statecleaner02023-07-18T14:22:30ZDUMMY:head-bound0.99971634structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:42ZSO:PKIstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T14:09:35ZbodysiteSO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:28:53ZA site0.9808553structure_elementcleaner02023-07-17T08:56:49ZSO:head0.93796915structure_elementcleaner02023-07-18T14:09:35ZSO:body0.9992714ptmcleaner02023-07-18T14:20:20ZMESH:histidine-diphthamide0.9996124structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:42ZSO:PKIresidue_name_numberDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T07:27:01ZA1755residue_name_numberDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T07:27:14ZA17560.9997342proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:49ZPR:eEF2DISCUSSparagraph60900In summary, our structures are consistent with a model of eEF2-induced translocation in which both PKI and eEF2 passively migrate into the P and A site, respectively, during spontaneous 40S body rotation and head swivel, the latter being allowed by 'unlocking' of the A site by eEF2.

In all five structures, the GTPase domain is attached to the P stalk and the sarcin-ricin loop. In the fully-rotated pre-translocation-like Structure I, an additional interaction exists. Here, switch loop I interacts with helix 14 (415CAAA418) of the 18S rRNA. This stabilization renders the GTPase center to adopt a GTP-bound conformation, similar to those observed in other translational GTPases in the presence of GTP analogs and in the 80S•eEF2 complex bound with a transition-state mimic GDP•AlF4–. The switch loop contacts the base of A416 (invariable A344 in E. coli and A463 in H. sapiens). Mutations of residues flanking A344 in E. coli 16S rRNA modestly inhibit translation but do not specifically affect EF-G-mediated translocation. However, the effect of A344 mutation on translation was not addressed in that study, leaving the question open whether this residue is critical for eEF2/EF-G function. The interaction between h14 and switch loop I is not resolved in Structures II to V, in all of which the small subunit is partially rotated or non-rotated, so that helix 14 is placed at least 6 Å farther from eEF2 (Figure 5d). We conclude that unlike other conformations of the ribosome, the fully rotated 40S subunit of the pre-translocation ribosome provides an interaction surface, complementing the P stalk and SRL, for binding of the GTP-bound translocase. This structural basis rationalizes the observation of transient stabilization of the rotated 70S ribosome upon EF-G•GTP binding and prior to translocation.0.9998493proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:49ZPR:eEF2evidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:21:08ZStructure IevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:14:22ZStructure V0.9998442proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:50ZPR:eEF20.97487086protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T15:24:43ZDUMMY:pre-translocation0.8318909complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:57ZGO:ribosome0.82947904protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T15:27:18ZDUMMY:post-translocation0.7084811complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:57ZGO:ribosome0.9796959evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:26ZDUMMY:structures0.9992837structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:32:26ZSO:GTPase domain0.99973273structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T12:12:00ZSO:P stalk0.99968755structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:47:34ZSO:sarcin-ricin loop0.99955994protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:51:56ZDUMMY:fully-rotatedprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-14T15:24:43Zpre-translocationevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:21:20ZStructure I0.9984552structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T12:12:07ZSO:switch loop I0.9996377structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:32:37ZSO:helix 140.5314314structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:32:31ZSO:415CAAA418chemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:33:20Z18S rRNA0.9990754sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:22:44ZSO:GTPase center0.99953556protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:40:56ZDUMMY:GTP-bound0.95360684protein_typecleaner02023-07-17T08:43:29ZMESH:translational GTPases0.7912144protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T09:55:43ZDUMMY:presence ofchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:12:27ZGTP0.99969083complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T15:27:34ZGO:80S•eEF20.99943185protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:30:36ZDUMMY:bound with0.92701703complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-17T08:40:02ZGO:GDP•AlF4–0.99840194structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:32:42ZSO:switch loop0.9999075residue_name_numbercleaner02023-07-18T14:42:29ZDUMMY:A4160.99923444protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:52:14ZDUMMY:invariable0.99990714residue_name_numbercleaner02023-07-14T15:28:27ZDUMMY:A3440.9993867speciescleaner02023-07-14T09:31:43ZMESH:E. coli0.9999064residue_name_numbercleaner02023-07-14T15:28:34ZDUMMY:A4630.9994647speciescleaner02023-07-14T15:28:13ZMESH:H. sapiens0.9980787experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-17T08:39:43ZMESH:Mutations0.9999037residue_name_numbercleaner02023-07-14T15:28:26ZDUMMY:A3440.9993077speciescleaner02023-07-14T09:31:43ZMESH:E. colichemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:26:08Z16S rRNA0.8618088proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:36:13ZPR:EF-G0.9999007residue_name_numbercleaner02023-07-14T15:28:27ZDUMMY:A3440.9947273experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-17T08:43:03ZMESH:mutation0.9997851proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:50ZPR:eEF20.99825007proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:36:13ZPR:EF-Gstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T13:52:41Zh140.99813884structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T12:12:07ZSO:switch loop IevidenceDUMMY:melaniev@ebi.ac.uk2023-07-20T18:23:17ZStructures II to Vstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:39:03Zsmall subunitprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T12:52:34Zpartially rotated0.9993487protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:29:42ZDUMMY:non-rotated0.99959505structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:32:48ZSO:helix 140.99983156proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:50ZPR:eEF20.9993599complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:57ZGO:ribosome0.9996027protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:52:38ZDUMMY:fully rotatedcomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-17T09:02:39Z40Sstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T13:50:14Zsubunit0.9950142protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T15:24:43ZDUMMY:pre-translocation0.7444801complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:57ZGO:ribosome0.99955964sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:22:57ZSO:interaction surface0.999715structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T12:12:00ZSO:P stalk0.9997533structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:47:41ZSO:SRL0.99957496protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:40:55ZDUMMY:GTP-bound0.9986099protein_typecleaner02023-07-17T08:38:45ZMESH:translocase0.9995628protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:52:43ZDUMMY:rotated0.99885076complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:56:37ZGO:70S ribosome0.9991972complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T15:28:04ZGO:EF-G•GTPDISCUSSparagraph63283The least rotated conformation of the post-translocation Structure V suggests conformational changes that may trigger eEF2 release from the ribosome at the end of translocation. The most pronounced inter-domain rearrangement in eEF2 involves movement of domain III. In the rotated or mid-rotated Structures I through III, this domain remains rigidly associated with domain V and the N-terminal superdomain and does not undergo noticeable rearrangements. In Structure V, however, the tip of helix A of domain III is displaced toward domain I by ~5 Å relative to that in mid-rotated or fully rotated structures. This displacement is caused by the 8 Å movement of the 40S body protein uS12 upon reverse intersubunit rotation from Structure I to V (Figure 6d). We propose that the shift of domain III by uS12 initiates intra-domain rearrangements in eEF2, which unstack the β-platform of domain III from that of domain V. This would result in a conformation characteristic of free eEF2 and EF-G in which the β-platforms are nearly perpendicular. As we discuss below, Structure V captures a 'pre-unstacking' state due to stabilization of the interface between domains III and V by sordarin.0.9994625protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:52:46ZDUMMY:least rotated0.98654073protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T15:27:20ZDUMMY:post-translocationevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:14:23ZStructure V0.9998485proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:50ZPR:eEF20.8951123complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:57ZGO:ribosome0.99985516proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:50ZPR:eEF20.8255967structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:32:54ZSO:III0.99959224protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:52:52ZDUMMY:rotated0.9994974protein_statecleaner02023-07-18T13:57:54ZDUMMY:mid-rotatedevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:22:06ZStructures I through III0.97735584structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:32:58ZSO:V0.9997249structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T12:23:37ZSO:superdomainevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:14:23ZStructure V0.9994612structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:33:02ZSO:helix A0.9780176structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:33:06ZSO:III0.99887127structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:33:11ZSO:I0.9994686protein_statecleaner02023-07-18T13:57:54ZDUMMY:mid-rotated0.9995203protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:52:55ZDUMMY:fully rotated0.9939659evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:26ZDUMMY:structurescomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-17T09:02:39Z40Sstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T14:09:35Zbody0.9996605proteincleaner02023-07-18T14:37:08ZPR:uS12evidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:22:22ZStructure I to V0.9943276structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:33:17ZSO:III0.9997677proteincleaner02023-07-18T14:37:08ZPR:uS120.999859proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:50ZPR:eEF20.9613572structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T12:23:43ZSO:β-platform0.6897788structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:33:21ZSO:III0.9956507structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:33:26ZSO:V0.99965215protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:53:00ZDUMMY:free0.9998503proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:50ZPR:eEF20.99952966proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:36:13ZPR:EF-G0.9500897structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:33:30ZSO:β-platformsevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:14:23ZStructure V0.99900514protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:53:04ZDUMMY:pre-unstacking0.9990054sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:23:02ZSO:interface0.9948738structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:33:35ZSO:III0.99739707structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:33:39ZSO:VchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:37:55ZsordarinDISCUSStitle_264477Sordarin stabilizes GDP-bound eEF2 on the ribosomechemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:37:55ZSordarin0.9995802protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:40:25ZDUMMY:GDP-bound0.9996613proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:50ZPR:eEF20.9434002complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:57ZGO:ribosomeDISCUSSparagraph64528Sordarin is a potent antifungal antibiotic that inhibits translation.

Although our complex was assembled using eEF2•GTP, density maps clearly show GDP and Mg2+ in each structure (Figure 5g). Our structures therefore indicate that sordarin stalls eEF2 on the ribosome in the GDP-bound form, i.e. following GTP hydrolysis and phosphate release.chemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:37:55ZSordarin0.99928516experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-17T08:43:39ZMESH:biochemical experimentschemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:37:55Zsordarin0.99967504proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:50ZPR:eEF2chemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:12:27ZGTPchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:12:27ZGTP0.9996948complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:31:05ZGO:eEF2•GTP0.99957275evidencecleaner02023-07-19T13:53:35ZDUMMY:density mapschemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:37:41ZGDPchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:53:19ZMg2+0.9992229evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:14ZDUMMY:structure0.9995141evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:26ZDUMMY:structureschemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:37:55Zsordarin0.99974555proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:50ZPR:eEF20.88018614complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:57ZGO:ribosome0.99953574protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:40:26ZDUMMY:GDP-boundchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:12:27ZGTPDISCUSSparagraph65058The mechanism of stalling is suggested by comparison of pre-translocation and post-translocation structures in our ensemble. In all five structures, sordarin is bound between domains III and V of eEF2, stabilized by hydrophobic interactions identical to those in the isolated eEF2•sordarin complex (Figures 5g and h). In the nearly non-rotated post-translocation Structure V, the tip of domain III is shifted, however the interface between domains III and V remains unchanged, suggesting strong stabilization of this interface by sordarin. We note that Structure V is slightly more rotated than the 80S•2tRNA•mRNA complex in the absence of eEF2•sordarin, implying that sordarin interferes with the final stages of reverse rotation of the post-translocation ribosome. We propose that sordarin acts to prevent full reverse rotation and release of eEF2•GDP by stabilizing the interdomain interface and thus blocking uS12-induced disengagement of domain III from domain V.0.9816342protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T15:24:43ZDUMMY:pre-translocation0.9316675protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T15:27:20ZDUMMY:post-translocation0.9989109evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:26ZDUMMY:structures0.99879503evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:26ZDUMMY:structureschemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:37:55Zsordarin0.99920243protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:53:17ZDUMMY:boundstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T10:23:24ZIIIstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T10:23:32ZV0.9998517proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:50ZPR:eEF2bond_interactionMESH:melaniev@ebi.ac.uk2023-07-28T14:17:52Zhydrophobic interactions0.91515946protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:53:24ZDUMMY:isolated0.9997354complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T10:01:27ZGO:eEF2•sordarin0.9235951protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:53:33ZDUMMY:nearly non-rotated0.96038protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T15:27:20ZDUMMY:post-translocationevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:14:23ZStructure V0.8961695structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:33:43ZSO:III0.99937916sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:23:07ZSO:interface0.79765296structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:33:47ZSO:III0.99194676structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:33:51ZSO:V0.99939907sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:24:15ZSO:interfacechemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:37:55ZsordarinevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:14:23ZStructure V0.99972975complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:44:25ZGO:80S•2tRNA•mRNA0.99957705protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T09:55:35ZDUMMY:absence of0.9997294complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T10:01:27ZGO:eEF2•sordarinchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:37:55Zsordarin0.83613044protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T15:27:20ZDUMMY:post-translocation0.9993555complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:57ZGO:ribosomechemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:37:55Zsordarin0.9991319complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T15:19:52ZGO:eEF2•GDP0.99960303sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:24:19ZSO:interdomain interface0.7847563proteincleaner02023-07-18T14:37:08ZPR:uS12structure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T10:24:03ZIII0.99102354structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:33:57ZSO:VDISCUSStitle_266037Implications for tRNA and mRNA translocation during translationchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:23ZtRNAchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:14:04ZmRNADISCUSSparagraph66101Because translocation of tRNA must involve large-scale dynamics, this step has long been regarded as the most puzzling step of translation. Intersubunit rearrangements and tRNA hybrid states have been proposed to play key roles half a century ago. Despite an impressive body of biochemical, fluorescence and structural data accumulated since then, translocation remains the least understood step of elongation. The structural understanding of ribosome and tRNA dynamics has been greatly aided by a wealth of X-ray and cryo-EM structures (reviewed in). However, visualization of the eEF2/EF-G-induced translocation is confined to very early pre-EF-G-entry states and late (almost translocated or fully translocated) states, leaving most of the path from the A to the P site uncharacterized (Figure 1—figure supplement 1).chemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:23ZtRNAchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:23ZtRNAprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T13:54:31Zhybridstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T14:09:35ZbodyevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T13:54:55Zbiochemical, fluorescence and structural data0.99352056complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:57ZGO:ribosomechemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:23ZtRNAexperimental_methodMESH:cleaner02023-07-17T08:42:27ZX-rayexperimental_methodMESH:cleaner02023-07-17T08:27:36Zcryo-EM0.9832516evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:26ZDUMMY:structures0.9422131proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:50ZPR:eEF2proteinPR:cleaner02023-07-14T09:36:13ZEF-Gprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-17T08:42:06Zpre-EF-G-entry0.99901545protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:42:43ZDUMMY:almost translocated0.9991677protein_statecleaner02023-07-17T08:37:56ZDUMMY:fully translocatedsiteSO:cleaner02023-07-19T10:24:41ZA to the P siteDISCUSSparagraph66924Our study provides new insights into the structural understanding of tRNA translocation. First, we propose that tRNA and IRES translocations occur via the same general trajectory. This is evident from the fact that ribosome rearrangements in translocation are inherent to the ribosome and likely occur in similar ways in both cases. Furthermore, the step-wise coupling of ribosome dynamics with IRES translocation is overall consistent with that observed for 2tRNA•mRNA translocation in solution. For example, fluorescence and biochemical studies revealed that the early pre-translocation EF-G-bound ribosomes are fully rotated and translocation of the tRNA-mRNA complex occurs during reverse rotation of the small subunit, coupled with head swivel. The sequence of ribosome rearrangements during IRES translocation also agrees with that inferred from 70S•EF-G structures, including those in which the A-to-P-site translocating tRNA was not present. Specifically, an earlier translocation intermediate ribosome (TIpre) was proposed to adopt a rotated (7–9°) body and a partly rotated head (5–7.5°), in agreement with the conformation of our Structure I. The most swiveled head (18–21°) was observed in a mid-rotated ribosome (3–5°) of a later translocation intermediate TIpost, similar to the conformation of our Structure III. Overall, these correlations suggest that the intermediate locations of the elusive A-to-P-site translocating tRNA are similar to those of PKI in our structures.chemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:23ZtRNAchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:23ZtRNA0.41266745sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:07ZSO:IREScomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:32:57Zribosome0.9977036complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:57ZGO:ribosomecomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:32:57Zribosome0.51458466sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:07ZSO:IRES0.9976878complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:36:40ZGO:2tRNA•mRNA0.9995383experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-17T08:44:22ZMESH:fluorescence and biochemical studiesprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-14T15:24:43Zpre-translocation0.99949586protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T10:09:43ZDUMMY:EF-G-bound0.99894613complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-19T09:51:52ZGO:ribosomes0.9995048protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:53:38ZDUMMY:fully rotated0.9993949complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:36:32ZGO:tRNA-mRNA0.8160001structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:39:03ZSO:small subunit0.9767209structure_elementcleaner02023-07-17T08:56:49ZSO:headcomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:32:57Zribosome0.34823525sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:07ZSO:IRES0.9996809complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:39:50ZGO:70S•EF-G0.99909186evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:26ZDUMMY:structures0.9993857sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:25:07ZSO:A-to-P-sitechemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:23ZtRNA0.99565923complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:57ZGO:ribosome0.99942833protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:53:47ZDUMMY:rotated0.99641526structure_elementcleaner02023-07-18T14:09:35ZSO:bodyprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T12:54:04Zpartly rotated0.9986665structure_elementcleaner02023-07-17T08:56:49ZSO:headevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T12:24:12ZStructure I0.98800033protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:54:12ZDUMMY:most swiveled0.99805826structure_elementcleaner02023-07-17T08:56:49ZSO:head0.9991572protein_statecleaner02023-07-18T13:57:54ZDUMMY:mid-rotated0.9985965complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:57ZGO:ribosomeevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:24:58ZStructure III0.99937236sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:25:10ZSO:A-to-P-sitechemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:23ZtRNA0.99927706structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:42ZSO:PKI0.9983277evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:26ZDUMMY:structuresDISCUSSparagraph68429Second, the structures clarify the structural basis of the often-used but structurally undefined terms 'locking' and 'unlocking' with respect to the pre-translocation complex (Figure 6f). We deem the pre-translocation complex locked, because the A-site bound ASL-mRNA is stabilized by interactions with the decoding center. These interactions are maintained for the classical- and hybrid-state tRNAs in the spontaneously sampled non-rotated and rotated ribosomes, respectively. Unlocking involves separation of the codon-anticodon helix from the decoding center residues by the protruding tip of eEF2/EF-G (Figure 7), occurring in the fully rotated ribosome at an early pre-translocation step. This unlatches the head, allowing creation of hitherto elusive intermediate tRNA positions during spontaneous reverse body rotation.0.99842167evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:26ZDUMMY:structuresprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-14T15:24:43Zpre-translocationprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-14T15:24:43Zpre-translocation0.9958444protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:54:17ZDUMMY:lockedprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-14T15:32:21ZA-site boundchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:14:04ZmRNA0.9978288sitecleaner02023-07-18T14:50:02ZSO:decoding centerprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T12:54:51Zclassicalprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T12:55:07ZhybridchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:06ZtRNAs0.9993889protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:29:42ZDUMMY:non-rotated0.9976907protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:55:14ZDUMMY:rotated0.99939656complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-19T09:53:39ZGO:ribosomes0.9990625structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:26:26ZSO:codon-anticodon helix0.98965186sitecleaner02023-07-18T14:50:02ZSO:decoding center0.9982627proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:30:50ZPR:eEF20.9979115proteincleaner02023-07-14T09:36:13ZPR:EF-G0.9995489protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:55:18ZDUMMY:fully rotated0.99942243complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:57ZGO:ribosomeprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-14T15:24:43Zpre-translocation0.9252438structure_elementcleaner02023-07-17T08:56:49ZSO:headchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:24ZtRNAstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T14:09:35ZbodyDISCUSSparagraph69256Third, our findings uncover a new role of the head swivel. Previous studies showed that this movement widens the constriction ('gate') between the P and E sites, thus allowing the P-tRNA passage to the E site. In addition to the 'gate-opening' role, we now show that the head swivel brings the head A site to the body P site, allowing a step-wise conveying of the codon-anticodon helix between the A and P sites.structure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-17T08:56:49Zhead0.9981598sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:25:24ZSO:constriction0.9984458sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:25:34ZSO:gate0.9995731sitecleaner02023-07-17T08:57:44ZSO:P and E sitessiteSO:cleaner02023-07-19T13:56:02ZPchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:24ZtRNA0.99951637sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:35:33ZSO:E site0.9943797sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:25:36ZSO:gatestructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-17T08:56:49Zhead0.99003184structure_elementcleaner02023-07-17T08:56:49ZSO:head0.99938923sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:28:53ZSO:A site0.99493647structure_elementcleaner02023-07-18T14:09:35ZSO:body0.8478176sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:25:47ZSO:P sitestructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T14:26:26Zcodon-anticodon helix0.99881953sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:27:12ZSO:A and P sitesDISCUSSparagraph69669Finally, the similar populations of particles (within a 2X range) in our 80S•IRES•eEF2 reconstructions (Figure 1—figure supplement 2) suggest that the intermediate translocation states sample several energetically similar and interconverting conformations. This is consistent with the idea of a rather flat energy landscape of translocation, suggested by recent work that measured mechanical work produced by the ribosome during translocation. Our findings implicate, however, that the energy landscape is not completely flat and contains local minima for transient positions of the codon-anticodon helix between the A and P sites. The shift of the PKI with respect to the body occurs during forward head swivel in two major sub-steps of ~4 Å each (initiation complex to I, and I to II), after which PKI undergoes small shifts to settle in the body P site in Structures III, IV and V (Figure 2—source data 1). Movement of PKI relative to the head occurs during the subsequent reverse swivel in three 3–7 Å sub-steps (II to III to IV to V). It is possible that additional meta-stable but less populated states exist between the conformations we observe. We note that four of our near-atomic resolution maps comprised ~30,000 particles each, the minimum number required for a near-atomic-resolution reconstruction of the ribosome. A larger data set will therefore be necessary to reveal additional sub-states.0.9912579experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-19T14:09:58ZMESH:particles0.99972755complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:44:49ZGO:80S•IRES•eEF20.99929357evidencecleaner02023-07-19T14:12:26ZDUMMY:reconstructions0.99936384complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:57ZGO:ribosome0.9955378structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:26:26ZSO:codon-anticodon helix0.99943036sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:27:17ZSO:A and P sites0.9037336structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:42ZSO:PKIstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T14:09:35Zbodystructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-17T08:56:49Zheadcomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-19T12:25:15Zinitiation complexevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T12:24:46ZIevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T12:24:55ZIevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T12:24:59ZII0.9491358structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:42ZSO:PKIstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T14:09:35Zbody0.99934816sitecleaner02023-07-19T10:27:21ZSO:P siteevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:26:03ZStructures III, IV and V0.96706176structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:27:42ZSO:PKI0.9563458structure_elementcleaner02023-07-17T08:56:49ZSO:headevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:26:48ZII to III to IV to V0.99950814evidencecleaner02023-07-19T14:12:30ZDUMMY:maps0.9990263experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-19T14:09:58ZMESH:particlesevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:27:02Znear-atomic-resolution reconstruction0.999496complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:57ZGO:ribosomeDISCUSStitle_271093Concluding remarksDISCUSStitle_371112Translation of viral mRNA0.9714399taxonomy_domaincleaner02023-07-14T09:20:22ZDUMMY:viralchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:14:04ZmRNADISCUSSparagraph71138Our work sheds light on the dynamic mechanism of cap-independent translation by IGR IRESs, tightly coupled with the universally conserved dynamic properties of the ribosome. The cryo-EM structures demonstrate that the TSV IRES structurally and dynamically represents a chimera of the 2tRNA•mRNA translocating complex (A/P-tRNA • P/E-tRNA • mRNA). Like in the 2tRNA•mRNA translocating complex in which the two tRNAs move independently of each other, the PKI domain moves relative to the 5´-domain, causing the IRES to undergo an inchworm-walk translocation. A large structural difference between the IRES and the 2tRNA•mRNA complex exists, however, in that the IRES lacks three out of six tRNA-like domains involved in tRNA translocation. This difference likely accounts for the inefficient translocation of the IRES, which is difficult to stabilize in the post-translocation state and therefore is prone to reverse translocation. Although structurally handicapped, the TSV IRES manages to translocate by employing ribosome dynamics that are remarkably similar to that in 2tRNA•mRNA translocation. The uniformity of ribosome dynamics underscores the idea that translocation is an inherent and structurally-optimized property of the ribosome, supported also by translocation activity in the absence of the elongation factor. This property is rendered by the relative mobility of the three major building blocks, the 60S subunit and the 40S head and body, assisted by ligand-interacting extensions including the L1 stalk and the P stalk. Intergenic IRESs, in turn, represent a striking example of convergent molecular evolution. Viral mRNAs have evolved to adopt an atypical structure to employ the inherent ribosome dynamics, to be able to hijack the host translational machinery in a simple fashion.0.6832388structure_elementcleaner02023-07-14T09:26:12ZSO:IGR0.98576397sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:20:11ZSO:IRESs0.82903767protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:55:23ZDUMMY:universally conserved0.99871266complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:57ZGO:ribosome0.99941874experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-17T08:27:36ZMESH:cryo-EM0.9982248evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:26ZDUMMY:structures0.94002247speciescleaner02023-07-14T09:24:20ZMESH:TSV0.99803907sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:07ZSO:IRES0.9996104complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:36:40ZGO:2tRNA•mRNAcomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-19T09:54:13ZA/P-tRNA • P/E-tRNA • mRNA0.9996125complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:36:40ZGO:2tRNA•mRNAchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:06ZtRNAsstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-14T09:27:43ZPKI0.9996648structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T12:25:40ZSO:5´-domain0.99878865sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:07ZSO:IRESprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-19T10:13:02Zinchworm0.99404573sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:07ZSO:IRES0.9996314complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:36:40ZGO:2tRNA•mRNA0.9996086sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:07ZSO:IRES0.9981736protein_statecleaner02023-07-19T12:55:39ZDUMMY:lacksstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-19T13:57:07ZtRNA-like domainschemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:15:24ZtRNA0.9989812sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:07ZSO:IRESprotein_stateDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-14T15:27:20Zpost-translocation0.9350405speciescleaner02023-07-14T09:24:20ZMESH:TSV0.9974492sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:21:07ZSO:IRES0.8572012complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:57ZGO:ribosome0.9994712complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:36:40ZGO:2tRNA•mRNA0.63648415complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:57ZGO:ribosome0.9990694complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:57ZGO:ribosome0.9995005protein_statecleaner02023-07-14T09:55:35ZDUMMY:absence of0.99564236protein_typecleaner02023-07-19T09:17:41ZMESH:elongation factorcomplex_assemblyGO:cleaner02023-07-18T13:49:59Z60Sstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T13:50:14Zsubunit0.99936193complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-17T09:02:39ZGO:40Sstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-17T08:56:49Zheadstructure_elementSO:cleaner02023-07-18T14:09:35Zbody0.9994944structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T14:34:09ZSO:ligand-interacting extensions0.99963784structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T12:21:14ZSO:L1 stalk0.9996475structure_elementcleaner02023-07-19T12:12:00ZSO:P stalk0.9801083sitecleaner02023-07-14T09:20:11ZSO:IRESs0.9983944taxonomy_domaincleaner02023-07-14T09:20:22ZDUMMY:ViralchemicalCHEBI:cleaner02023-07-19T13:13:31ZmRNAsevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-14T16:19:14Zstructure0.9749979complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:57ZGO:ribosomeDISCUSStitle_372950Ensemble cryo-EM0.99953604experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-17T08:27:36ZMESH:cryo-EMDISCUSSparagraph72967Our current understanding of macromolecular machines, such as the ribosome, is often limited by a gap between biophysical/biochemical studies and structural studies. For example, Förster resonance energy transfer can provide insight into the macromolecular dynamics of an assembly at the single-molecule level but is limited to specifically labeled locations within the assembly. High-resolution crystal structures, on the other hand, can provide static images of an assembly, and the structural dynamics can only be inferred by comparing structures that are usually obtained in different experiments and under different, often non-native, conditions. Cryo-EM offers the possibility of obtaining integrated information of both structure and dynamics as demonstrated in lower-resolution studies of bacterial ribosome complexes. Recent technical advances, including direct electron detectors and image processing software, have significantly improved the resolution at which such studies can be performed. The increased resolution, need for larger datasets and more sophisticated algorithms have also led to a massive increase in the computational power required to process the data. The available computing infrastructure and computational efficiency have therefore become deciding factors in how many different structural states can be resolved. This is presumably one of the reasons why most recent studies of ribosome complexes have focused on a single high-resolution structure despite the non-uniform local resolution of the maps that likely reflects structural heterogeneity. The computational efficiency of FREALIGN has allowed us to classify a relatively large dataset (1.1 million particles) into 15 classes (Figure 1—figure supplement 2) and obtain eight near-atomic-resolution structures from it. The classification, which followed an initial alignment of all particles to a single reference, required about 130,000 CPU hours or about five to six full days on a 1000-CPU cluster. While it would clearly be impractical to perform this type of analysis on a desktop computer, one may extrapolate using Moore’s law that such practice will become routine in less than ten years. Therefore, cryo-EM has the potential to become a standard tool for uncovering detailed dynamic pathways of complex macromolecular machines. A particularly exciting application will be to infer the high-resolution temporal trajectory of a pathway from an ensemble of equilibrium states in a single sample, as described in our work, together with an analysis of samples quenched at different time points of the reaction.0.9990188complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:57ZGO:ribosomeexperimental_methodMESH:cleaner02023-07-17T08:45:06Zbiophysical/biochemical studies0.9179076experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-17T08:39:36ZMESH:structural studies0.9986306experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-14T09:41:01ZMESH:Förster resonance energy transfer0.9995963evidencecleaner02023-07-17T08:45:16ZDUMMY:crystal structures0.998577evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:26ZDUMMY:structures0.99955434experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-17T08:27:36ZMESH:Cryo-EMevidenceDUMMY:cleaner02023-07-14T16:19:14Zstructure0.99946684taxonomy_domaincleaner02023-07-14T09:36:04ZDUMMY:bacterial0.98313105complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:57ZGO:ribosome0.96320486complex_assemblycleaner02023-07-14T09:32:57ZGO:ribosome0.99937564evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:14ZDUMMY:structure0.9996226evidencecleaner02023-07-19T14:12:35ZDUMMY:maps0.99935824experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-17T08:45:43ZMESH:FREALIGN0.99879444experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-19T14:09:58ZMESH:particles0.99942577evidencecleaner02023-07-14T16:19:26ZDUMMY:structures0.9948547experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-19T14:09:58ZMESH:particles0.99955434experimental_methodcleaner02023-07-17T08:27:36ZMESH:cryo-EMMETHODStitle_175576Materials and methodsMETHODStitle_275598S. cerevisiae 80S ribosome preparationMETHODSparagraph7563780S ribosomes used in this study were prepared from Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain W303 as described previously.

Yeast cell pellet (~5 g) was obtained by centrifugation and re-suspended in 20 ml of the lysis buffer (50 mM potassium phosphate pH 7.6, 1 M KCl, 1% Tween 20, 10% Glycerol, 10 mM imidazole, 0.2 mM PMSF, 1 mM DTT, and 1 tablet of Roche miniComplete protease inhibitor). The suspension was lysed with microfluidizer at 25,000 psi at 4°C, and then clarified by centrifugation twice at 30,000 × g for 20 min. The supernatant was subjected to Ni-NTA affinity chromatography using the AKTAexplorer 100 system (GE Healthcare). After lysate application onto the column, the column was washed with a five-column volume of wash buffer (50 mM potassium phosphate pH 7.6, 1 M KCl, 1% Tween 20, 10% Glycerol, 20 mM imidazole, 0.2 mM PMSF and 1 mM DTT). A gradient elution method was used to reach the final imidazole concentration of 250 mM. Eluted fractions were buffer-exchanged into buffer A (30 mM HEPES·KOH (pH 7.5), 5% glycerol, 65 mM ammonium chloride, 7 mM β–mercaptoethanol and 1 tablet of miniComplete protease inhibitor) for HiTrap SP Sepharose High Performance cation-exchange chromatography (GE Healthcare). A gradient elution method was used to reach the final salt concentration of 1 M KCl in buffer A over the 20-column volume (100 ml). The peak fraction was concentrated and buffer-exchanged into buffer A, which is also the buffer used for the subsequent size-exclusion chromatography employing Superdex 200 (GE Healthcare). Fractions corresponding to the eEF2 peak were concentrated and stored in aliquots at -20°C.METHODStitle_27914580S•TSV IRES•eEF2•GTP•sordarin complex preparationMETHODSparagraph79204The IRES-eEF2-ribosome complex was assembled in two steps. First, refolded TSV IRES RNA (8 μM - all concentrations are specified for the final complex) was incubated with the yeast 40S small subunit (0.8 μM) for 15 min at 30°C, in the buffer containing 45 mM HEPES·KOH (pH 7.5), 10 mM MgCl2, 100 mM KCl, 2.5 mM spermine and 2 mM β–mercaptoethanol. The 60S subunit (0.8 μM) was then added and incubated for 15 min at 30°C. Subsequently, eEF2 (5 μM), sordarin (800 μM) and GTP (1 mM) were added and incubated for 15 min at 30°C. The solution was then incubated on ice for 10 min and flash-frozen in liquid nitrogen.METHODStitle_279852Cryo-EM specimen preparationMETHODSparagraph79881Quantifoil Cu 200 mesh grids (SPI Supplies, West Chester, PA) were coated with a thin layer of carbon and glow discharged for 45 s at 25 mA. 3 µL of sample with a concentration of ~0.1 µM was applied to the grid, incubated for 30 s and plunged into liquid ethane using an FEI Vitrobot Mark 2 (FEI Company, Hillsboro, OR) after blotting for 3 s at 4°C and ~85% relative humidity.METHODStitle_280269Electron microscopyMETHODSparagraph80289Cryo-EM data were collected in movie mode on an FEI Krios microscope (FEI Company, Hillsboro, OR) operating at 300 kV and equipped with a K2 Summit direct detector (Gatan Inc., Pleasanton, CA) operating in super-resolution mode with pixel size of 0.82 Å per super-resolution pixel. Each movie consisted of 50 frames collected over 18.8 s with an exposure per frame of 1.4 e-/Å2 as shown by Digital Micrograph (Gatan Inc., Pleasanton, CA), giving a total exposure of 70 e-/Å2. The defocus ranged between ~0.7 to ~2.5 µm underfocus.METHODStitle_280828Image processingMETHODSparagraph80845The gain-corrected super-resolution movie frames were corrected for anisotropic magnification using bilinear interpolation. The frames were downsampled by Fourier cropping to a pixel size of 1.64 Å. The downsampled frames were then motion-corrected and exposure filtered using Unblur. The image defocus was determined using CTFFIND4 on non-exposure-filtered images and images with excessive motion, low contrast, ice contamination or poor power spectra were removed based on visual inspection using TIGRIS (http://tigris.sourceforge.net/). 50 particles were picked manually using TIGRIS, summed and rotationally averaged to serve as a reference for correlation-based particle picking in IMAGIC. 1,105,737 two-dimensional images of ribosomes (termed 'particles') were picked automatically, extracted into 256 x 256 boxes and converted to MRC/CCP4 format with a corresponding list of micrograph numbers and defocus values for input to FREALIGN v9.METHODSparagraph81794The summary of procedures resulting in 3D cryo-EM maps is presented on Figure 1—figure supplement 2. FREALIGN v9 was used for refinement, classification and 3D reconstruction of all ribosome structures. Initial particle alignments were obtained by performing an angular grid search (FREALIGN mode 3) with a density map calculated from the atomic model of the non-rotated 80S ribosome bound with 2 tRNAs (PDB: 3J78). For this search, the resolution was limited to 20 Å and the resolution of the resulting reconstruction was 3.6 Å, as determined by the FSC = 0.143 threshold criterion. Four additional rounds of mode 3 with the resolution limited to 7 Å improved the resolution of the reconstruction to 3.5 Å.METHODSparagraph82516Starting with cycle 6, particles were classified into six classes using 21 rounds of mode 1 refinement. Inspection of the six classes suggested that several represented mixed conformations. The alignment parameters of the class containing the largest number of particles (25%) were therefore used to initialize classification into 15 classes. For this classification, particle images were downsampled by Fourier cropping to a pixel size of 3.28 Å to accelerate processing. 99 rounds of refinement and classification were performed using mode 1 with a resolution limit of 7 Å. To help separate different conformations affecting small subunit, IRES and eEF2, we used a 3D mask that included density belonging to these parts of the structure. This mask was applied in every cycle to the 3D reference structures prior to refinement and classification in 42 additional cycles. The mask was then changed to include only the head of the small subunit, IRES and eEF2, and a final 18 cycles of refinement and classification were run.METHODSparagraph83547We selected six out of the 15 final classes based on clear density present for IRES and eEF2 and continued all further processing with this subset of the data (312,698 particles). The six classes were grouped into three groups based on the rotational state of the small subunit, and each group was further refined and classified using between six and 36 cycles of mode 1 and particles downsampled to 1.64 Å pixel size. For this classification, FREALIGN’s focused mask feature was used to select either the region of IRES PKI (for classes showing intermediate rotation of the small subunit) or a region containing both IRES PKI and eEF2 domain 4 (for classes showing no rotation of the small subunit). This refinement and sub-classification produced eight new classes with more distinct features in the regions selected by the focused masks. These eight classes were used as starting references for a final 33 cycles of refinement and classification using mode 1 and focused mask with the radius of 45 Å covering the vicinity of the ribosomal A site. The first 26 cycles were performed using particles downsampled to 3.28 Å pixel size, followed by two cycles at a pixel size of 1.64 Å, and five cycles at a pixel size of 0.82 Å. The resolution limit for the final cycles was set at 5 Å. The resulting eight reconstructions were used for further analyses, model building and structural refinements, as described below. In parallel, to enhance resolution of the IRES 5´ domain, we performed classification and refinement of the eight classes using a mask with the radius of 50 Å covering the vicinity of the E site and L1 stalk; these maps were used for model building and confirmation of the IRES 5´ domain structure, but not for structure refinements.METHODSparagraph85323Among the resulting eight reconstructions, four reconstructions contained well defined PKI and eEF2 densities (I, II, IV and V) (Figure 1—figure supplement 1). PKI was poorly resolved in reconstruction III. Reconstruction VI represents the previously reported 80S•TSV IRES initiation complex in the least rotated conformation. Reconstructions VII and VIII correspond to ribosomes adopting intermediate rotational states, similar to that of Structure III, with weak density in the region of the 5’ domain of the IRES and no density for the PKI domain. To resolve heterogeneity of PKI in reconstruction III, we performed additional sub-classification of all eight classes into two or three classes each. This sub-classification did not result into different structures for the four classes of interest (I, II, IV and V), suggesting a high degree of homogeneity in the masked regions of PKI and eEF2 domain IV. Sub-classification of reconstruction III helped improve the PKI density, resulting in a 4.2 Å reconstruction. All maps were subsequently B-factor-filtered by bfactor.exe, using the B-factors of -50 to -120 Å2, as suggested by bfactor.exe for individual maps, and used for real-space structure refinements. FSC curves (Figure 1—figure supplement 3) were calculated by FREALIGN for even and odd particles half-sets. Blocres was used to calculate the local resolution of unfiltered and unmasked volumes using a box size 60 pixel, step size of 3 pixels and FSC resolution criterion (threshold 0.143). The output volumes were then colored according to the local resolution of the final reconstructions (Figure 1—figure supplement 3) using the Surface Color tool of Chimera METHODStitle_287014Model building and refinementMETHODSparagraph87044The starting structural models were assembled using the high-resolution crystal structure of S. cerevisiae 80S ribosome, the cryo-EM structure of the 80S•TSV IRES complex and the crystal structure of the isolated eEF2•sordarin complex. The structure of the diphthamide residue of eEF2 (699) was adopted from PDB: 1ZM4. Initial domain fitting into the cryo-EM maps was performed using Chimera, followed by manual modeling of local regions into the density using Pymol and Coot. Parts of several ribosomal proteins were modeled using I-TASSER and Phyre2 . The structural models were refined by real-space simulated-annealing refinement using atomic electron scattering factors, employing RSRef as described. Secondary-structure restrains for ribosomal proteins and base-pairing restraints for RNA molecules were employed, as described. The refined structural models closely agree with the corresponding maps, as shown by low real-space R-factors of ~0.2 to 0.27, and they have good stereochemical parameters, characterized by low deviation from ideal bond lengths and angles (Figure 1—source data 1). The maps revealed regions, which are differently resolved in Structures I to V. The most prominent difference is in the platform subdomain of the 40S subunit, which is well resolved in Structures I, IV and V but poorly resolved in Structures II and III. The following components of the 40S platform in Structures II and III lacked resolution: proteins eS1, uS11, eS26 and eL41, 18S rRNA nt 892–900, 900–918 and the 3´ end beyond nt 1792. These and other regions of low density were modeled as protein or RNA backbone.METHODSparagraph88677For structural comparisons, the distances and angles were calculated in Pymol and Chimera, respectively. To calculate an angle of the 40S subunit rotation between two 80S structures, the 25S rRNAs were aligned using Pymol, and the angle between 18S rRNAs was measured in Chimera. To calculate an angle of the 40S-head rotation (swivel) between two 80S structures, the 18S rRNAs of the bulk of the 40S body (18S nucleotides excluding nt 1150–1620) were aligned using Pymol, and the angle between the 18S rRNA residues 1150–1620 was measured in Chimera. Figures were prepared in Pymol and Chimera.ACK_FUNDtitle_189277Funding InformationACK_FUNDparagraph89297This paper was supported by the following grants:ACK_FUNDparagraph89347 to Nikolaus

Your article has been favorably evaluated by John Kuriyan (Senior editor) and three reviewers, one of whom, Sriram Subramaniam, is a member of our Board of Reviewing Editors.REVIEW_INFOparagraph102042The reviewers have discussed the reviews with one another and the Reviewing Editor has drafted this decision to help you prepare a revised submission.REVIEW_INFOparagraph102193Summary:REVIEW_INFOparagraph102202Type IV internal ribosome entry sites (IRESs) initiate translation without using any of the canonical eukaryotic translation initiation factors. Thus, they represent the most streamlined mode of eukaryotic translation initiation discovered. They have been studied biochemically and structurally. The current prevailing model is that these IRESs fold into a compact 2-domain structure that bind to the 40S subunit through multiple contacts. Critical interactions occur between two IRES RNA stem-loops and the head of the 40S subunit. This positions one of the IRES domains into the decoding groove. This domain (a pseudoknot, PKI) mimics the tRNA-mRNA anticodon-codon interaction, apparently first docking in the A site. The 60S subunit then joins in a GTP hydrolysis-independent step. This complex is then recognized by elongation factor 2, which catalyzes translocation of the PKI domain into the P site, allowing tRNA delivery to the A-site. Another round of translocation brings this tRNA to the P site. The mechanisms of these IRESs suggests that they can be powerful tools for understand translation in general (a feature the authors of this manuscript exploit).REVIEW_INFOparagraph103370A rich set of biochemical and functional data have established that different parts of the IRES affect different steps, have shown similarities and differences between different type IV IRESs, and have established some of the key differences between the canonical and IRES-driven initiation mechanisms. In addition, various structures of the IRES alone or bound to the ribosome have been published, using both crystallography and cryo-EM. Until recently, the cryo-EM structures were of low-or mid-resolution. However, when combined with the higher resolution data from crystal structures and the many functional and biochemical studies, the models that resulted have been very informative and have allowed many predictions to be made.REVIEW_INFOparagraph104105In this manuscript, the authors attack the question of IRES translocation. They present a series of cryo-EM structures of a Taura Syndrome Virus (TSV) IRES bound to 80S and eEF2, using the antibiotic sordarin. The authors interpret the set of structures as showing the trajectory of the mRNA-tRNA-mimicking PKI moving from the A to the P site. Overall, this is an impressive piece of work. It appears technically well done, the description is rich and detailed, and the conclusions are well supported and discussed. As such, it represents an important addition to the IRES field. In many ways, the mechanism that is presented is not surprising; an "inchworm"- like mechanism has been predicted in the literature (although never referred to as such!). However, to see it and to have detailed structures along the trajectory is very important. I will say that as the paper is written, it probably speaks as much to the mechanism of eEF2 and translocation in general as it does to IRES-specific function.REVIEW_INFOparagraph105107Essential revisions:REVIEW_INFOparagraph1051281) There are few recent discoveries regarding IRES function that are not mentioned in the manuscript.

Our structures do not directly suggest how alternate reading frame selection could occur because our data did not reveal a frame-shifted conformation of the IRES. The observation of IRES dynamics in our study indirectly suggests that an alternate (frame-shifted) codon may be transiently placed in the A site following eEF2 release, and this sampling may allow binding of an aminoacyl-tRNA to the off-frame codon.REVIEW_INFOparagraph108940Recent work implicates the VLR loop/loop 3 in PKI as having a role in eEF2 function: Ruehle et al., (2015) eLife), and it has been explored in manuscripts from the Jan lab. This is not mentioned or discussed. Can the authors comment on what this loop is doing and contacting and does it explain this previous work? Also, the Ruehle et al. presents biochemical data in favor of their spontaneous forward and reverse translocation that the authors allude to.REVIEW_INFOparagraph109397We have revised our Results section to address this important comment. Loop 3 connects the ASL-like and the mRNA-like regions of the PKI domain. Loop 3 of the post-translocated state (Structure V) is stabilized by interactions with the β-hairpin loop of uS7 and helix 23 of 18S rRNA in the E site, in a manner reminiscent of that for the E-site tRNA in the 80S*2tRNA*mRNA structure. In the pre-translocation states, however, loop 3 is poorly resolved in density maps. This implies conformational flexibility of loop 3, also reported by biochemical studies of unbound IGR IRESs (Jan and Sarnow, 2002; Pfingsten et al., 2007). Our structures therefore suggest that loop 3 contributes to stabilization of the post-translocation IRES, rationalizing the recent detailed biochemical study (Ruehle et al., (2015) eLife), which reported that IGR IRES mutated constructs with shortened loop 3 are defective in eEF2-catalyzed translocation.REVIEW_INFOparagraph1103312) The interactions between the highly conserved apical loops of SL4 and 5 make critical interactions with eS5 and eS25. In addition, the IRES makes critical interaction with the L1 stalk. These regions of the type IV IRESs are very highly conserved, but no high-resolution information is known for these interactions. Was the local resolution good enough to say how binding these mysterious interactions are achieved, and perhaps how it relates to ribosome conformation, IRES conformation, etc.?REVIEW_INFOparagraph110828We find that the phosphate backbone of SL4 and 5 interact with the positively charged and aromatic residues of eS5 (uS7) and eS25. We have added a description of these interactions in the main text and also Supplementary Figures (Figure 3—figure supplement 2, Figure 3—figure supplement 4) to demonstrate the interactions. In addition, we find that interactions of SL4 and SL5 with the small subunit are somewhat similar to those of the L1 stalk with the small subunit of the hybrid-state 80S*tRNA structure. We have added Figure 3—figure supplement 3 to illustrate this similarity. The interactions between the IRES and the L1 stalk are less well resolved – although the density is strong, the resolution is insufficient to interpret the interactions unambiguously. We therefore refrain from detailed interpretation of L1 stalk interactions.REVIEW_INFOparagraph1116793) Related to the above, it would be interesting to see some more details of how the IRES changes conformation; not just globally, but internally. Is the resolution sufficient to see this? Any mechanistic insight?REVIEW_INFOparagraph111893We now provide a more extensive discussion of IRES local interactions and conformational changes, supplemented by additional illustrations. We report the rearrangements of stem loop 3 (conserved in TSV-like IRESs of group 2: Aparavirus), which resembles a tRNA elbow, as we reported previously. Our current structures indicate that SL3 undergoes rearrangements similar to those of the translocating A-site tRNA (Figure 1—figure supplement 6). In addition, we demonstrate local rearrangements of the “bridge” between the 5’ domain and PKI domain (Figure 3—figure supplement 7). This region interacts with protein uL5 in the two most compact IRES conformations (III and IV), but not in other states. This reveals the stabilizing role of protein uL5 at the intermediate stages of IRES translocation.REVIEW_INFOparagraph1127004) By the very nature of this work, in which 5 structures at near atomic resolution are dissected, the figures are quite dense in information content and individual panels are generally quite small. In addition, the paper is quite long because of the high information content. The general reader can of course skip the detailed sections in the middle and read the Discussion, which is very clear. What seems to be missing for a general reader who wishes to dive into the "information forest" is an outline figure at the beginning that shows the ribosome translation cycle with various subunit motions and tRNA movements indicated. This would certainly help those who do not work in the ribosome field.REVIEW_INFOparagraph113402We have reorganized the panels in most figures to make the figures less dense and increase the sizes of individual panels. We agree that a figure showing ribosome-2tRNA-mRNA and summarizing conformational differences between structures representing various translocation states would be helpful. We now include a supplementary figure, showing ribosome-2tRNAs-mRNA structures (Figure 1—figure supplement 1), which we refer to in the manuscript. We also include the views of tRNA-bound structures in the supplementary figure showing interactions of the A-site finger with the tRNAs and the IRES (Figure 3—figure supplement 6).
