Eukaryotic ribosome assembly, transport and quality control

Abstract: Eukaryotic ribosome synthesis is a complex, energy-consuming process that takes place across the nucleolus, nucleoplasm and cytoplasm and requires more than 200 conserved assembly factors. Here, we discuss mechanisms by which the ribosome assembly and nucleocytoplasmic transport machineries collaborate to produce functional ribosomes. We also highlight recent cryo-EM studies that provided unprecedented snapshots of ribosomes during assembly and quality control.

“…Ribosome assembly is a highly regulated process, involving the proper folding and processing of 4 rRNAs, as well as binding of 79 ribosomal proteins (r-proteins). Assembly is facilitated by over 200 transiently binding assembly factors that promote assembly and quality control, and prevent immature ribosomes from initiating translation prematurely (Kressler et al, 2017;Pena et al, 2017;Warner, 1999;Woolford and Baserga, 2013).…”

“…The substoichiometric presence of eS25 and other RPs on cellular ribosomes tempts the possibility that such compositional alterations are selected for translational control and participate in cellular functions such as tissue diversification (Shi et al, 2017). Yet it is still unclear how and why a cell would produce such heterogeneity given the complex and energy expensive nature of ribosome biogenesis (Klinge and Woolford, 2019;Peña et al, 2017). Potentially supporting this interpretation, a recent study found that maternal ribosomes are sufficient for embryogenesis in C. elegans (Cenik et al, 2019), meaning that functional ribosome heterogeneity in embryonic cell types must occur after assembly and transport.…”

“…RPs do much more than chaperone rRNA maturation concordant with their assembly, and several biogenesis checkpoints exist, providing opportunities for feedback loops to sense proper assembly (Klinge and Woolford, 2019;Peña et al, 2017). The complexity of ribosome biogenesis in eukaryotes is amplified by the existence of the nucleolus-a subnuclear, membraneless organelle that is a key hub for stress sensing (Boulon et al, 2010;Yang et al, 2018).…”

“…Ribosome biogenesis is the best-characterized and primary function of the nucleolus and consists of a series of highly coordinated processes involving diverse factors at different levels. 34 Nucleolus size is also positively associated with rDNA transcription. 35 Because the size and structure of the nucleolus was disrupted upon NOP2 KD as shown above ( Figure 5A), we first quantify the level of ribosome RNAs at the eight-cell stage.…”
