Coupled Transcription-Translation in Prokaryotes: An Old Couple With New Surprises

Mikel Irastortza-Olaziregi et al.

Summary: Coupled transcription-translation (CTT) is a hallmark of prokaryotic gene expression, involved in important gene regulation processes. Despite progress in understanding the cellular signals coordinating CTT, certain aspects of its molecular architecture remain controversial. Studies questioning the occurrence of CTT suggest that transcription and translation can be artificially uncoupled under certain conditions.

Moonlighting Proteins Shine New Light on Molecular Signaling Niches

Ilona Turek et al.

Summary: Plants have developed highly nuanced signaling systems to deal with daily environmental challenges, with moonlighting kinases contributing to cellular signaling cascades by generating cGMP and adding complexity to the system. These moonlighting proteins play roles in the regulation of signaling cascades through the development of localized cGMP-enriched nanodomains, modulating kinase activity and other molecules in protein complexes.

eIF2B conformation and assembly state regulate the integrated stress response

Michael Schoof et al.

Summary: The integrated stress response (ISR) is activated by phosphorylation of translation initiation factor eIF2 in response to various stress conditions. Phosphorylated eIF2 inhibits eIF2B, leading to ISR induction. ISRIB can inhibit ISR even in fully assembled eIF2B decamers, suggesting allosteric communication between distant binding sites.

Coupling of Transcription and Translation in Archaea: Cues From the Bacterial World

Albert Weixlbaumer et al.

Summary: The lack of a nucleus is the defining cellular feature of bacteria and archaea, leading to transcription and translation occurring in the same compartment simultaneously and likely in a coupled fashion. Recent research has revealed detailed structural features of the coupling between a transcribing bacterial RNA polymerase and the trailing translating ribosome in Escherichia coli and Mycoplasma pneumoniae, with the formation of a supercomplex called expressome mediated by physical interactions. This study discusses the requirements and functional implications of transcription-translation coupling in archaea, considering additional processes that potentially influence expressome formation.

Moonlighting Proteins: The Case of the Hexokinases

Carolina Rodriguez-Saavedra et al.

Summary: Moonlighting proteins, like Hexokinase, have multiple unrelated functions in different organisms, with the most common function being a glucose sensor across multiple kingdoms. These proteins play diverse roles, impacting responses to nutritional challenges and disease. Regulation mechanisms can influence their subcellular localization, oligomeric state, and interactions with other molecules, affecting their moonlighting functions.
