Abstract

Nascent Chains Revealed: Detailed analysis of protein translation and translocation across membranes requires the identification and structural analysis of intermediates involved in these processes (see the Perspective by Kampmann and Blobel ). Seidelt et al. (p. 1412 , published online 29 October) report the visualization by cryo-electron microscopy of a nascent polypeptide chain in the tunnel of the ribosome at 5.8 angstroms. This resolution allows analysis of the conformation and distinct contacts of the nascent chain within the ribosomal tunnel, which suggests a mechanism by which translational stalling is induced by this peptide. Protein translocation across cellular membranes involves the Sec61 protein, a component of a protein-conducting channel. Whether Sec61 acts as a monomer or as an oligomer during protein translocation has been unclear. Becker et al. (p. 1369 , published online 29 October) describe active yeast and mammalian ribosome-Sec61 structures that show the Sec61 complex interacting with the ribosome and a nascent secretory protein signal sequence. The analysis unambiguously reveals that the active protein-conducting channel is a single Sec61 copy with its central pore serving as conduit for the nascent polypeptide.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
